Although I hate working out, I love working out with Tony ! He was an answered prayer. I needed someone on my side of town that I could learn Krav Maga from and I was ecstatic when I found him, especially since he was previously employed in law enforcement and that is my chosen profession. I love that I get to work out with Tony in order to lose weight/tone but that I also get to learn Krav Maga from someone certified. I love his one-on-one teaching and he answers all my ridiculous questions. He is firm and makes me push harder but is never disrespectful. He is the ultimate professional but is also laid back and fun to work with. He keeps our workouts exciting and I never get bored. My endurance has greatly improved and I am definitely more toned. Anyone who tries to attack me may want to pray first because I have some skills now ! Also, I love that I always have the most energy when I'm leaving a session with Tony. What I love the most is that he doesn't push HIS way on you and speaks to you about options that work best for YOU. Lastly, he teaches me about overall health, not just working out. I am learning how important sleeping and eating is in achieving optimal results and meeting fitness goals. I know this review is long but I had to say how much my sessions are SO worth the money!

Fantastic Krav Maga instructor and here's why: Firstly, Tony Brown not only has formal training and certification in Krav Maga, but he also comes from a lengthy career in law enforcement. He brings first-hand experience not only in self defense, but also with situational awareness and de-escalation. Secondly, he leads a lifestyle of fitness and is also a 'very fit' personal trainer, and therefore knows how to build students' strength, stamina, and overall fitness. And lastly, Tony is a very good communicator who is patient with students, explains things clearly, and delivers criticism in constructive way. It's rare to find people with both experience and ability who are also great teachers and motivators, but Tony is just that!

Since my start at Victory Fitness and Self Defense I have come a long ways towards feeling confident that I can take care of myself and my family. When I first started to look into self defense I found that there are a myriad of options and types of training out there. Fortunately for me after researching all the different styles out there and talking to friends who took various forms of martial arts or defense, I settled on trying to find a place that taught Krav. It may well have been one of the smartest things I've done. I've always considered myself fairly aware and capable, but as with any training I'm always amazed at how much I don't know. Day one I came in and sat down with Tony and Will and they spent time to get to know me and why I had chosen Krav and what my expectations are. Quickly I found myself working through the basics of awareness, footwork, and dozens of other fundamentals with my instructor Will. Whenever I didn't quite grasp something or needed work on a certain area we worked on those things until I was ready to move on. Now I find myself more than halfway through the program with a great deal more confidence and knowledge than I could have really anticipated when I started. I can't begin to describe how great Victory is...and if you ever find yourself looking for somewhere to learn how to take care of yourself, this is the place to go.

I have been involved in and have studied self defense most of my life. This Krav class is, without a doubt, the best class of this type that I have ever taken. Tony and Will do a great job of creating an environment where you can exercise for cardio and body toning and at the same time, you are learning techniques which can be used to defend yourself and your family. Since starting the Krav class, I have seen a vast improvement in my blood pressure readings and my energy levels. Now that I am a senior citizen, those are important factors that allow me to lead a healthy and active lifestyle. These guys push you to be better and work harder, but are considerate of your own personal physical limitations. I would highly recommend this class to either men or women who are interested in staying fit and having the confidence to either prevent a personal assault or if that is not possible, to defend yourself with proven and practical tactics designed to end the confrontation quickly and as safely as possible for you and your loved ones. You owe it to yourself and your family to give this class a try.

I enjoy the classes I take with Tony; It feels great to be empowered to take care of myself with the use of my body for self defense. My daughter and sister also go to Tony for self defense training. He is patient and very informative. He taught us ways we never even thought of to defend ourselves. I highly recommend Tony Brown to both women and men for self defense! Sharon
