Meet the Team
At Striker’s Edge Krav Maga and Combat Academy, we believe real-world self-defense should be practical, effective and empowering for everyone-kids, teens, adults, and families. Founded in 2024, our academy was built on the mission of teaching everyday people how to recognize danger, stay aware, and defend themselves and their loved ones with confidence.

My passion for Krav Maga comes from a lifetime of facing challenges head-on and knowing what it mean to fight for yourself. As a domestic abuse survivor, Ive seen firsthand how powerful self-defense training can be-not just physically, but mentally and emotionally. Striker’s Edge is more than a school; it’s a community where discipline, mutual respect, and resilience thrive.
