From the reviews
My son has been coming here for almost 3 yrs and has had a wonderful experience. The staff is friendly and informative, explaining the process and financial costs thoroughly (no pressure or up-selling). The instructors (Mr David & Mr A) are amazing... their style of teaching is patient, motivating and encouraging.
So excited and happy we found PMA. I think it was just what my son needed. During the pre-trial. He was a little hesitant and shy, by the end of it he started opening up and got on the floor with the other kids. We wanted and expected him to learn self-defense, but what WE GOT WAS SO MUCH MORE!
My eldest has been going to PMA since he was 4.5, now he is 7.5. He loved it from the start. I love how much discipline it has tonight him as well as confidence. We have signed him up for soccer, chess, basketball and more but PMA was the only one he consistently wanted to go too!
We love our PMA family. Mr Miguel is amazing with the kids and teaches them more than just technique. They give life lessons.
New to Krav Maga? Start at Premier Martial Arts University Park
Premier Martial Arts University Park comes up as a beginner-friendly school, going by their listing and students’ reviews. 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 University Park
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.
