YOUR INSTRUCTOR







My name is Darren Selley. I am the senior instructor at South London Urban Krav Maga.

I qualified as an Urban Krav Maga instructor in 2009, under Stewart McGill (founder and Chief Instructor of Urban Krav Maga) and Leo Negao (four times Brazilian Jiu Jitsu world champion, Vale Tudo veteran and Chief Instructor of numerous MMA schools throughout Europe).

Leo is also the UK representative for Team Minatauro, having had extensive training experience with Minatauro Nogueira, Anderson Silva, Vitor Belfort and others.

You will find me on the British Combat Association register of Self Protection Instructors.

I am a keen bodybuilder, having had an interest in bodybuilding and weight lifting since the tender age of 13.

My martial arts background consists of Krav Maga, Muay Thai and of course, Urban Krav Maga. I also have some experience of training within Combat Sambo, the russian wrestling sytem.

I started my Krav Maga training with Stewart McGill in 2004, under the IKMF (International Krav Maga Federation) and IKMA (Israeli Krav Maga Association) systems.

I have had the pleasure of training with world renowned Krav Maga expert (and U.S. IKMA Chief Instructor) David Kahn.

Before discovering Krav Maga, I had ambitions of combining various systems (Muay Thai, Aikido, Combat Sambo, Kyoshu Jitsu) to form my own, but what I found was a system that did just that, better than any other on the planet.

Urban Krav Maga takes the Israeli fighting system a step further in the UK and provides defences against the most common attacks we may face, according to national police forces.

With a vastly improved groundfighting system, and a focus on leverage it arms the practitioner with the abilty to defend themselves in almost any scenario.

I am passionate about Urban Krav Maga and I am passionate about providing the best self defence training to people that wish to protect themselves and their loved ones.

There is no better feeling than to know that you are helping to increase people's confidence and improve their quality of life.

I train regularly with Stewart McGill and Leo Negao to continually improve and push the boundaries of my own abilities, performance and qualities as an Urban Krav Maga instructor.

I truly believe in this system and I also believe that every person should have the knowledge and the right to defend themselves and their fellow human being against any form of abuse or attack.

The only thing standing in the way is reality-based self defence training - and Urban Krav Maga is the answer.
