In a world that is constantly changing, it is on us to stay ahead of the curve. Unfortunately, sometimes the world does not change for the better as we see with the prevalence of Active Killer scenarios occurring throughout the United States. Where deranged attackers are taking advantage of good people when and where they feel safest, the Active Killer Defense® (AKD) program teaches the common citizen how to effectively respond to combat these horrific attacks.
There is no question that long-term solutions are needed to prevent these events from occurring in the first place. Krav Oz believes that these long-term solutions should be sought after and methodically planned and implemented. However, in the mean time, citizens need solutions to be able to defend themselves and their loved ones in a moment of crisis. The AKD® program is agnostic of political or social labels and teaches only what matters when the worst occurs.
No matter how much we as a society hate that we have to start addressing these events, it is our responsibility to do so. Unfortunately, there still exists a significant gap between the training that is currently offered and the training that is needed. The current “Run – Hide – Fight” mentality has largely been accepted as best practice in response to an active killer. However, what we have seen in these school shootings, and especially in recent attacks, is that the people committing these crimes are counting on the school protocol and procedures and using them to their advantage.
However, the AKD® program looks to address these training gaps by offering a more holistic and realistic approach to training. Broken into five distinct sections, the AKD® seminar is designed to arm participants with the tools and mentality needed to effectively respond during an active killer event.
Training takes a “Crawl – Walk – Run” approach and develops skill within each participant in a safe, fast, and effective manner.
The Active Killer Defense® program is designed for everyone, regardless of skill, physical fitness, or experience. Our goal as an organization is to make our community safer in any and every way that we can.
The AKD® course is approximately six hours and is offered to all school employees (public and private) for free. Non-school employees pay a nominal fee.
*Our next seminar is on May 5th from 10-4. School employees use code AKDCOMP20 at checkout to train for free. REGISTER HERE
Last month, I was only going to sign up my 12 year old son but decided to sign up after taking an introductory class. Every class is different and I am learning something new each time. Chantell and Ehren are awesome trainers that push us to do our best. I would definitely recommend Krav Oz LLC to my family and friends!
I took a Women's Self Defense class with Chantell in July and instantly felt a need to continue. A few days later I signed a 12 month contract. I can't believe how far I've come since day one. Chantell and Ehren are amazing instructors. They are so passionate about what they do. Every class is better than the last. I’m constantly talking about my training with my friends and family. I would highly recommend Krav Oz LLC. I don’t know how they do it but I leave every class with a huge smile on my face. Thank you, Chantell and Ehren!
I recently attended Krav Oz's Self Defense seminar in Rockville - and it was fantastic! A comprehensive four hours covering everything I could want, and at just the right speed to keep me and the other attendees challenged and engaged. From start to finish, Chantell and Ehren provided excellent instruction; without sacrificing the skill and passion they possess for their field, Chantell and Ehren created an encouraging and stimulating environment fueled by real life, practical examples in the lecture portion, and helpful analogies to make the defense moves in the self-defense portion hit home (pun intended). In short, this seminar was one from which all could benefit - whether you've never heard of Krav Maga, or have spent years on the mats. Can't wait to come check out a class!
