From the reviews
5 stars for Impact Martial Arts. My son was a very shy child, he came to class first day in tears. They took time cheering him up, had other kids talking to him and helped him get over his shyness. After 10 minutes he joined the class with everyone else and enjoyed every class after that. Master Doss and Ms.
My daughters have been attending Impact Martial Arts for only a few months, and they love it! We have seen a difference in their confidence when having to stand up for themselves. Also, they truly care about the kids here, and it's more than teaching them MMA.
My daughter loves this Taekwondo school! Coach create a positive and respectful environment where my daughter feels supported and excited to learn. It’s really helping her build discipline, strength, and self-confidence. Highly recommend!!!👍🏻
We’ve been with impact martial arts for almost a year. We have had a great experience and that’s why I took the time to write this. My daughter was struggling at school with concentration, focus, and following instructions.
New to Krav Maga? Start at Impact Martial Arts Austin TX
Impact Martial Arts Austin TX 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 Impact Martial Arts Austin TX
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.
