I rarely give 5 stars to anything in google maps, but this place is totally worth every penny I spent there. Extremely good instructors an a safe environment o learn self defense. However, note that this location is only one of three places where KMI holds their classes and a majority of the classes are downtown at TriBeCa.

After witnessing one too many instances on the train where situations got escalated or could have been de-escalated, I decided it time to do a more self-defense style martial art. Keep in mind I've had years of prior martial arts experience (5+ years combined boxing, kickboxing, etc) and even then I felt that wasn't enough in situations outside of the ring.
I had heard about Krav Maga in the past and after doing some research I found Krav Maga Institute. A few reasons I narrowed it down to this particular academy are their availability of classes throughout the week, it is affordable and their locations.
I took the Induction class and from then I was hooked. There's a great community at the academy, the instructors are very supportive and break things down in simple steps, a diverse range of levels in each class, and they do special events/seminars bringing outside experts to the academy.
If you're looking for an academy that will teach you solid self-defense techniques, give you good workout along with a great community to boot, then sign up for the Induction class and experience it for yourself.

I attended the "How to Survive a Bar Fight" seminar and I loved it. Mike showed a variety of techniques in different scenarios creating a very engaging and fast-paced atmosphere while at the same time keeping everybody safe. I like his professionalism and outspokenness.
I am new to Krav Maga, but I enjoy the classes at the Institute.

I have attended several Krav Maga classes through the Krav Maga Institute and have really enjoyed them. The classes are a fabulous workout and I am always happy about how much the classes work my body. Not to mention learning self defense moves is pretty cool! The instructors are all super positive and encouraging and I always leave class in a good mood. I also like that the warm-ups are related to the Krav Maga moves in the second half of the class.With my busy schedule it's convenient that there are several locations.Overall I've really enjoyed the classes because I not only get a good workout but also end up feeling safer on NYC streets. I recommend the Krav Maga Institute to all my friends.

For about 8 months I've been training consistently at Krav Maga Institute NYC and it has been the best decision I've ever made. I've become more confident in my skills to protect myself in the streets and I owe it to the great instructors of KMI, I feel more fearless. They're always there to answer any questions you have and are always pushing you to keep going when you feel like giving up. The students are also great and friendly and we're always pushing each other to do better. The instructors are always changing up the workouts to keep things interesting and fun. Krav Maga has changed my life for the better, I feel stronger and more energetic. So if you're looking to learn Krav Maga, Krav Maga Institute NYC is your best bet and it should be your first and last chose. You won't regret it.

If you're ever in the mood for a great workout and an immediate boost in self esteem, Krav Maga is the answer. The Krav Maga institute NYC has been such a life changer for me. It has taught me integrity, endurance, and has made me a stronger person, physically mentally. My instructors are amazing and very welcoming. They really know how to make the class challenging and exciting. By the end of the class I find myself simultaneously tired yet still energetic, which is a strange but exhilarating feeling and I often wish classes were longer. The only regret I have is not starting Krav Maga sooner!

After trying out three other Krav Maga schools in NY, I found Krav Maga Institute NYC (IKMF) to be the best with it's wide range of students and instructors.
The techniques taught in class are up to date, the facilities are clean and modern, and the instructors are helpful, supportive, and they don't make me feel stupid if I'm slow learning something new in class.
As for the locations, my favorite is the upper west side since it is closer to home and usually not to many people in the changing room. My least favorite is the midtown location since the locker/changing room facilities are small and limited.

I train in Krav Maga in California and trained with these guys while visiting NYC. Everyone here works HARD! The students work hard, the instructors work hard. It's awesome to see. There's an awesome community and they all train with great technique. I definitely recommend KMI if you're looking for a way to build up real self defense skills and confidence!
