From the reviews

Update: My husband, daughter, son, and I all have been attending the taekwondo family class at Success Martial Arts for the last 8 months. The choice to do taekwondo as a family is one of the best decisions we’ve made, especially learning at this studio. Our instructors are professional, knowledgeable, and FUN!

★★★★★ — Caitlyn, Apr 2023

For almost three years, our son has been training with ATA in Bonsall. Master Kramer knows how to teach discipline, keeps him motivated and holds him accountable for all areas in his life, not just limited to martial arts- a great mentor!

★★★★★ — Nancy, Mar 2022

ATA Success Martial Arts is definitely one of the best, most memorable, and respectful martial arts places. Master Kramer is a professional trainer and expert. He has helped us the whole family obtain physical, mental, and moral discipline.

★★★★★ — Howtosimple, Dec 2019

We just started bringing our 10 year old and 6 year old to ATA Success Martial Arts. We were reluctant to join but we are glad we gave it a try. My kids love coming to classes since day one, and it has been rewarding to see them learn long-life skills including self-defense.

New to Krav Maga? Start at Success Martial Arts

Success 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 Success 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.
