Introduction: Hi, my name is Adam, I'm a Self-Defense Instructor (Krav Maga System) that has taught group classes, private lessons and corporate workshops for over 10 years. I thrive in helping you become mentally and physically confident by teaching you how to protect yourself against various modern day threats/attacks by training you how to respond in a way that is practical and natural to the human mind and body. We have natural responses that react to various threats that a lot of times hinders people from fully defending themselves - in your training you will begin to build new neural pathways, developing muscle memory, connecting the mind and body to then respond in a successful manner. Through different training drills, you will begin to learn to defend under pressure and rely on muscle memory to take care of the initial threat and get you to a place of safety. Due to the nature of unforeseen confrontations in an unpredictable world, one does not have the time to have their hands wrapped and gloves put on before they engage in an unwanted threat/attack. Nor are there rules and referees to stop a physical altercation if things get bad. You will learn how to properly throw and defend against various strikes, knowing how to strike with your fist in the proper position with no gloves or when to use a palm heel strike, among other tools. As you progress, you will also learn how to protect yourself against various threats whether armed(i.e. knives, sticks, guns, etc.) or unarmed(i.e. punches, kicks, grabs, chokes, etc.). Also, even more importantly, teaching you situational awareness and psychological warfare to get you out of certain situations. Along with learning these skills, you will gain the following: - Confidence - Mind/Body Connection - Strength - Muscle - Stamina - Mobility - Your Senses Will Heighten - And More! Please contact me if you are interested in private, group, or corporate lessons. Thank you for your time and consideration. Stay safe!

Adam Minter’s self defense lessons are worth the investment! He is very precise and willing to work with all body sizes, all levels, and helps women become confident in their skills to defend themselves. He also teaches a lot of self awareness tips. He has taught myself and my two teenage girls how to not walk in fear as a woman, but to feel empowered and confident in the skills he has taught us! Great for teenagers about to go into college or jobs that require being alone with clients like realtors.

There could not be a better instructor to teach and educate a skill that everyone should have understanding on! There is very few people I would trust in this role but Adam was one of a kind and a life changing program!

Ive been doing krav for awhile and it’s a great fun hobbie, but also very beneficial. I think everyone should learn because it is used in your everyday life.

Learning Krav Maga with Mr. Minter has made me feel safer and more secure in knowing I can protect myself as a young woman. He does a perfect job of creating an informative and professional environment. Would highly recommend working with him!
