From the reviews

I’ve been a student at KMF Schaumburg since about September. It has been such a blessing. I struggle with group fitness situations. I do not grasp things as quickly as others. This has caused me to quit and give up. That has not been the case here.

★★★★★ — Trish, Feb 2025

I completed my concealed carry training with Chris Dorman, and I found the class to be both excellent and informative. I highly recommend this course to anyone seeking additional knowledge and tactical training in this area. 10/10

★★★★★ — Matt, Sep 2024

I have been training with KMF since I moved to Chicago in 2019. Had to stop because I moved out of the city. I was so excited when I found out they opened the second location in Schaumburg because I can finally get back to it. The instructors are professional, experienced and knowledgeable.

Your first Krav Maga class at Krav Maga Force Schaumburg

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.
