From the reviews
I have been training with Gus for over 4 years and it has been an incredible experience. My physical fitness and situational awareness has improved during my time here. Gus and his instructors are extremely knowledgeable and explain the subject very well during the training. Thanks for everything Gus!
I had the opportunity to train with Gus on two occasions. The first was a series of private lessons to attain a greater sense of safety as a woman working in complex security environments. During these sessions I acquired a solid foundation of techniques that I could instinctually draw upon if necessary.
Gus and his team’s (Joseph & Ed) depth of knowledge and caliber of teaching, taught with their friendly and focused approach is like taking a MasterClass, except you’re throwing punches. I have been training with CKM for about a year and a half and I absolutely love the results I have gotten.
I have grown so much over the past couple of years from what I’ve learned from studying krav here with Eric and Gus as well as the students. My confidence has grown. I know that I am in such a greater position to defend myself. Everyone puts you at ease here. It’s a comfortable environment and an encouraging one.
New to Krav Maga? Start at Krav Maga Essentials / Corporate Krav Maga
Krav Maga Essentials / Corporate 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 Krav Maga Essentials / Corporate 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.
