| Here are a few testimonials from our KMFC Students: |
|
"Krav Maga has prepared me immeasurably to successfully defend myself in
violent encounters not only in every day life, but in potential combat
situations as well. As an active duty officer in the Air Force, Krav Maga
provides me vital training to protect myself and others no matter where I'm
sent in the world. Steve and the rest of the instructions are passionate about
what they do and provide a level of personal attention and training not found
in other facilities in Kansas City."
-- Paul B., Capt, USAF |
"I think that Krav Maga is the right fighting technique for anyone in the
military because it quickly provides a critical path for dealing with a harmful
or violent situation. There are no wasted efforts in Krav Maga, all of the
techniques are designed to aggressively maximize the natural movements of the
body while under stress. For this reason, Krav Maga has great utility for law
enforcement personnel who often find themselves out-numbered or suddenly
confronted by a larger opponent. Maybe the best thing about Krav Maga is that
it quickly develops skills and techniques that are easy to learn, easy to
remember and that have great utility and practical value. And...you get a
pretty great work out."
-- Major Al Bazzinotti, Military Police, U.S. Army |
”I have been training in Krav Maga since May of 2003. What first drew me to the
doctrine is it's simplicity. Simplicity and logic are the two standards by
which I gauge any defensive tactics doctrine. If it is not simple, it won't be
retained, if it is not logical, it won't work. Krav Maga is simple, and it is
logical in application. This is why I continue to train in the doctrine, and
why I work toward its incorporation in our training.”
-- Rick Staples, Instructor, Johnson County Regional Police Academy |
"With over 15 years of experience in several forms of martial arts and boxing I have not found anything that is as realistic and practical as Krav-Maga. The cardiovascular workout is very intense and the self defense and gun and knife defense techniques are very practical for use in a real life threatening situation."
-- Erik Carlsen, NREMT-Paramedic Tactical, Kansas City Missouri Mast |
"Since starting Krav Maga a month ago, I have lost 2 inches on both my waist and hips. I have to buy new pants for work now! I'd like to thank Steve, Jay, Roger, Eric and Erik...Krav Maga is making me smaller, stronger, more confident and more powerful physically."
--Wendy R. |
“Before training in Krav Maga, I was that overweight woman at the office who was out of breath after one flight of stairs. I was the friend who got picked to watch the kids rather than help paint, move, or haul hay, because I just wouldn’t be much help doing anything physical. I was the mom who had to say “mommy can’t” way too many times—Mommy can’t pick you up because her back hurts; Mommy can’t run and play with you because she can’t breathe; Mommy can’t do that today because she’s just too tired. Since training in Krav Maga, I’ve lost weight, I’m healthier, and I have skills to protect myself. Now I’m the one out there picking up hay bales and helping stack them in the barn. I’m the mom chasing her boys up and down the beach. Two weeks ago I raced the dog uphill through the pasture...just for fun!”
-- Susan M. |
“As a police officer, my training in Krav Maga has given me the ability to walk with comfort and confidence among those that would do me harm. Krav Maga's technique of training from a position of disadvantage allows me to keep a more relaxed posture, bringing calm to tense situations while still allowing me to defend myself and others.”
--Rusty Sullivan, Police Officer Belton Mo, Fire Captain Grandview Mo. SWAT- EMT Tactical, Grandview, Mo Police |
“Awesome, simply awesome! Whether you are looking for an incredible workout, SERIOUS self-defense tactics, or full throttle “fighting” skill, Krav Maga & Fitness Center is IT! Everyone on staff is fantastic. The student to instructor ratio is so good; it feels like you have your own personal “coach”! I highly recommend Krav Maga & Fitness Center KC to anyone! It certainly exceeded my highest expectations!”
--Chris B., Pharmaceutical Sales Representative |
Krav Maga is the best fitness program I've taken anywhere in K.C. Learning self defense tactics that are realistic in your everyday life has given me a great sense of empowerment when I'm out on my own. Their self defense and fitness classes accommodate every skill level of exercise I am able to do. It has helped increased my endurance in all physical areas of my life. The instructors are just as positive and energetic as the classes. A must do for anyone serious in their work out.
