Dear SMART Krav Maga Community,
As we close another Krav Maga year, we want to acknowledge the natural rhythm of our community. Some members who have been with us for years are moving on, while new faces continue to join and grow with us. We’re thankful for everyone who trained with us in 2025 and contributed to the spirit of the group. If you enjoy training with us, January is the perfect time to share that experience and invite someone you know to join.
🤝 Trial Classes & Bring-a-Friend — January 2026
January is all about opening the doors and welcoming new people into the community.
📅 Weeks 3, 4 & 5 of 2026
We’ll be offering free trial classes, promoted via Meetup:
👉 https://www.meetup.com/brussels-self-defense-krav-maga-meetup/
💥 Bring-a-friend bonus:
If your friend becomes a member, you receive one month of free training.
You know best what makes this training valuable — feel free to share it with someone who might benefit from it.
💪 End-of-Year Level Test — Congratulations
Congratulations to all students who successfully passed the end-of-year level test 🎉
Level tests are about more than techniques or grades. They are about staying focused under pressure, trusting your training, and continuing even when things feel challenging. Well done to everyone who stepped up and finished the year strong.

🎄 Holiday Break & First Training of 2026
We hope everyone is enjoying a well-deserved holiday break.
📅 First training 2026: January 6th, 2026
We’re looking forward to starting the new year together — focused and motivated.
