Victory Karate: Armed Forces Discounts
May is National Military Appreciation Month — a declaration encouraging U.S. citizens to observe unity. We honor current and former U.S. Armed Forces members, including those who died pursuing freedom.
Every month, Victory Karate honors past and present soldiers with a 10 percent membership discount. We have a long history of supporting US Armed Forces and proudly continue this tradition.

Why Krav Maga for Military
Victory Karate training curriculum focuses on Krav Maga — the military self-defense and fighting system developed for the Israel Defense Forces. It combines boxing, wrestling, aikido, judo, and karate with realistic fight training.
