From the reviews
Been training for 10 years with the KMNY team and they are phenomenal. It’s an exceptional experience and I continue to learn something every time I'm there. What I said 6 years ago still holds true today and is a testament to the quality of the school, the instructors and the students who train there.
Such an incredible place! The teachers make every class fun and engaging, and everyone feels welcome no matter their skill level. The sense of community is something I truly miss whenever I’m away for work.
Erin is a patient, kind and highly skilled instructor who knows how to engage with my kids and keep them focused during each lesson. She makes learning Krav fun. Highly recommended 💜
I've always been interested in taking up self-defense training and or a martial art. Being a small female (4'11) , I wanted training where my height and weight would not be a great disadvantage.
New to Krav Maga? Start at Krav Maga New York
Krav Maga New York 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 New York
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.
