Started by Ryan and Zanalee Davies in 2009 with a vision to use their extensive travel and training history to create a Self Defence, fitness and martial arts coaching service unlike any seen before in South Africa. It was through travel that Ryan discovered MuayThai, Krav Maga, Jiu Jitsu and A.C.T Armed Combat & Tactics fighting system.

Over the years they have studied, trained and worked continuously to perfect their martial arts and self defence system giving birth to PRIMAL Krav Maga & Armed Combat .

At PRIMAL we believe the most important factor in delivering world-class training is simply the quality of the coaches!

Now located in Randburg, Gauteng, PRIMAL Gym has transformed into PRIMAL Fitness / Combat Academy and grown into more than just a gym. We are a bespoke, personalised coaching and mentorship program commitment to Self Protection and fitness related training. Our training caters for people at all levels of fitness, in a small group or personal training, so no matter who walks through our doors we have the Self Defense solution for you.
