Kelevra Krav Maga, a new martial-arts school, has opened in the Springs building at 60 Weibel Ave. Owners Marc Delnicki and Mark Messare offer Krav Maga, which teaches self-defense, and KFX, which are fitness classes.

Krav maga is the official fighting style of the Israeli Army, but United States Armed Forces members are enjoying it, too. Delnicki and Messare, who served in the U.S. Army and Air National Guard, respectively, draw on decades of martial-arts experience to teach Kelevra Krav Maga’s students how to keep themselves and their loved ones safe. Using modern, practical fighting techniques, their krav maga classes impart self-defense skills while also providing an intense full-body workout. Delnicki and Messare also lead kids' martial-arts classes, and teach KFX fitness classes that use scientific research and anatomy knowledge to design workouts,
