PREPARE TO DEFEND YOURSELF IN ANY SITUATION
Nobody wants to be the victim of a crime, and yet it happens to people every day. The best way to avoid being harmed is to know how to defend yourself. Our Krav Maga program works with your natural instincts and turns them into powerful moves that allow you to drive attackers away.
Banish stress and get fit while learning self defense moves you could use to keep yourself and your loved ones from harms way.

I’ve been in martial arts for most of my life and I’ve never found a more welcoming dojo. With professional, knowledgeable, qualified and fun instructors. I’ve been apart of this family for just over 3 years and I have not regretted a single second.

I’ve been wanting to learn martial arts for the past 5 years and have always been intimidated to start. I didn’t know anything about self defense and wasn’t even sure how to choose a martial art or dojo. Luckily I found this place! This wonderful adult program teaches VERY practical self defense skills while appreciating the traditional and cultural aspects of kenpo. Sensei Moss and the other instructors love their art and love to teach. That is evident by the robust class attendance and family atmosphere. Men, women, old, young, black belts through white belts (me). No need to be intimidated, we are all learning. Come join us!

North County Self Defense is so good on so many levels. Shihan Moss is a powerful presence and created a welcoming, encouraging, productive — and fun — dojo for us here in North County. The instructors are caring, highly skilled, and great teachers who make you want to do well and learn more. They are especially good with kids, and warmly encourage character development in addition to the skills of martial arts/self-defense. The students who attend — a wide-range of beautiful folks — are fun to be around and clearly share a love of the dojo. Shihan Moss is also very community-oriented, which is awesome to see in a business. About three years into kempo karate classes, special training like active shooter scenarios and other offerings, I can say I am much better equipped to take care of myself and those around me. The overall training is good discipline mentally, physically, and spiritually. This is good practice, and this place is the real deal. You will likely LOVE North County Self Defense if you give it a try!
