From the reviews
This place changed my life. No joke. It has become the place I go every evening, to vent, to see friends and most importantly to train my ass off. Since I joined I've lost a ton of weight, learned how to fight and defend myself, I even have the opportunity to teach!
Starting taking Krav Maga classes a few months ago and so happy that I did! Joining the school is intense but Ali was very welcoming and all the people there are very supportive and willing to teach you if you are eager to learn. Some bruises here and there but my confidence is up, and that's what counts!
This gym is one of the best things that happened to me in my post-covid, work from home life. The workout is killer but fun, and the community is incredible. Alyssa is the best coach! If you want to get in shape, impress your friends and family, and meet some great people, this is the place.
All the trainers are great with a ton of knowledge. They strive to help each student learn and develop their skills. I would strongly recommend for anyone who wants to learn self defense or refine their skills. I feel more confident in my abilities after each time I step in the gym. It’s also a great workout.
New to Krav Maga? Start at Roshankish Krav Maga
Roshankish Krav Maga 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 Roshankish Krav Maga
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.
