Great techniques and instructors. Not for the faint of heart, but that’s the point of having an aggressive workable defense technique. It’s a system used by the Israeli military - one of the best fighting organizations in the world.

I had been looking for a great fighting system like this for over 30 years, it’s aggressive, practical, and takes a little of everything from all areas of martial arts. You don’t have to be an athlete, you don’t have to be young - Krav Maga is designed for people of all ages and types. @Spartan Krav Maga instructors are patient, approachable, and knowledgeable without being arrogant and disrespectful - they teach for the pure love of Krav Maga and welcome questions and thoughts. It takes about 3-4 weeks to build up endurance and to understand how each fighting move builds upon another, but honestly this is such a good investment in yourself and you won’t be disappointed. I highly recommend SKM to learn how to defend and attack to protect yourself. 6 out of 5 stars!

Highly Recommend Sparta Krav Maga - One of the Best in Town For over 30 years I had been looking for a practical fighting system that was similar to classes I took years ago. I found it at Spartan Krav Maga and have been at it for over 2 years. SKM teaches a practical blended fighting system which has its roots in Israeli fighting techniques; Israeli soldiers are based in one of the most volatile regions in the world so you bet they know a thing or two about fighting and protection. The instructors are patient, top-notch, and are not intimidating, and while they encourage you to do your best they do not ridicule you nor call you out if you have reached your limit. We're all a team and we leave ego at the door. It's a good way to work out while learning practical fighting techniques. It's well worth your time and money, and I can't recommend SKM enough.

I trained to learn and experience real fighting and defense techniques from armed attackers for a novel I was writing. I very much enjoyed the training, and I learned a great deal from the experience, which has provided me with great fundamental fighting skills. I can better defend my family, others I love, and myself. As long as my body can hold out, I will continue to train to get better, smarter, faster and stronger.

Scott it has been great having you in class. Your progress has been great. Keep up the hard work, and keep writing great books.

I feel that the class structure enables me to learn something. Even if the material has already been covered in an earlier class, I get the chance to coach a newer partner or have the opportunity to workshop modifications with a more experienced partner. I never felt like I was out of my depth if I was unseasoned and any outside training I had wasn’t insulted. Instructors never made me feel that I was lesser for being a student and didn’t let their superior position go their heads.

I have trained here for two years and I cannot rate SKM highly enough! Every single instructor is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and supportive. The environment is welcoming and friendly and the classes are challenging. Several instructors actively work in law enforcement so the skills taught here have proved effective in real encounters. If you are considering learning practical self defense or just want a good fun workout, definitely give this place a try!
