From the reviews
I train here 3 to 4 times a week. The curriculum is designed to make you tougher, more confident, and defense capable. Chris knows how to adjust the level of sparring and grappling to your current stage of progress . It is a good balance of fighting, grappling, and weapons defense training.
Chris and his group are the best in the business. Very welcoming and knowledgeable. I started at King Krav Maga 10 months ago and Im addicted, I just wish my work schedule would allow me to go more frequently. Highly recommend for any skill level. Chris will get you to whatever level your time and effort allows.
Been training here for six months now and absolutely loving it. I've seen a significant increase in my strength and endurance, not to mention practical self-defense skills.
This place is AWESOME! Sensei Chris and his partner are great with kids! There are great classes for both men and women looking to get fit, learn self-defense, or go hard on martial arts. Highly recommend!
New to Krav Maga? Start at King Krav Maga
King Krav Maga 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 King 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.
