From the reviews
I was invited to My nephews birthday party at Elite Karate! Yes !! A birthday party for a 6 yr old!! !! This was the best idea!! I truly enjoyed being there and watching my nephews, his cousins and his friends be a part of his big day and enjoy it! Elite Karate has a Birthday party package for all ages! It's for 1.
One of the few places around where the owner is a real champion. Go to the CKM class and pay extra for private lessons with the owner. He taught me an unreal amount of info over 3 yrs. that actually work. Don't get fooled by the Krav classes that are really zumba classes. There are many.
I like the way the class was taught. Mr. T went one on one with the students, was firm and direct
We’ve been bringing our daughter here for over a year now, and I can’t say enough good things about the instructors. It isn’t just the quality of the karate instruction — it’s the way Rich and every teacher truly sees each child as an individual.
Your first Krav Maga class at Elite Karate & Krav Maga
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.
