    I started taking the Krav Maga classes because I could take a class at the same time my 10-year-old…read moreson was taking the kid's Krav class. It allowed me to get an extra hour of a workout in during the week and now I'm hooked! Krav is a real world self-defense that makes me feel strong and prepares me for real life situations. ASD also offers many other classes and so many talented instructors! Coach Shayne has been a big influence on myself and my husband. He continues to help us learn proper fighting techniques. Andrea is an awesome coach who continues to amaze us! Amit, Troy, Chris, Sergey, Marziya, and Jason have all taught me so much in Krav. Ilya's Hyrox and Fighter Flow classes are fun and a great workout! He also has a cook book that explains easy and healthy recipes! Manny's Boot Camp/kickboxing classes are always intense and will leave you sore. James' DEKA class was creative, hard and definitely worth a try! My son has enjoyed the Kids Krav classes....thank you James, Andrea, Anh and Marziya for teaching the big group of kids! I love watching him come home and practice and share what he learned. We often compare what we are all doing in class during the week. I can't forget Neal, the owner! And Carrie at the front desk! They always make us feel welcome and at home! I joined the Locked In For Summer Challenge that they organized at ASD. It has helped me stay focused on my nutrition and fitness goals. And has helped me meet some new friends! Overall, ASD is a super special place. I'm so glad my family found it and I'd recommend it to anyone interested!

    I cannot recommend KravZone highly enough, especially for parents looking to enroll their children…read morein Krav Maga classes. My experience with their kids' program has been nothing short of exceptional, hats off to the incredible instructor, Travis! From day one, it was evident that Travis was not only highly skilled in Krav Maga but also knew the knack of teaching and working with children. Whether a child was struggling with a technique or excelling at it, Travis was present very watchfully, providing guidance, support, and positive reinforcement. One of the things that stood out to me the most was Travis's ability to create a supportive and encouraging environment for the kids. Moreover, he has a unique talent for breaking down complex techniques into simple, easy-to-understand steps, making it accessible and observable for children of all skill levels. What stood out to me in particular was his own values, principles and attitude which in my opinion are of paramount importance especially while teaching life skills to others. Beyond his technical expertise, Travis also instilled important values such as team work, discipline, respect, and self-confidence in the children. Through his teaching, my child not only gained valuable self-defense skills but also developed a sense of empowerment and self-assurance that extends beyond the mat. Beth, who is also an instructor and helps with the front desk, is extremely patient and helpful with any questions and a great teacher herself from the classes I've observed! If you're considering enrolling your child in Krav Maga classes, look no further than Krav Zone!

    My daughter and I really enjoy doing the Krav and cub classes. My only complaint is that our class…read morestarts late almost every time and the time does not get made up because another class starts right afterwards. I do agree that it's good to warm up before starting classes but I feel that there might be too much time running back-and-forth. Occasionally it feels like a way to keep us busy while they are speaking to other people. We've had a couple classes with Beth, she is very nice and patient with the little ones. Travis was our main coach for a few months and I can tell the older kids work better with him. They only have beginner and advanced classes. It would be nice to have an intermediate class as well. I think in general more classes would be helpful as you cannot graduate to certain belts unless you are taking two classes a week. We signed up for a year and will plan to continue for as long as possible. I do recommend this place. * updated to add that now that school has started, they just brought in another trainer (Shlomi) to teach the older kids since the class size has doubled. He is very good at teaching new techniques properly. I feel that he is the best match for my yellow belt 8 year old.

It's clear coach Bill and their team genuinely enjoy coaching. They're real students of the game studying tactics and strategy practiced by the best. I am grateful my family and I found this place. My kids have gained so much from being here. If you're considering joining foor either your or your children my wife and I give modern training academy the highest of recommendations.

They have three boys that are simply amazing in the art form. We started to attend and immediately recognized the skill level of the coaches, MASTER Evon, Coach Scott, and Coach Mike. They have taught my kid the discipline of the art, the respectfulness that comes with their style of training and the patience and perseverance used to teach and groom to all those that attend! Myself and my wife feel especially blessed to have their coaches in our lives and have groomed my son to be excited, involved and experienced, especially in the art of taekwondo along with the other classes they offer that include jiu-jitsu and wrestling. If you are looking for a gym, whether you are a younger child, teenager or an adult, I highly recommend this gym. The coaches are very keen on teaching the students the art and appear to have a very experienced successful background from a high-level and have been coaching for many moons. If you are not a student and are interested in any of these art forms please check this gym out. It will help your kid to grow, get skilled in the art of self-defense and become more disciplined along with really having a great time. Never a dull moment at the gym! I really wanna commend MASTER Evon and Coach Scott along with Coach Mike for their dedication to the students as they never miss any time when it comes to practice and motivate the kids to be great and want to do well. Many thanks to Modern Training Academy...you gotta check it out.
