Krav Maga Yashir Boston is a full time Krav Maga training facility located in Woburn, Massachusetts – just north of the city of Boston itself. It is located just off of I-93 and I-95, making it extremely convenient to get to. The school also has ample free on-site parking. The school is run by Head Instructor Gershon Ben Keren, a 5th Degree Black Belt, who received many of his teaching certifications and grades in Israel. The Krav Maga system we teach is referred to as Krav Maga Yashir, meaning, “Direct Contact Combat” in Hebrew. It stays true to and utilizes the fundamental principles and concepts of Krav Maga and follows the same goal/mission of the Krav Maga that is taught in the IDF (Israeli Defense Force); to get an untrained individual combat ready in the shortest possible time. Our goal is to get those who train with us ready to deal with the situations and scenarios they are likely to face in the shortest possible time.
Our classes run Monday through Thursday, as well as Saturdays. We have daytime classes as well as evening ones, which means there are a lot of different opportunities to train. Anyone, wishing to train at the school/facility must first take one of our 60-minute introductory Krav Maga classes (upcoming dates and times are shown on the registration form at the bottom of the page). In these 60-minute seminars/classes you will be introduced to the underpinning concepts and fighting ideas that provide the foundation of the approach and go towards making it such an effective and devastating fighting system. You will also be taught some of the common training drills and exercises we use along with how to hold different pads in a way which is safe for you and the people you train with.
