WHO ARE WE?

At Resilience, we help people feel safe in their bodies, connected to themselves, and powerful in their lives.
We run inclusive group classes in Kings Heath, plus practical workshops for businesses and education across Birmingham and the Midlands.
​
If you want a completely personalised approach, I also offer bespoke private 1:1 and small group Resilience Coaching.
​
Our physical training is rooted in Krav Maga - a practical system designed for real-life situations - but I believe true resilience goes beyond surviving a physical threat. That’s why my coaching blends self-defence with functional fitness, nutrition, and mindset.
Depending on how you choose to train with me or the club, the focus includes:
-
Practical Self-Defence: awareness, boundary setting, de-escalation, and Krav Maga-based skills (striking, defences, grabs, weapon threats, ground defences, and protecting others).
-
Functional Fitness: building strength, stamina, and mobility so you feel capable and energetic in everyday life.
-
Nutrition & Wellbeing: learning how to fuel your body and regulate stress without rigid diets, macho bootcamp rules, or burnout.
-
Mindset & Confidence: building calm under pressure so you can stay grounded, make good decisions, and act with confidence. ​
*(Everything taught regarding physical self-defence is strictly aligned with UK self-defence law).*​​

WHY TRAIN WITH US?
We understand that self-defence and fitness aren’t just about what you can do physically - they’re about what you believe you’re capable of.
​
Training with us is a powerful way to reconnect with your body, reframe how you see yourself, and support your mental health.
​
Our environment is friendly, relaxed, and genuinely ego-free — with plenty of support to help you keep safe, feel great, and live fearlesslyâš¡
