5 star Krav Maga review“Joining up with CO Krav Maga has been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my health, my self-confidence, and my all-around life. If you’re looking for something different, a killer workout, and to learn to take care of yourself and those you care about, you’d be hard pressed to find a better place to check out than COKM” (Real review from a real student, read more public reviews HERE)

WHY KRAV MAGA?

Because self-defense is what we do. Period.

We focus only on techniques and training methods that work. Not theoretically, but proven in real life. Just ask our clients. Krav Maga is different. It’s designed to be easy to learn, quick to master, and have an incredibly long retention term when compared to other martial arts that rely on athleticism and constant re-training for proficiency. That’s because Krav Maga is based on the bodies natural instinctive reactions to danger, threat, or pain.  You’ve been training in something similar to Krav Maga since you were born!

WHAT EXACTLY IS KRAV MAGA?

Straight to the point self-defense for real life.

Krav Maga (Hebrew – translates to “Contact Combat” in english) is a self-defense system designed to use the body’s natural instinctive reactions to threat and pain, modifying it only slightly if at all, to build an effective defense against that threat. Becuase of this, our defenses will fly out of you much faster in a real emergency, it’s easier to learn, and will stay with you longer as part of your ‘instinct’. Not only are the techniques easier to learn, but our unique training methods safely add “stress innoculation” into the mix to ensure you can keep a level head and defend yourself and others intelligently while remaining relatively calm under fire. Litterally.

I starting coming here two years ago and I have loved the experience. I am a childhood trauma survivor and I have struggled with severe anxiety, so when I first came to this class I was extremely anxious, but the way Nate is in class helped me to feel so comfortable. He creates an atmosphere that shows he cares a lot about his students and has a genuine kindness to him that put me at ease. I think this also creates a great example for the people attending class as well because they have all been supportive. Now all my anxiety is gone and I do believe that coming to this place has helped work through a lot of my anxiety issues. I am very grateful to have joined this place and now my son and my brother are coming too. I want to thank Nate too on how he treats my brother when he comes. I really feel that Nate is a big part of why he continues to come because a lot of the time my brother will give up but he hasn’t. This experience has been amazing for me in my growth. Thank you to Nate, James and all the people that help run this school, you are all amazing.read more

Great work out and practical instruction delivered with a sense of humor. I recommend this place for anyone interested in getting started in protecting yourself on the street. I also deeply appreciate that the instructor worked with me and let me come back after an extended absence due to a trampoline accident that left me needing surgery. He told me to come back when I was healed and ready to train and he would bank my time.; he was true to his word. I appreciate that level of integrity and care for the people training.read more

My son has been going here for years. He's only 9! However, the level of discipline and respect he shows others is unlike most children. He not only learns the benefits of self defense, he also learns self respect, self restraint, follow through on commitments, ability to follow instructions, empathy, active listening and SO MUCH MORE! In today's society and how crazy the world gets, I love the idea he can protect himself and others regardless of where he goes. The instructor is always wonderful working with children as well. The adult side of Krav Maga at this location is always kickin! The combination moves are put together so smooth it makes it fun. I haven't tried some of the other fitness programs they offer but there are so many options for all ages. Love this place!read more

This is a great place to train if you're looking for self defense or fitness or both. My friend trains, my nieces and nephew all do as well. There are no complaints from any of us. This is a badass company. There's a bunch of different classes you can take and its all available on the one membership. No membership tiers. Beyond the classes they also run a bunch of different seminars for all types of things: active shooters, multiple attackers, weapon scenarios.

