Find the class that fits you
Krav Maga classes Monday to Thursday evenings at 630 Rivermede Rd in Vaughan. Ages 5 to adult. Your first class is free.
Our Vaughan studio offers regular group classes for children from age 5, teens and adults. Women’s self-defence, private lessons and corporate sessions are arranged separately. Your first regular group class is free.
Who Can Join
Men and women train together in the adult class. Children are grouped by age and grade, and are paired accordingly. If you have never done anything like this before, you are the person these classes are built for.
What to Expect in Class
Every class opens with a warm-up. Then the technique of the day is explained and demonstrated properly before anyone is asked to do it. Students pair up and drill it, and the class finishes by putting that technique into a simulation of the situation it is for. Instructors explain each activity and guide students through the practice.
Krav Maga borrows from boxing, wrestling and the combat sports, so you will see strikes, clinch work and escapes that look like MMA. It is one system taught as one class, and there is no separate MMA, karate or kickboxing program here. For the background on where the system comes from, read what the K.A.M.I system is.
Programs and Class Times
This is the schedule in effect from 1 September 2026. Every kids and teens stream trains twice a week: you are placed in one of two groups, Monday and Wednesday, or Tuesday and Thursday.
- JK/SK, ages 5-6 – 5:00 to 5:30 pm, twice a week. 30 minutes.
- Kids, ages 7-9 (Grades 1-3) – 5:30 to 6:15 pm, twice a week. 45 minutes.
- Kids, ages 10-12 (Grades 4-6) – 6:15 to 7:00 pm, twice a week. 45 minutes.
- Teens, ages 13-17 – 7:00 to 8:00 pm, twice a week. One hour.
- Adults, 18 and up – 8:00 to 9:00 pm on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday. One hour.
The kids classes use a belt system, so a child can see the progress they are making instead of taking it on trust. There is more on how the children’s classes are run, and what a parent should expect, on the page for kids Krav Maga classes in Vaughan.
Training that is arranged individually
Four programs sit outside the weekly grid above. They are arranged directly.
Women’s self-defence
K.A.M.I runs a women’s self-defence program. It is not one of the weekly streams listed above, so the dates are set separately. Call 416-562-0670 and we will tell you what is running and what it costs.
Corporate and group training
K.A.M.I runs Krav Maga sessions for workplaces and teams. These are arranged individually rather than run on the weekly schedule. Call 416-562-0670 with your group size and what you want the session to cover.
Private one-on-one training
One instructor, one student, built around what you want to work on. All ages. A private hour is $120 plus tax, and privates are booked a session at a time rather than as a standing class.
K.A.M.I instructor course
An advanced course regulated by the K.A.M.I Association of Israel and the Wingate Institute. It ends in a certificate that qualifies you to teach Krav Maga formally. Dates, duration, eligibility and cost are confirmed for each course. Call 416-562-0670 to register your interest for the next one.

Questions we get asked
Is the first class really free?
Yes. One class, free, with no commitment and nothing to pay on the day. You train in the class that matches your age, do the same warm-up and drills as everyone else, and decide afterwards. Wear comfortable workout clothes and bring water. No advance booking is required. Check the current timetable for your age group; call 416-562-0670 if you need help.
What does it cost to train here?
Regular membership is $200/month month-to-month, $180/month on a 3-month term ($540 total), $160/month on a 6-month term ($960 total), or $140/month on a 12-month term ($1,680 total), before tax. The one-time $300 starter package covers registration, a full uniform and the first year of association membership. It is payable when you join. Association renewal is $70/year. All prices are before tax. The regular family discount is $20/month off every family membership, including the first. A paid drop-in is $40 before tax; a private hour is $120 plus tax.
How young can a child start?
Five. The JK/SK class is for ages 5 and 6, runs 30 minutes and meets twice a week at 5:00 pm. Children move up by grade after that: Grades 1 to 3 train at 5:30 pm, Grades 4 to 6 at 6:15 pm. If you are not sure your child is ready, bring them to the free class and watch it.
Do I need to be fit or have any experience?
No. Classes are open to every fitness level and every training background, and no prior Krav Maga knowledge is needed. Beginners start in the same class as everyone else and are shown the movement before they are asked to do it. Come to the free class and see where you are, because that is what it is for.
What should I wear and bring?
Comfortable workout clothes and water. Everything else is here for your first class. Members get a full uniform as part of the $300 starter package, so there is nothing to buy before you start and nothing to buy to try a class. If you are coming to watch rather than train, just come as you are.
Do you run classes on weekends?
No. Group classes run Monday to Thursday evenings only, with no regular weekend group classes. If a weekday evening does not work for you, call 416-562-0670 and ask about private training, which is arranged one session at a time rather than on the weekly schedule.
