What our members say
Real reviews from adults and parents who train with us in Togher.
“Brilliant place to train! I used to go to the Gym 3-4 nights a week and used to dread going most of the time. Since joining Institute Krav Maga Cork, i now look forward my training sessions. Great instructor and very welcoming members.”
Billy O'Connor“Highly recommend this place! My daughter goes here and absolutely loves it. The instructors are brilliant with the kids—they teach real confidence and safety skills in a fun, welcoming environment.”
Aristo Jose“Love attending this club since I started. I’ve never done any martial arts or self defence before, but even at 54 years of age, you are never too old to try something different.”
