From the reviews

I am Hagen Harris, Dana Harris's daughter. I have been taking this class for about a year and a half and I really love it. You learn a lot of new things, and you get stronger as well as learning how to defend yourself. I have also met quite a few new people, and in class we are a very tight-knit community.

★★★★★ — Dana, Oct 2018

I have been attending Phx Krav Fit (Phoenix Krav Maga) for almost 3 years now. I have gained self-defense skills that will prepare me for the unexpected especially in my field (Realtor) as it is so important to be prepared for the unthinkable.

★★★★★ — Jessica, Oct 2018

Matt and Stephanie do a great job of building community and making everyone feel welcome! I decided to try a class to challenge myself. I’ve never done sports or martial arts and as a 40 year old woman I felt intimidated at the idea of Krav. From the first class all my fears went away.

★★★★★ — A., Apr 2025

Great instructors staff is wonderful. Training with all ages and everyone is welcoming. You learn real situations and how to do some self-defense. Top notch experience instructors that really care. I highly recommend that if you want to learn self-defense and meet new people while getting some workout in.

★★★★★ — James, Dec 2022

Your first Krav Maga class at Phoenix Krav Maga and Fitness | PhxKravFit

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.
