From the reviews
I’ve been a student with Synergy before they moved to the new location. I roughly have 4 active years since 2016. I can say for sure that Synergy is the right choice for beginners and even intermediate students moving from class to class. Synergy has classes suitable for any experience level.
I'm taking the Sunday 8:30 am Tai Chi and the Thursday 7:30 pm Counterstrike Krav Maga classes. Instructors are engaging and personable, making it easy to ask questions. As a beginner I definitely feel challenged and encouraged to work outside my typical comfort zone to achieve better results.
I took my boys to learn Krav Maga and ended up taking the class myself, we liked it so much that the following week I brought my girlfriend and her son. We all absolutely LOVE the class & we are learning to defend ourselves in very difficult situations. Everyone at every age should be taking this class.
My daughter has been a student here for the last several years. I feel that it has been a great experience for her as she develops her martial arts and grows in confidence. The classes are well-structured and it caters to multiple skill levels.
New to Krav Maga? Start at Synergy Martial Arts
Synergy 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 Synergy 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.
