From the reviews
We’ve had such a great experience at Freedom Martial Arts. He is amazing with the kids incredibly patient and encouraging, but also direct and structured in a way that helps the kids stay focused and learn discipline. They have a really great balance of being kind while still setting clear expectations.
Highly recommend! Rich is so awesome with the kids that we drive from mckinney in order to do his classes. My kids couldn't find another place they enjoyed and learned as much as they do at Freedom.
My child has been at FreedomMA for a while now, they love going every week! Rich is so great with all the kids and teaches them so much more than just the MA! We also joined the adult class and had a lot of fun practicing the moves at home with eachother!!
We enrolled my special needs son not knowing what to expect. The coach worked so well with him and was so patient while also firm which is what my son needed. 10/10 recommend Freedom Martial Arts!
New to Krav Maga? Start at Freedom Martial Arts Fitness and More
Freedom Martial Arts Fitness and More comes up as a beginner-friendly school — noted on their own site. 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 Freedom Martial Arts Fitness and More
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.
