The Krav Maga Den Haag team

Our instructors are IKMF certified. To maintain this high level they train on a regular basis and follow, several times a year, special in-service training for instructors, organized by the Global Instructor Team (GIT) of the IKMF. This team examines both our instructors as our students on different occasions a year. Thus ensuring the level of quality and content of training at Krav Maga Den Haag.

I remember that a number of violent incidents in the media made me think: what would I do in such situations? What can you do, and most importantly, what should you not do? Therefore in 2013, I started training Krav Maga., a self-defense system known for its effectiveness and simplicity. After several years of intensive training and on the recommendation of my instructor Bart van de Wiel, I followed, and successfully completed, the IKMF ‘Civil Krav Maga Instructor’-course in 2016. Since then I’ve worked as an instructor at Krav Maga Den Haag.

Bart van de Wiel

As a youngster I was already very interested in martial arts. So I started with judo, followed by Taekwondo and after that a long period Jiu-Jitsu reaching the black belt level. One day, more or less by accident, I walked into the ‘Silent Dragon’, a Krav Maga school in Delft, which name later changed in ‘Rayo sports’. In the beginning I was quite skeptical, because the philosophy of the Krav Maga system fundamentally differs from that of the traditional Asian martial arts that I had practiced until then. After a month of training I concluded that Krav Maga offered the best solution when it comes to realistic and executable self-defense. So in 2009 I started training Krav Maga seriously via IKMF. Presently I am a certified civil instructor, kids instructor, woman StayAway instructor and security instructor (different specializations within the IKMF). The passion and joy I experience with Krav Maga motivated me to start Krav Maga Den Haag and develop my FunFightFit-training for children. Besides Krav Maga I also successfully completed the Movisie- and ‘teacher self-defense’-training. And my love for teaching children motivated me to also do the psychophysical training ‘Rots and Water’ and the IKMF Krav Maga kids-instructor course. Today I enjoy giving training and lessons via Krav Maga Den Haag, in The Hague, Rijswijk en Wateringen, including special training for the elderly, security guards, teens, kids, woman, private lessons and corporate training. All this in combination with my part time teaching job at a high school.

At an introduction seminar of Krav Maga Den Haag in 2012, I fell in love with Krav Maga. The enthusiasm I felt then never left me. So I started training passionately and graduated for P4. Since 2 years I am assistant-instructor at the FunFightFit-lessons. In addition to my own training I find it great to help children develop their resilience and confidence with Krav Maga. And ofcourse that they have fun while doing serious training.

After a number of years of intensive fitness training, I thought it was time for “something else”. Self-defense has always been high on my wish list and after some research and reading, the realistic and effective character of Krav Maga appealed to me. After having done a trial lesson in 2016 at Krav Maga The Hague, I was immediately enthusiastic and Krav Maga has become an integral part of my life. In 2019 I decided to transfer my passion and pleasure, but of course also the self-defense system with the tools belonging to Krav Maga, to others. In the meantime I have therefore successfully completed the Civil Instructor Course and the Kids Instructor Course of the IKMF and other specializations will follow in the future.
