What Customers Say

As a new member to the krav community, Amit and the rest of the gym members welcomed me with open arms and taught me the skills needed with kindness and patience. There are different classes for all ages, skill/fitness levels, and schedules. Everyone there is very cognizant of others’ past physical/mental hurdles and will work with you to create a comfortable environment.

Hitomi Maeno

My Krav Maga journey started with Amit and other coaches over 10 years ago. We trained together for some years. I had an opportunity to see Amit along with some coaches grow from students to very seasoned instructors. For anyone who is interested in learning martial arts, I would highly recommend Krav Maga Cleveland.

With a couple months of commitment I went from zero ability to defend myself to feeling way more confident to escape trouble should it be pointed at me. Has also made me even less likely to be in trouble's way because I realize just how lethal even a fall can be in physical conflict.
