Keyless Entry Option

Keyless Entry Option
Overview As we continue to monitor NY State’s regional phased re-opening plan, while we’re still several weeks away from being granted the opportunity to open our doors, we would like to begin to offer our members the option to train in a responsible way, one that will balance our need to maintain critical business function, your need to stay active, and the needs of our community.

Our Re-Opening Plan

We test Krav Maga students on a scale from 1 to 10. I’ve never given a 10 at any point in time, on any of the tests I’ve run. And it’s really hard for me to give a 9. I can pretty much recall every 9 I’ve ever given. That’s how rare it is. I’m telling you this to put what I’m going to say next into perspective. I can now say with 90% certainty that we will reopen. I refuse to say it with 100% certainty for the same reason I never give a 10. It’s just not me. Our re-opening plan is broken up into stages, detailed and changing to meet guidelines and safety standards. I’ll try to break it down here as simply as I can. Stage I starts ....

Meet Sydney

I definitely was looking for a change. I had joined gyms before, but just kind of felt stuck. My first class was brutal, I don't think I've ever sweat that much in my entire life, but I loved it. I felt really proud. I never thought that I would take a self defense class. It seemed intimidating. I was nervous to join a group of people who where...

Meet Bob

I travel internationally a lot to countries all over the world, several of them not safe at all. I was bored with the traditional gym and I was looking for a workout routine that would comb one fitness with self defense, and something that was going to engage me mind and body. And I found Krav. My first class here was with Davide. He's a wonderful teacher. One thing that surprised me...

Meet Susan

My concern about coming to Krav Maga New York was first that I was not fit enough, I was too old, I just was afraid that it would be too strenuous for me and I wouldn't be able to keep up. I was wrong. My first class there were other people like me who were just beginning. There was no feeling that I couldn't do it. I am strong enough, and I became fit doing Krav Maga and their fitness classes. My family thought I was crazy at first...
