“Not only do they teach self defense and how to protect themselves, they also teach how to get away from predators which unfortunately is needed in this world now a days.”
What members say
“Miss Anne is not only a phenomenal instructor, but a great role model that teaches the children self-defense, structure and most importantly, respect.”
“My son was nervous on his first day, but the instructor took him under his wing immediately.”
“I tried a lesson at Kirk’s Martial Arts and got hooked immediately.”
“I've been amazed by the positive transformation in my little guy in just a few months.”
“If you want your child to learn skills and build confidence in an atmosphere that feels more like extended family than just a business, then Kirk's is your only choice!”
“There is also a great deal of flexibility with the classes, which is so helpful when trying to manage schedules and competing activities.”
From the reviews
We started as guests to a birthday party here June 2024, and they offer every kid a free week to come check it out. My son fell in love. Not only do they teach self defense and how to protect themselves, they also teach how to get away from predators which unfortunately is needed in this world now a days.
We've been so impressed by the Tiny Champs program for ages 4-7. With my son starting at age 4, I was nervous about the age range at first, but it's been great to see how the little ones look up to the bigger kids, and this mentality is fostered and reinforced effectively by Ms. Anne.
If you want to enroll your child in a martial arts program in the West Chester area, I wouldn't consider another place than Kirk's. Classes are small, instructors are incredibly knowledgeable, and they know how to work with kids of all ages. Ernie and Anne Kirk take the time to get to know your child and your family.
Kirk’s Martial Arts and Krav Maga is an amazing place for both my husband and me. He enjoys training with Ernie Kirk where he has stepped up his Krav skills while I have the pleasure of training with Dr. Anne Kirk who kicks my butt with amazing kettlebell workouts each week.
Your first kickboxing class at Kirk's Martial Arts & 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.
