From the reviews
Mike is the real deal with a no nonsense approach to self defense. You want to earn a black belt from Mike you should be prepared to spend a few years at least to attain the black belt rank. He is awesome with children as well. I rate his skill level on all aspects of martial arts at the highest level.
5 STARS!!! My daughter has been going to Mr. Price’s class for some time now. I love seeing how much my daughter looks forward to his classes and love the dedication she has. She’s learned so much about self defense, being prepared and paying close attention.
I’ve been training with the adult fitness class for about a year now and it’s definitely the best exercise routine for myself. I’ve tried personal trainers and gyms in the past, however I’ve had the most results with this school.
Fantastic school! I attend the adult classes and my son also attends private lessons with Mr. Price. I have trained at several other schools in the area over the last 30 years and I believe that the style taught here is hands down the most useful. Mr.
New to Krav Maga? Start at Mike Price's Martial Arts & Fitness
Mike Price's Martial Arts & Fitness 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 Mike Price's Martial Arts & Fitness
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.
