From the reviews

I have been with Krav Maga Institute for five years and I continue to learn new self defense skills from a great team of Instructors. I looked all over N. Colorado for a place that focuses on self-defense and conditioning. After my first class, I was hooked. Signed up that day and have been re-signing each year.

★★★★★ — Brian, Apr 2018

In March my school brought a huge group of nearly 40 high school students to the Krav gym as a part of a week long "zombie apocalypse survival course". Christian and Will taught a TWO HOUR LONG CLASS with our horde of high schoolers.

★★★★★ — Ryan, May 2023

They recently hosted an event for an anti-trafficking nonprofit I’m involved with, and they did an incredible job! Christian and Will packed so much valuable, practical training into a short class — it was empowering, easy to grasp, and such a meaningful experience for learning self-defense.

★★★★★ — Abundant, Oct 2025

I’ve been Training here at the Krav Maga Institute for quite a while and I have enjoyed every moment of it! Authentic Israeli Krav Maga taught by upper echelon instructors at a high intensity pace.

New to kickboxing? Start at Evolve Krav Maga

Evolve Krav Maga comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners class is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or coordinated to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale every drill to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable gyms build the basics (stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads and bags) first, and any contact eases in gradually under a coach's control. Third, all fitness levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.

Your first kickboxing class at Evolve Krav Maga

Nervous about walking into a kickboxing gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics — stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads or a heavy bag — not hard sparring. Go at your own pace and rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: comfortable athletic clothes you can move and sweat in, and supportive trainers. What to bring: water, and hand wraps and gloves if you have them — many gyms lend loaner gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves and wraps (and shin guards once you start sparring). Sparring is optional and eases in gradually, once your basics are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

Kickboxing is a contact sport. Warm up, pace yourself, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
