Why train with us

Three reasons this is the best decision you'll make this year

World's Best Self-Defense

Krav Maga is the most effective, practical self-defense system in the world. It is the system adopted by law enforcement and elite military units for one simple reason: it works under real-world stress, against real threats.

A Workout With Benefits

Every class doubles as high-energy fitness. We call it the workout with benefits. You will burn calories, build strength, and leave drenched, all while learning skills that could one day save your life.

Safety Is Our #1 Priority

Krav Maga is one of the safest activities you can do. With world-class certified instructors and state-of-the-art training methods, we keep you progressing fast while keeping you protected every step of the way.

Real results

You probably have one of these in mind

Every one of these members walked in with the same hesitation you might have right now.

Too old to start?

I absolutely love this place! Starting a martial art at 37 was kind of intimidating, however, I am so happy I did. The instructors have been so nice and welcoming. Also, all the other students are very kind and I feel right at home.

Not in shape?

As a beginner I was intimidated by the process and as someone who's out of shape they reassured me I was going to be okay. Not only was it fun and not intimidating after my first class, a month later I feel my confidence growing and I'm feeling healthier everyday.

Never done anything like this?

I've never been a physical person, so I was scared to join a contact sport. Annie and the other trainers at the Denver location made me feel very welcome and safe. I'm enjoying the process quite a bit, and I love feeling stronger!

Worried about a hard sell?

First day first class. I really enjoyed it and cannot wait to continue going to classes. I felt no pressure to sign up and they gave me all the information I needed, so that I could make the right decision to continue training with them.

Who you'd actually be training with

Colorado's first Krav Maga school

Colorado's first Krav Maga school, since 1997

James Hiromasa has been licensed to teach Krav Maga since 1997, among the very first instructors in the United States. That's nearly thirty years of starting beginners from zero, not a franchise that opened last year.

Subject matter expert on Colorado POST's Defensive Tactics Committee

That's the state body that sets defensive tactics training standards for Colorado law enforcement, which means the standards those officers are held to are the material you'll be learning, minus the parts that only apply if you're wearing a badge.

Senior Instructor, Israel's Wingate Institute

The certification comes from where the system was built, not from a weekend course.

Contracted by first responder agencies to train their teams

When it has to work under real stress on real shifts, that's who calls, and every instructor on our floor is certified under the same standard.

Common questions

Good questions. Straight answers.

Do I need to be in shape first?

Not at all. The workout meets you where you are and scales to your level. Self-monitor, stop and rest, catch your breath if needed. Everyone does. The only requirement for your first class is that you show up.

Will I have to spar or get hit?

No. There is no sparring in the beginner level. Your first class is about learning the fundamentals in a safe, controlled setting, partners holding pads for each other, no live sparring and no pressure, just good coaching.

Do I need any gear?

Nope. Wear comfortable workout clothes and shoes, and bring a water bottle. We provide everything else for your first class. You can order optional affordable gear later if you'd like.

What if I've never done martial arts?

Perfect, most of our students started with zero experience. There will be other brand new students in your class. Our instructors begin with the basics and build from there.

What does the first class actually look like?

A warm-up (important!), then usually a few core striking techniques to complement the self-defense techniques being taught that day, and a genuine but friendly workout. You'll walk out having learned something practical on day one.

What does it cost after the free class?

Memberships start at $159 a month for adults, and pricing is the same at every location, it varies only by which plan you pick. We'll walk you through the options after your class, and you're welcome to leave without picking one.

Am I going to get a sales pitch?

No. We'll tell you what we saw in your first class, ask how you felt it went, and show you our options for continued training if you liked it. If you didn't, we'll congratulate you on finishing your first class, and that's the end of it.

How old does my child have to be?

Young Warriors starts at age 3 and runs through 12, and teens have their own program from 13 to 16. Classes are grouped by age so nobody's training with kids twice their size.

Do parents stay and watch?

Yes, there's seating on the side and you're welcome to stay for the whole class. Most parents do for the first few.

I'm over 50, or I have an old injury. Can I still train?

Yes, and plenty of our members are in exactly that position. Tell your instructor before class starts, because everything scales and working around an injury is a normal part of what we do.

When are your beginner classes?

Adult classes run at 12:15pm, 6pm and 7pm most weekdays, plus Saturday mornings. Youth classes start between 4pm and 5:30pm on weekdays, and the exact time depends on your child's age group. Times vary a little by location, and you'll see the exact schedule for your studio when you book.
