About Champions Krav Maga Academy Brisbane | Self-Defence & Martial Arts Gym
Champions Krav Maga Academy is a Holland Park self-defence and martial arts gym where building real-world confidence goes hand in hand with getting fit. Training out of St Matthews Church Hall on Logan Road, the academy has built a glowing reputation on the Brisbane southside for a friendly, tight-knit community where everyone supports each other.
The heart of the academy is practical Krav Maga, taught across striking, clinch, jiu-jitsu and weapons defence, alongside mixed martial arts and a dedicated women's self-defence focus. Members regularly describe how starting from zero activity gave them the motivation to stay fit, eat well and feel genuinely capable of protecting themselves and others. Beginners are welcomed and quickly find themselves hooked.
With structured adult beginner and advanced classes plus youth programs for kids and teens, it caters to the whole family. There are no joining fees and no lock-in contracts, and newcomers can book a free intro class and academy tour. For southside locals wanting self-defence that is challenging, well-structured and fun, Champions Krav Maga is a top pick.
