From the reviews

Main Street Martial Arts has been an absolute godsend to our family over the past three years. When my son first started, he was struggling in school with hyperactivity, poor impulse control, and difficulty focusing. The transformation we've witnessed has been remarkable.

★★★★★ — Cordelia, Sep 2025

This is a great discipline for all ages! My 13 year old son has been training at Main Street Martial Arts for a little over a year now and he loves it! After years of competitive boys gymnastics we decided it was time to try something new.

★★★★★ — Elsa, Feb 2021

Cool place to take your family to learn boxing. Coach is very attuned to each student and how they are practicing the techniques he teaches. He's personable, friendly, and maintains a high level of care with his students, instructing them what happens if the technique is performed incorrectly.

★★★★★ — Princess, Mar 2023

This is a wonderful place for people of all ages. They offer afterschool, spring break and summer martial arts classes. As well as adult classes for self defense. Lance and his crew are wonderful teachers. No matter what experience level you are, they will take great care of you and make you feel welcome!

New to Krav Maga? Start at Main Street Martial Arts

Main Street Martial Arts 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 Main Street Martial Arts

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.
