Krav Maga/Self-Defense

Charleston, WV

At Butch Hiles BJJ & MMA, LLC, we provide one of the best self-defense systems around. Our program combines many different styles and arts into one comprehensive system that’s easy for anyone to do and learn.


Krav Maga is the most devastating fighting system/Self Defence or protection system in the world.

Krav Maga is not a sport, it is a system based on principles and concepts. In Krav Maga, you’ll learn to defeat unarmed attackers, rapidly resolve ground fights, and deal with knives and guns. Additionally, you’ll learn how to debilitate your opponent rapidly irrespective of his size, training background or experience level. Most importantly the system can be learned quickly and applied under extreme stress.

The system is based on simple and reflexive moves that work when you need them to. As a constantly evolving system the effectiveness of techniques is constantly tested, evaluated and developed.

There is no doubt about the fact that Krav Maga originated in Israel. It is also a fact that Krav Maga has evolved so much from the original style that it is difficult to say which style is the best. In fact, this can only be proven in a life threathening situation.

Krav Maga isn’t about 400 techniques, kata’s and fancy moves. “If it looks great, it’s probably not Krav Maga”. Krav Maga is raw, brutal, fast, effective.

Krav Maga continues to develop, promote, and implement self-defense and fitness programs that help people “Get in shape and go home safe.”

You will also learn self-defense that the legendary Gracie family made popular combined with other traditional things from Muay Thai, boxing, wrestling, and more. We want everyone as prepared as possible!
