THE STORM COMBAT ADVANTAGE
HARD CORE SELF-DEFENCE
ON AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT LEVEL
BECOME A HUMAN WALKING WEAPON
AND A QUADRUPLE THREAT

KRAV MAGA teaches you to defend against almost any type of attack scenario.
STREET BJJ (Brazilian Jiu Jitsu minus the rules) takes over when the fight goes to the ground.
FMA / KALI teaches you to fight proficiently with a knife as well as a stick or baton. A weapon is a great force leveler, but owning a weapon and knowing how to fight with one are two entirely different things.
MMA/BOXING teaches you to move, strike, evade and block like a combat sports athlete.
​
Put all of this together and have the trained ability to transition seamlessly from one combat system to another, and you have a formidable set of skills.
​
This is why our students have a reputation for their world class skills.
​
The great news is that this can be learned by anyone of any age and fitness level, providing they are willing to put in the work.

I cannot express enough how amazing my experience has been at Storm Combat! As a beginner with no prior experience in boxing, I was hesitant to join a martial arts dojo. However, after hearing great things about Storm Combat and meeting the incredible head coach Ivana Ries, I knew I had to give it a try.Not only did Storm Combat provide me with an incredible workout, but I was also able to achieve my goal of becoming a boxer in less than 6 months! Ivana is an incredible teacher who is patient, kind, and truly dedicated to her students' success. Her passion for martial arts is contagious, and she makes every class fun and exciting.After training with Ivana and the team at Storm Combat, I was able to enter my first white-collar boxing match with confidence. I was amazed at how much progress I had made in such a short amount of time. The match was exhilarating, and I was able to TKO my opponent after just two rounds! I couldn't have done it without the incredible training I received at Storm Combat.I would highly recommend Storm Combat to anyone looking to learn martial arts, get in shape, or achieve a new fitness goal. The dojo is extremely welcoming and friendly, and everyone is patient and supportive of each other's journey. Whether you are a beginner or have prior experience in martial arts, Ivana and the team at Storm Combat will help you achieve your goals and become the best version of yourself. Don't hesitate - come check out Storm Combat today!

In a country where every man should be prepared to protect their loved ones, I wouldn't recommend a better place not just to start, but to stay and keep striving for excellence too.
That's my experience and that's my truth.
Truly blessed to be here.

If you are looking for top class, usable coaching you can't do better than Storm!
No time wasted on meaningless, repetitive, choreographed fighting techniques that have little place in the real life scenario. Rather Storm focuses on practical self defence and counter attacks against what you are likely to face in the real world.
Ivana Ries coaches with street defence in mind, at a pace that is easy to follow in an environment that is friendly and welcoming to all. Her knowledge and dedication are unmatched in my view, and she effortlessly combines the best from each style into her formidable Krav Maga classes.
Whether you are an absolute beginner looking to defend yourself, if reqd, in this ever increasingly violent world, or a seasoned martial artist looking to expand or blend your knowledge, I can guarantee you a fantastic learning experience.
Cannot recommend Ivana and Storm enough, no matter what your age, knowledge or physical condition!

GARCIA
I walked into this Dojo bodybuilder strong, but with no fight training. I was nervous about physical confrontation from fights in the past, but I desperately wanted to learn combat sports.This club gave me the opportunity to try multiple disciplines before finding my niche in the Storm Combat Fight Squad. Boxing & BJJ have become my focus disciplines.Head Coach, Ivana Ries, has helped me to see combat like moves and counter moves in a Chess match. Ivana gets her students to think calmly and clearly about what needs to be done, using a problem solving approach to combat. As a fighter, I'm confident in the techniques she teaches because we to put them to the test daily, sparring and rolling against multiple opponents.The comradery between the Fight Squad members is unique to this gym. The team spirit is what motivated me to join the squad and compete.Storm Combat can be credited with training me from base zero and turning me into a weapon.
