WHO ARE WE?
We are Resilience, a vibrant self defence club in Birmingham, and our mission is to enhance your safety, increase your fitness, and boost your confidence - empowering you to handle any confrontation.
We welcome everyone - all ages, sizes, backgrounds - and we especially love beginners.
We are completely LGBTQ+ inclusive, have a proud history of supporting neurodivergent students, and are a great environment for anyone else who doesn't fit the mould or worries about fitting in with the mainstream.
Join us in our safe, supportive space, and let's kick some pads together!
We offer self defence classes in Birmingham, including private 1-1 sessions, small group training, and tailored workshops for businesses and education.
We base what we teach on Krav Maga, a practical, full-contact martial art designed for real-life situations, focusing on natural responses to danger. We cover striking, defenses against punches and kicks, releases from grabs, ground fighting, handling armed attackers, multiple aggressors, and protecting others—all aligned with UK self-defense laws.
Training with us is a great way to reconnect with your body, reclaim your physicality, and reframe how you see yourself. You'll be moving around, smashing pads, blowing off steam, and building skills. Each session is a great workout, training with good people, and you'll be buzzing by the end of class.
Our structured classes follow a concise curriculum, are relaxed and ego-free, with friendly instruction and plenty of encouragement. We will help you keep safe, feel great, and live fearlessly!