I first started because I've always had an interest in martial arts but I never really signed up for classes and in other forms like karate you usually have to start at a young age. But Krav Maga welcomes you regardless of age and experience. I've been going here almost three months now and I love it! Not only have I got stronger and gotten more endurance, I also have more self esteem and more upbeat! The instructors are all amazing and teach each student at their own pace and adjustments can be made to suit your needs. Nate, James and Warren are great and make sure to explain things and remind you of the correct form, but they are also based on principles, not technique so the things that you learn you can apply to real life! I definitely recommend coming here for a class because you'll absolutely end up loving it and signing up for more classes afterwards!read more

I started at Colorado Krav Maga to get into better shape and to try something outside of my comfort zone. Now nine months later I am feeling better than I have in a long time. I feel stronger, healthier, and am beginning to do a lot more activities that I once thought I was unable to do. I have also reduced my stress levels immensely and gained confidence in my every day life, not to mention the fact that I feel if I found myself in a bad situation I could now make it home safe due to the self defense training. The family atmosphere here is what really keeps me motivated though. Everyone is rooting for everyone and I don't think I could find a better group of instructors. Well worth the time and effort.read more

I didn't think this was for me at first, but it's one of the best things I've ever gotten involved in. I never thought I would really need self defense because of my "that'll never happen to me" attitude. I was horribly wrong, a couple years ago I was in an abusive relationship; it took a lot for me to leave him, but it took me even more to get up the courage to even consider Krav Maga. For a year after I left him I still lived in fear that he would come after me, and now if he does, he'll be getting the shock of his life, a woman who fights back.I've been a student a few months now but even after the first few classes, where I was still getting used to the full contact aspect, I could feel a shift in my mentality, fear that I didn't know I had began to fade away, I felt so much more confident to stick up for myself in basic ways. It has truly been a life changer for me in ways no other fitness class can be.read more

I moved to Colorado at the beginning of 2017. Being the farthest away from my hometown that I'd ever been, I decided my first move should be to find a community of welcoming people so that I could make some friends. I didn't have to look far to find Colorado Krav Maga.When I first started, I was horribly uncoordinated, couldn't throw a punch to save my life, and was out of shape. On Day One, I received an enthusiastic welcome from the program director and other students. The instructors were incredibly knowledgeable and encouraging, but still pushed me to challenge myself and stretch my limits. After the first class I was hooked, and couldn't wait to commit to a membership and continue training.That was a year and a half ago. Today, I still experience the excitement that I felt at the end of that first class. I've also found myself in the best shape I've been in since high school and I've gained confidence that I've never had before. Being a student at COKM has been life changing for me, and I think so many people would feel the same way after trying just one class.You'll come looking for basic skills to protect yourself, but you'll leave with a new lifestyle, family, and home.read more

I go to CO Krav Maga not only to learn to protect myself, but also because of the staff. You might think they would be tough, cold, hardened fighters. Truth is they are caring, warm, hardened fighters. They truly care about their trainees. They are there to help you defend your life in a terrible situation. Do you know what you would do if someone pulled a gun on you? Probably not, but the staff at CO Krav does. And they’d be happy to show you.read more

I got sucked into Krav by my friend and coworker. I happen to enjoy group-oriented fitness that involves learning some kind of skill, and she was constantly talking about Krav like it was the best thing ever. (Spoiler alert: she was right). My friend accompanied me to my first class on the last Wednesday in January, 2018, after work. I was DRAINED and trying to talk myself (and her) out of it. Thank goodness she didn't let me. 🙂 Walking in the door, you're shown a few basics and then you are empowered by the instructor and your classmates to jump right in there with everyone else. Doesn't matter how much or how little you know -- Krav is based on the body's instinctive responses and I truly believe that anyone, no matter their prior training or experience, can get something useful out of class from day one. I walked out of that first class having cleared out all the negativity and can't-help-its and with a ton of energy, feeling like I could conquer the world. I couldn't sign up fast enough to be a member! Because of Krav, I've developed strength and endurance. My energy has skyrocketed, so I've gotten into other things, like yoga and boxing drills, as well as interval training. I love that the Krav mentality is all about being prepared, not just for a fight, but for whatever life throws at me. Get in here and try a class with us -- you won't be sorry!!read more

I started my journey with Colorado Krav Maga with a background in traditional martial arts. It was a quite a bit different focusing more on the effect of techniques and principles rather than analyzing the minutiae of each particular motion. What a relief!! I now know that I’m learning self-defense skills that are applicable in real-life situations. I have been pushed hard and I’m finding that my body is a lot stronger than I’ve ever given it credit for. And the best part, I’m meeting a lot of amazing people along the way!read more

Training here for over 2 years has been amazing. I never thought I'd be into martial arts but took it up at age 48 and am now in the best shape of my life. I am confident that I would be able to defend myself and my family in a myriad of horrible situations, and more importantly, read body language and subtle cues that can prevent a bad situation altogether.read more

This is the only workout that I've found consistently engaging, I learn something new every time I go and I'm always improving my fitness.

