We are real people with a real passion.

We are Melissa Blayman and Terri Rosen. Together we have over two decades of experience creating an inclusive, practical, fun learning environment for people who want to learn self defense.

While our primary self defense experience comes from Krav Maga training, we also bring our diverse background of Muay Thai and Scandinavian Defendo to our classes. We have trained under some of the world's most decorated instructors, not only in the martial arts, but in fitness, teacher training, and sports.
