Two simple membership options at Krav Maga Auckland — Core for most members, Progression for those who want extra support as they work toward more advanced training.
Most people try a class before joining — but you can sign up directly if you'd prefer.
Krav Maga Auckland membership costs $150 a month for Core or $175 a month for Progression — both month-to-month, with no long contract. Both include the same internationally recognised curriculum and direct coaching from certified instructors at the Birkenhead academy.
Instructor Aaron has trained directly under Master Eyal Yanilov — the founder of the international system taught at Krav Maga Auckland — at 17+ international camps. It's the same curriculum taught at certified schools in more than 60 countries, taught here the way it was designed to be taught.
Awareness, de-escalation, and physical techniques designed to work in real situations — not sport, not theory.
Most members notice changes in fitness, focus, and confidence within their first few months — not just in training, but in everyday life.
Beginners welcome from session one. Structured onboarding included in your first month, with direct coaching from certified instructors throughout.
Both memberships give you the same internationally recognised curriculum and direct coaching from certified instructors. Month-to-month, no long contract — cancel any time.
Direct coaching from certified instructors and the same curriculum taught internationally. Train two to three sessions a week — the pace where most members see consistent progress.
Everything in Core, plus extra support and inclusions for members working toward more advanced training.
Not sure which is right for you? Most members start on Core — you can upgrade to Progression at any time.
A trial class tells you more than any page can. You'll meet the instructors, train with the existing members, and see exactly how the classes run — before you decide whether to join.
Book a Trial ClassNo equipment needed. No prior experience required.
Recommended, not required. Most people book a trial class first so they can meet the instructors, see the academy, and experience how training actually feels before committing to membership. If you're already certain you want to join, you can sign up directly via the membership options above.
Core is $150 a month, Progression is $175. Both are month-to-month with no long contract, and both include direct coaching from certified instructors plus the same internationally taught curriculum. At two sessions a week — the pace most members train — that works out around $20 a class.
Three things, for $25 more a month. Core gives you all standard Core classes — Saturday morning, Monday and Wednesday evening. Progression adds all grading assessments included at no extra fee, full video portal access for studying technique outside class, and an extended Wednesday session (7:30–8pm) for students who've progressed past beginner level — this session is exclusive to Progression members, even for Core members at the same stage. Most members start on Core. Progression suits members who are working toward the next stage and want extra support getting there.
Yes, any time. Upgrade from Core to Progression whenever you're ready, or downgrade if Core suits you better. Most members start on Core and stay there. Some upgrade to Progression as they advance through the curriculum and start working toward gradings.
Yes — two complimentary guest visits per member, every term. Bring a different training partner each time, or the same one twice. It's a good way to get someone off the fence without them having to book a trial class themselves.
47 Birkenhead Avenue, Birkenhead — on Auckland's North Shore. The entrance is down the external stairs to the right of the Superette, with Highbury Mall parking directly opposite (check the posted parking conditions). It's easy to reach from the wider North Shore and the Harbour Bridge.
No — membership only. Consistent training is what builds real capability, so Krav Maga Auckland runs on a membership model rather than drop-ins. The trial class is the way to experience training without committing to membership — after that, the next step is one of the membership options above.
Most people start with a trial class. If you already know you want to join, sign up directly.
