Our children take self defense with fusion combat and we are pleased with how much they have learned and how they continue to grow. Coach Jesse and coach Pedro create a great environment that focuses on technical skills, advocacy, responsibility and respect - skills we see our kids carry in and outside of their lessons. While our children took martial arts before Fusion Combat - their previous experience in large classes that focused on kicking speed challenges and kicking and punching through wood fell short. Fusion Combat is the best martial arts experience we have had so far. If you are looking for a great opportunity for your children to learn martial arts and learn how to be responsible community members and leaders, I highly recommend Fusion Combat.

Jesse is awesome! We took the orientation class and my daughter learned so much in an hour it was amazing! I highly recommend this program because the teaching style and philosophy behind it are so beneficial and it teaches a young lady how to not only defend herself, but self esteem and discipline as well!

Lot of fun. Jesse is a great instructor and will work with your schedule. Once you get comfortable with the basics and begin grappling and striking drills with other students, the classes become way more rewarding and practical.

The best decision I made was to take the first step to see what this is all about. Short story - some history with martial arts. In comparison to Fusion, it was really more like a kick boxing class. A little older so the '70's body and skills have long since resigned. With Fusion, you will find movement with a purpose and the stepping stones to grow physically and mentally. It will build coordination, physical fitness and confidence. You will find professionalism and fun with everyone working toward the same goals and supporting each other along the way. That only comes from great leadership. If my schedule would allow, I would be there daily! I encourage everyone to check out Fusion. It is a place that I have sought for a long time. Simply put, It Fits!

Research the Basics

Before you attend your first class, it’s important to do some research on the basics of Krav Maga. Familiarize yourself with the basic stances and movements so that you have a better understanding of what will be taught in class. This will help you follow along better during the session and make it easier for you to learn the techniques. Most self-defense schools prefer you arrive 5-10 minutes early to fill out a waiver, meet your instructor, and be assigned a partner if necessary.

Get Physically Prepared

Krav Maga is a physically demanding activity, so it’s important that you get your body ready for it. Make sure that you are prepared to get engage physically before attending your first class by doing some light exercise such as jogging or stretching. This will help ensure that your body is prepared for the physical demands of Krav Maga and reduce the risk of injury during training.

Choose Appropriate Clothing

When attending a Krav Maga class, it’s important to wear clothing that is comfortable and allows for freedom of movement. Avoid wearing baggy clothing as this can restrict your movements and make it difficult to perform certain techniques. It’s also important to wear shoes with good grip as this will help prevent slipping during training. It’s a good idea to bring an extra towel, shirt, and deodorant as well just in case. You’ll want to remove all jewelry, including rings, watches, earrings, etc..

Bring Water and Snacks

Krav Maga classes can be quite intense and require a lot of energy from participants. To ensure that you have enough energy throughout the session, make sure to bring water and snacks with you so that you can stay hydrated and energized throughout the session. This will help ensure that you get the most out of your training session and maximize your learning potential.

Meet Your Classmates

Krav Maga has no tournaments or competitions. As a result, it draws more hobbyists the MMA enthusiasts. Your classmates are there for the same reason you are, to learn how to stay safe by taking self defense classes. Be proactive about meeting people and asking questions when needed. Chances are your classmates had the same question when they first started.

Leave the Ego at Home

Krav Maga will challenge both your mind and body. You will be pushed beyond your comfort zone and past your normal limits. As a result, you will make mistakes and sometimes even think you are foolish for trying. But that is not the case. You are present, you are learning, and you are bettering yourself. Enjoy every challenge, and be willing to laugh at yourself along the way.

Conclusion

By following these tips, you should be well prepared for your first Krav Maga class! Remember to do some research on the basics beforehand, get physically prepared, choose appropriate clothing, and bring water and snacks with you so that you can stay energized throughout the session! Good luck!
