From the reviews

My son and I have been attending Premier Martial Arts , going on 4 1/2 yrs. The professionalism that we have received throughout the years has been outstanding. All of the instructors that we have had the pleasure of training with have really shown a great sense of knowledge of the art!

★★★★★ — Omar, Mar 2018

Our kiddo has been attending Premier Martial Arts classes for nearly a year. After trying swim and soccer, we were striking out with something that kept him engaged and motivated. The Premier staff have provided a fun, supportive, and encouraging environment, even for the adults!

★★★★★ — Colorado, Feb 2025

This has been the best decision we have made for our son. He has only been going here for a couple of months and he already has more confidence and self discipline. He loves going to every class. He tried team sports and they just weren’t for him.

★★★★★ — Nicole, Mar 2019

We have loved Premier Martial Arts, it’s excellent for younger kids just starting and learning about what martial arts is all about. Our son is five and really enjoys it, he loves attending the classes and looks forward to it every week. Instructors are friendly and professional, very clean and safe environment.

New to Krav Maga? Start at Premier Martial Arts

Premier 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 Premier 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.
