What they say
"Sarah was fantastic - she came to our office to run a self defence taster session with our lady's society, and they absolutely loved it! She brings incredible energy and in-depth knowledge of both the law and Krav Maga practice, which she condensed down into this bite-sized, basics session. The group came away feeling empowered and inspired, and were raving about it the following day. I would highly recommend Sarah for any company or group or women and men to teach about boundaries and self defence. Sarah also carried out health and safety checks and was very safety conscious during the session".
" I didn't quite know what to expect when I started training with Sarah, but the outcome was amazing! It boasted my confidence, I learned how to defend myself and to hit, but most of all, had so much fun whist making new friends." - L.M
“The training has been about increasing my awareness, while diffusing threats and counter attacking as soon as possible, at the most vulnerable parts of the body with a constant stream of moves. I got that in my head within three sessions and since then I love practising it in open spaces with Sarah. While I’m getting an intense workout that no gym class can give you. Confidence, stamina, strength and the newfound will to fight harder, is what you get through Sarah’s teaching and that’s worth a lot.” - Y.B
“ I felt great afterwards: inspired, empowered and in control… The added advantage is that I may also be able to stand against the often so-many occurrences of injustice in ordinary every day life - if I choose to do so: I’m not planning to be a ‘defender of the public’ but it is not nice to see people, particularly women, victimised or subject the to unnecessary discomfort of unwanted (male) attention.” A.W
“I love it! Empowering, challenging, physical!” - T.S
“Thank you for another quality session. new challenges, learning new solutions. Great teacher!“ G.J
“Sarah’s training style is challenging and varied and we have the opportunity to build up on skills as we keep drilling the fundamentals while we learned new stuff. By the end of the course everyone felt confident on some of the fundamentals, and very confident on the benefits of practising a realistic self-defence system" - H.H
“Thank you so much for your great teaching, done with dedication and a great sense of humour!” - G.G

She is a tour- de -force, the most compassionate, warm, delightful and skilled teacher a girl could want. I strongly recommend her.“ - J.G
"...excellent therapy as well as self defence! A totally different way of working with tension, motor memory, instincts, discipline and spatial awareness - a good use of aggression, physicality and controlled technique. Brilliant!

It has been a great experience and we also have alot of laughs together.”

“Our staff asked for something different, more useful from a team building day, they got it. Thank you.” - H.J. PR company London.
“I like the theory and approach to it - i.e. de-escalate a situation if you can - it’s not all about the fight.” -S.F
“I started recently a job in a prison. As part of the induction I had to attend training on personal protection. I found their self-defence techniques quite unrealistic for my size as I am petite. Luckily for me I was already attending classes and learning realistic self-defence techniques for realistic situations!“ - H.H
‘I enjoyed the women-only classes taught by a female teacher, because we could enjoy a safe environment and build a little community and have a laugh together while we learned!” - H.H

“I highly recommend training with Sarah Brendlor to anybody who wants to feel a little more confident walking down the street at night. Whereas it is always important to be street savvy, knowing some of these moves cannot hurt, except possibly your attacker !” - J.S
"Sarah hold's the space so well and gets the best out of all the students in a safe, focussed, very professional and warm environment. "- G.J
“Thank you for the self-defence session you held at our recent girls scouts neighbourhood event. Even though it was a large group of over 50 girl, you single-handedly kept the group interested and participating throughout. Even some of the adult leaders joined in. I’m sure the girls all learned something valuable about self-awareness and protection from this one brief session. It was fun too! Many thanks.” - M and R, leaders of Girl Scouts of America in London
"I found the session very useful, Sarah explained clearly several key techniques (both verbal and physical) we could use and most importantly she gave us the confidence to use them effectively. - CGG
“T.K. - It was ‘fun and very amusing and we did a lot of movements… and I enjoyed myself. Sarah was fun and helped us when we needed it. 9.5/10
S.A. - It was ‘fun and very good experience and very helpful… 8/10 thank you!
R.L. – ‘It was good… it was excellent… [I learnt a good kicking technique but] I just need to put a bit more power into it.’ 11/10
J.A. - I like the session because the lady is not crazy, because the people who usually do (self -defence) stuff, they usually go crazy when people don’t get it right and they’ll feel like fighting us as well and she had the ability to fight us, but she didn’t do it so that’s what I liked, she’s not crazy (also)… It was fun and I was able to learn some stuff out of it, like how to defend myself. 10/10 “
- Students 13-15 London
“My son was mugged twice (for his phone), the training has given him the confidence to face school, he’s got more focus throught the extra physical outlet. I’m happy for him.” - L.M
"A big thank you for the fantastic job you did facilitating the session. The energy and vision that you brought to the session definitely helped to create something special. It was so informative, and your insights were extremely valuable."
"A bit scary but quite sensible'- Anon
