“After each class, I feel more confident!”
From the reviews
If you are a woman or have a daughter, you NEED to contact this business. The self defense basics are truly a mind and body empowHER class. The initial classes provide invaluable tools and techniques to build upon.
I really enjoy taking Krav Maga classes. After each class, I feel more confident! It's very rewarding and empowering! Mayra, the lead instructor is very knowledgeable and is devoted to helping her students succeed. I highly recommend this studio!
A great school to train with passionate instructors. Mayra really cares about her students and treats everyone like family. Top notch training with a very clean and safe facility.
Fácil de entender y aprender, creo que es muy importante que como mujer saber defenderse y estar alerta. Gracias por ser buena Maestra
New to Krav Maga? Start at Krav Maga Mind Body
Krav Maga Mind Body 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 Krav Maga Mind Body
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.
