Nashville Krav Maga Major Announcement

We have exciting news to share with all of our Krav Maga members! Following months of time, energy, and effort, we are very excited to finally announce the opening of our new retail center! We take possession of a new, standalone facility on Friday, June 1.
On Monday June 4th we will celebrate our first class in our new center located at 4200 Kenilwood Dr. Nashville, TN 37204.

The location is off I-65 between Armory exit and Harding Place Exit.

We very much apologize for all the inconveniences you have endured during these months. We also appreciate your continued patience in this month of May while we transition to our new permanent home. All of us at Nashville very much appreciate our members who have stuck with us during these challenging times and shown strong patience with tight training spaces, poor parking and may other challenges.

Unfortunately, due to forces beyond our control – Effective Thursday May 3rd we will NO LONGER have classes at our FIT Nashville location. We will conduct classes for the month of May at the Cool Springs YMCA at 121 Seaboard Ln. Class times will be Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday starting at 6:30 pm. At 7:30 pm on those days, we will hold heavy bag classes as well. This will give an introduction to a padded training floor for the Nashville participants and a heavy bag class for the Cool Springs members.

In addition to these training days, beginning on Saturday, May 12 we will hold classes from 9-10:30 am in a different park each week throughout Nashville. This is a pilot program that will encompass all we do at Nashville Krav Maga – fitness, self-defense, and real world, scenario based training. Self-defense doesn’t occur in a gym and neither should our training be limited to the gym! The site for next week’s training will be posted/announced on our Facebook page prior to that Saturday’s event. This is a great opportunity to test your skills and expose your friends and family to what real self defense looks like. This is a pilot program for future training events – if it works, look for more of this in the future after we enter our new space. You have an opportunity to guide the direction of the training!

In addition to the new facility, we are building on a foundation begun by Patrick Terry when he brought Krav Maga to the Nashville area several years ago. The new organization will use that foundation, add local management, a new training space, and your input to create the premier self defense training in the area!

Last, but not least, a big THANKS is due to all of our members. Without you there is no Nashville Krav Maga. Many more changes are coming to our school. Thank you again for your patience in this transitional time and for your continued support. Stay tuned to your email and our Facebook page, Mid-South Krav Maga Nashville (currently), for updates and information.
