★★★★★ — K, Apr 2021

I've waited to review since I've been coming here for a while now. This training is excellent for self-defense and particularly for single women (especially in this current climate) who want to feel empowered and confident.

★★★★★ — Melissa, Jun 2025

I started Krav Maga about 4 years ago at Krav Maga Worldwide in Los Angeles. I was never athletic before and always hated working out but once I started taking Krav Maga classes, my entire outlook changed. I LOVE working out now and I'm learning an awesome skillset while I do it.

★★★★★ — Kirsten, Aug 2019

Sought this class last year after being a survivor of multiple assaults in my life. It was so empowering to learn practical skills and even though I only went to a few self defense classes I was able to defend myself yesterday during another attempt with what I learned from Coach MC and it felt indescribably amazing…

New to kickboxing? Start at Krav Maga Renton

Krav Maga Renton comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. 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 Krav Maga Renton

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.
