I have been training Krav Maga for about four months now, and it has been a blast! The teachers are friendly and really work to help you become your best. The curriculum is thorough, well thought out and easy to learn. The number one rule of Krav is don't get hurt during training; and the instructors here do a good job of informing students how to hold the pads properly and practice the techniques in a safe way. Not only do they teach you how to physically fight back during a violent encounter, but also the mindset needed to survive or even avoid the encounter in the first place. The classes are fun and there is a great sense of community here. I recommend Krav Maga Portland to anyone who wants to be safer on the streets, get into shape, and have a lot of fun doing it.

Where to even begin? Krav Maga has proven to be one of the most effective and easiest to learn forms of self defense ever devised. Used by the Israeli Defense Force and numerous law enforcement agencies worldwide, it constantly undergoes review from its highest ranks to ensure the system stays relevant to the environments in which it's practiced. That said, I've been a student for a couple of years and have had an amazing experience from day 1. Mark Blake co-owns the school and teaches along with an amazing team of instructors. When I first started taking classes I was 48 pounds overweight and needed a fitness regimen that would keep me engaged and interested. My first class was *so* physically challenging I actually had to pick myself up by the bootstraps to go back. But within a month I'd already dropped 10 pounds and was able to make it through a rigorous hour of class without stopping. The classes are so fun that most of the time I'm barely aware I'm "working out" so I never get bored. This is a highly effective form of self defense and fitness and I would recommend it for men and women just about any age. The first class is free too!

Krav Maga Portland is absolutely amazing! I first discovered Krav in 2010 and have been hooked ever since. I joined with the goal to lose weight and to get into better shape in general. Not only has that happened, I've also learned a great deal about self defense and feel much more confident in my ability to defend myself and my loved ones. I cannot recommend Krav Maga Portland enough, come check it out!

I've been taking Krav Maga classes for over 3 years at KMSD&F. I love the instructors and the information they provide. Each instructor has a different personality and each class a different sort of energy. All of them great. I highly recommend Krav Maga Portland (KMSD&F) to anyone who is looking for a great workout and an outstanding awakening to self defense.

Krav Maga Portland is the best thing i have done for myself as far as self defense and getting the knowledge to protect my family. They teach you so much, easy to retain and stick with you until you succeed and beyond. I would not have made it to advance levels if the instructors would not have been so helpful with correcting me and pushing me to excel! plus as a bonus they have klckboxing that infuses all striking and mad cardio to your workout.
