Reviews from our members
Great martial arts training. My two children love the younger age group sessions and I am really enjoying the adults class. I am learning some great 'real world' self defense skills and the kids seem to be getting a great foundation in the fighting arts.
Realistic training model, good teaching methods, I recommend very much!
I started training at United Krav Maga a few month ago. Initially I did 1:1 training to gain knowledge and confidence. It’s a great way to work out, get more confident, gain situational awareness and presence. Would highly recommend, even without any previous experience (like me). The training is always challenging and adjusted to my level. Thank you!
