From the reviews

This is the third martial arts gym my son has gone to, and is by far the best. They have teen classes, which is great because if your child is a teen beginner, they are learning with kids their age and not little ones. Coach Zach is amazing, and such a great role model for my son.

We LOVE Atlas. If you're looking to get your kids or yourself into martial arts, Atlas Combat Sports is the place to do it. They are great for our entire family. They have a wonderfully balanced approach to teaching kids, and helping them learn discipline, focus, and respect in addition to the physical training.

★★★★★ — Scott, Mar 2023

Atlas is more than a gym teaching you self defense the coach’s become your family. They care about your goals and work with you to make them happen. I love how the whole family can participate in classes and coaches are amazing at teaching at all levels. You can tell from every lesson taught that coaching is a passion.

★★★★★ — Sara, Jan 2021

It's by no accident they have a 5 star, unbreakable streak. This place has so much heart. The coaches are the most genuine, kind, talented, and emotionally mature mentors any kid could ask for. My child will have long-lasting benefits from the environment here and the confidence and skills acquired. We love Atlas!! ❤️

New to Krav Maga? Start at Atlas Combat Sports

Atlas Combat Sports comes up as a beginner-friendly school, going by their listing and students’ reviews. If you've never thrown a punch or set foot in a self-defense class, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or athletic to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and instructors scale the intensity to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable schools build the fundamentals (stance, movement, and core self-defense techniques) over weeks, and controlled pressure-testing eases in gradually so every drill stays safe. Third, all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or Level 1 class time so your first session is alongside others who are also just starting out. Most schools are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.

Your first Krav Maga class at Atlas Combat Sports

Nervous about walking into a Krav Maga school for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good instructors expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling a few core techniques with a partner — controlled and at your own pace, not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: comfortable athletic clothes you can move in — there's no uniform or special gear you need to buy to get started. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — most schools have everything else you'll need for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call what to bring. Pressure-testing eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid — you won't be sparring hard on day one. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign in and meet the instructor. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

Krav Maga is a contact activity. Ease in, train at your own pace, listen to your instructors, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
