Cincinnati Krav Maga

My wife and I enjoyed our intro lesson enough to continue classes. Ron was a great and engaging instructor, and we felt really welcome at the gym. Can’t wait to go back.

Took my first krav maga class today and I loved my experience! They kept me moving and I learned techniques that will hopefully stay with me when I possibly get attacked in the future. I'm definitely signing my daughter up cause everyone should know some kind of defense with their hands

This is a wonderful martial arts school. The instructors are friendly and knowledgeable and the students even the higher ranks are supportive and willing to help and guide you. Not a lot of big egos here, just nice people. The facility itself is great, large and clean with many dressing rooms and showers. Krav Maga itself is a fantastic martial art, rooted in self-defense and keeping things real, effective and simple. Anyone can start and quickly learn the basic moves regardless of athletic ability or lack of : The owner is a black belt and travels to Israel every year to train. He is a terrific person, super-friendly and makes everything fun. The classes are also quite a workout as you warm up for that weeks training session. Just a great school - I have learned much in just a few months and feel more confident if I ever need to defend myself. I truly look forward to going and continuing to learn. My highest recommendation!

The Cincinnati Krav Maga school has really been one of my better decisions. I was looking for something to challenge myself & I found it here. The instructors are knowledgeable and I appreciate how they break down techniques as it relates to a potential real life situation. A lot of time, well spent, is on the fundamentals - kicking, striking, blocking and maneuvering. This approach is effective in coaching the student to have a good defense in any situation. Instructors are courteous and treat all with respect. The higher rank students are also quite helpful and are usually willing when extra practice is needed. Classes last an hour. With about 20 min. spent on conditioning. The remainder is focused on techniques rotated weekly. I would encourage you not "think about it" - take that shot and try a class and get a real sense for practical self defense.

Wonderful opportunity to learn practical self-defense skills and strategies, push your physical fitness to the next level, and enjoy an environment with a great family feel. And if that wasn’t enough, great instructors with an infectious positive attitude. I’ve liked it so much that I got my daughter to join.

Krav Maga is one of the best decisions I’ve made for my life. It’s been both a major confidence boost, and a source of security while walking around on UC’s campus for my night classes. I was nervous going in the first time, but it’s such a diverse and friendly group of people that it makes training there so enjoyable. Lots to learn, friends to be had, and plenty of smiles.

I highly, highly recommend Cincinnati Krav Maga to anyone who is thinking about giving it a shot! Everyone here, instructors and fellow students, have been exceedingly kind and helpful. I really feel that no matter your fitness or skill level going into the first class, you'll be able to make it work for you.

Excellent program for kids and adults. Get in shape and learn some self-defense at the same time. My son's TKD program had too much idle time and he wasn't getting his heart rate above "rest" so we tried this and we both are enjoying it. I was a bit nervous about having him join the adult group, but this group keeps things serious, while also very casual and fun, it feels like a family.

I love this community, people who are coming and people who runs this place. Everybody very nice and helps you do your best on the mat. I and my husband coming together in these defense classes. It is nice spend time together, exercise, and learn protect yourself if it is needed. Some times these classes are working as therapy to us :D

A great affordable place to work out and learn self defense. Instructors are awesome, very welcoming and helpful.