Two years ago I was jumped by 5 guys. I ended up robbed with a broken nose and dislocated jaw. The experience shook me as a person, and i became aware that the world can be rough, dirty and ugly. I have struggled with anxiety and paranoia until I started training here. The self confidence gained is truly invaluable. Krav maga is NOT your grandpas self defense. It is, simply, the most effective method of delivering violence for the purpose of ending a bad situation.The trainers here are positive, upbeat, and more energetic than makes sense. Not only do you get a great workout and learn priceless self defense, they leave you with a great attitude and a sense of community. For those with nagging sports injuries, i have also gained about 25% range of motion in a badly injured ankle joint. The low impact movement is extremely beneficial.I HIGHLY recommend this to any person, regardless of age gender size or mindset.People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf - George Orwellread more

I have been coming to classes for some time now and this year I completed and passed my orange belt test. That is something I would never have thought possible for myself. The instructors are great motivators and push you far beyond the limits you think you have. I am so grateful for all of them and the time they put in to their jobs!read more

I love the CO Krav Maga Training Center in Broomfield. The instruction is terrific. They focus on real life aspects of self-defense including defending yourself against a wide array of attacks and situational awareness. Training is at your own pace. As someone recovering from surgery, I can attest to the fact that instructors will help modify moves based on ability and mobility. And, instructors genuinely care about the students in class (or fake it really convincingly). Classes are offered at times that are convenient. I will continued to take classes at COKM for the foreseeable future, and highly recommend it to anyone.read more

Shouldn’t you?


Great instructors, excellent self defense training that includes high intensity workouts and provides the opportunity to learn tactical and real ways to handle any situation. So glad I joined!

We have been attending classes for a month now on a regular basis. As complete beginners, we have been made to feel right at home from day one with friendly instructors and the other participants. I leave every class with new knowledge, better skills, and dripped wet with sweat…we find the classes that fit our schedule and just show up. There are plenty of classes to choose from. I would recommend Colorado Krav Maga to anyone.

A place where the instructors care about your safety and the safety of those around you. You can learn how to quickly and effectively take care of yourself and those you love. Plus it’s an amazing workout and you meet a lot of really nice people

One of Colorado Krav Maga’s motto’s is ‘fear less.’ That accurately describes how I feel after a year of consistent training with them. Learning self-defense is one of the most successful steps I have taken towards knowing what I am capable of both mentally and physically. Colorado Krav Maga’s classes have instilled me with self-confidence, strength, knowledge, effective self-defense techniques, and the refusal to be a victim.

Frequently Asked Questions

Krav Maga is Hebrew for ‘Close Combat’.  It’s the official self-defense system for the Israeli Military and many Law Enforcement agencies across the USA and the world.  But don’t let that intimidate you.  Krav Maga is used by real people just like you EVERY DAY.  Hollywood actors and actresses learn Krav Maga to look sharp on the big screen and stay in shape, and most likely so does your neighbor.

  • Should I get into shape before trying Krav Maga?   There’s no need for that.  Krav Maga is an intense, high energy, and FUN workout and every class moves you forward towards your goals.  But ALL our classes are all self paced and our Instructors are Masters at helping everyone modify and regulate.  Stop and rest when you need to, get some water, observe…it’s all perfectly acceptable and a regular practice at Colorado Krav Maga.

  • How long should I train in Krav Maga?  As with anything, the more you practice the better you’ll be.  But Krav Maga is built on your bodies natural instincts and reflexes, so half the work is already done!  Everyone learns at their own pace, but we’ve found that most people train in the Basic level class for about 3 months before moving on to more advanced material.
