Why I Teach Self-Defense

I believe everyone should know how to keep themselves safe. For me, self-defense is not just about fighting off someone - it’s about feeling confident wherever you go. If you can’t be safe, you should be ready to protect yourself. I want you to be your own bodyguard.

What My Training Looks Like

My system mixes several styles together so you get real-life self-defense skills, not just fancy moves. I blend Krav Maga (Israeli style, very practical), street-style kickboxing (not for a ring, but for actual stand-up fights), Japanese Jujutsu (close contact, throws, locks), and Kali (for weapon defense, especially sticks and knives). We don’t do sport rules - the street has no referee.

Beyond Physical Fighting

Honestly, the best defense is not fighting at all. I’ll teach you how to spot trouble early, talk your way out, set boundaries, and just get out when you need to. Personal safety awareness is always our first step.

For Anyone, Really

Doesn’t matter your age, size, or fitness level. If you want to learn, I’ll make it work for you. I create step-by-step plans that fit what you can do.

How We Train

We use lots of pad work, weapons drills, and stress-based training under pressure so your body really learns what to do. Simulations and role-play make it real - not just theory.

Special Program for Women

My S.H.E. classes are just for women. It’s all about simple, handy, effective skills in a supportive space.

Where We Meet

Mostly at my Bandra dojo, but Sunday mornings we hit Powai Forest Park for some outdoor fun and forest bathing.

My Story

Hey, Sensei H here, or just call me Hemaal if you like. Fighting Fit is more than a gym. It's about facing your own battles, not just punching bags. On my 53rd, I rode 1200 km with my students, fell off the bike, busted my knee, but had zero regrets. Been learning and teaching martial arts for 28 years, still believe anyone can get fighting fit – young, old, doesn’t matter. We’re all students, all warriors.

My Work

Personalized martial arts and fitness training - We mix kickboxing, MMA, Kali stick fighting, Krav Maga, Japanese Jiujitsu, Silambam, and Mudgar for a unique approach.

Self defence for all ages and abilities - Doesn’t matter if you’re 18 or 80, I’ll help you build a step-by-step plan that fits your strength and needs.

Outdoor martial arts classes - Sometimes we train in nature, like Powai Forest Park, for a fresh mind and stronger body.

Real world street defence focus - We teach what works outside the dojo. No sports fluff, just practical skills for unpredictable situations.

Blending traditional and non traditional styles - We break the rules, mix arts, and adapt so you’re ready for anything. One system doesn’t fit all.
