“I don't think that students that do not know the routine should move to the next belt level just because they attended 10 classes.”
“Not just the martial arts but the self esteem, self defense, joy and leadership!”

From the reviews
Both of my children and myself have been taking classes at PMA for about two years. My husband also takes Krav Maga classes. Not only is the instruction fantastic, but they teach to each child, and this place is truly family to us. Our lives have been infinitely better since we started going to Polaris Martial Arts.
Master Mace and Mrs.DeVries are the most amazing people to know they are very compassionate about their business and their students i am so glad my daughter has came to Polaris Martial Arts because the amount of growth and knowledge that she has learned from her amazing Instructor is astonishing.
My 9 year old daughter started 8 weeks ago, it has been amazing. Not just the martial arts but the self esteem, self defense, joy and leadership! With every Reasonable cent! The management of covid precautions is exemplary as well.
My kids, along with myself, have been attending Polaris Martial Arts for a solid 2 months now. The instruction of the classes and quality of the lessons are 5 stars in itself. My absolute favorite thing, from experiencing and actually witnessing, is that when you are new, and attend a class, you tend to feel anxious.
Your first Krav Maga class at Polaris Martial Arts Crete
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.
