From the reviews

Joining this club has honestly been one of the best decisions I’ve made. It not only teaches discipline and useful martial arts skills but also provides a supportive environment that makes learning enjoyable.

★★★★★ — Radhika, Dec 2024

If you’re looking to put your child or yourself in karate, I highly recommend here! My son is autistic and Since I have signed my son up here I have noticed a change in my his confidence and behavior. He enjoys his time when he’s there even when he gets disciplined for not listening.

★★★★★ — Jessica, Apr 2026

I recommend bringing your child or yourself to the Indianapolis Martial Arts Club, because it is a great and safe place for you and your child to learn and to become better at your fighting skills. I put my daughter in a class almost a year ago and she loves it.

★★★★★ — Franchi, Apr 2025

I've tried a lot of martial arts classes since I was a kid and this is by far the best. The way the teachers make things make sense for different styles of learning is really intuitive.

New to Krav Maga? Start at Indianapolis Martial Arts Club

Indianapolis Martial Arts Club 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 Indianapolis Martial Arts Club

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.
