About Krav Maga of Orange County

Details About Our School

Krav Maga of Orange County, Founded in 1992

Over 20 years ago Darren Levine, Chief Instructor of Krav Maga Worldwide asked his senior students/instructors Mitch Markowitz and Mike Leifer to start a program in Orange County. They followed that direction and established Krav Maga of Orange County (KMOC). KMOC has been providing quality training in Southern California since 1992 and has taught thousands of students throughout Orange County. The KMOC instructor staff has over 150 years of combined teaching experience in Krav Maga and our program is the only one with 7 - Black Belt Level Instructors in the County. Our mission is to provide the highest level of training to our students by teaching the most current techniques for real life situations and field scenarios.

Your membership allows you to attend as many of the classes you'd like for the programs you've enrolled in. You can attend either of our locations and multiple classes per evening if your training/belt level allows.

Belt testing occurs periodically. Testing is not required but attending the belt testing workshops is highly recommended for all students as it is an excellent day of training.


Krav Levels

Belts or levels are not emphasized in the system. However, the real test is knowing the Krav Maga techniques well enough to perform them successfully on the street - when needed. In the classroom, there are 5 levels defined to help the instructors better organize the various techniques and to effectively teach them to all students.

Here at Krav Maga of Orange County we are certified to teach all 5 Levels:

Krav Maga Level 1: This level is designed for all new Krav Maga students and will cover Yellow Belt techniques. The goal of this level is to teach the basics of self-defense and fighting, including fighting stance and movement, various punches, kicks, elbows, and knees. The student will also learn techniques from both a standing position, as well as, from on the ground and be able to defend against chokes, headlocks and wrist grabs.

Krav Maga Level 2: In this intermediate level, students will learn new Orange Belt techniques, in addition to reviewing and improving their Krav Maga Level 1 skills. More advanced techniques such as defenses with simultaneous counterattacks, bear hugs, and ground threats will also be learned.

Krav Maga Level 3: In this intermediate level, students will learn Green Belt techniques that reinforce and enhance techniques learned in the previous levels. Additional training focus is given to develop proficient defenses against some of the more common attacks such as punch and kick combinations, hair grabs, and more threats from the ground or from behind.

Krav Maga Level 4: This level is for students interested in more advanced training, emphasizing Blue Belt techniques. The curriculum includes additional punches and kicks, more defenses against aggressive attacks, and defenses against common weapons.

Krav Maga Level 5: This level is for students interested in more advanced training, emphasizing Brown/Black Belt techniques. The curriculum includes additional punches and kicks, more defenses focused training on developing effective tactical defenses against aggressive sticks, knife, and gun attacks.
