I am turning 60 and have been taking Krav here for a year. The adult classes are a good combination of combatives and self defense techniques for the 20-30 yr olds as well as for those my age.

This is an awesome school. Mr. Croley is a very knowledgeable Self Defense instructor and a true martial artist. You will not find any where better for instruction in practical self defense or character development for your child.

I would recommend Croleys premier martial arts for anyone and everyone. I have 4 sons and the awesome staff works with them both individually and as a group. They are awesome, especially with my son on the autism spectrum. Every month they do some extra awesome stuff geared toward both the kids and family. Give them a try! You won't regret it!

My son has been going to Master Croley for krav maga training and has learned so much more than just fighting/defense... he's also built his confidence, learned discipline/restraint, and had so much fun doing it. If you are looking for a school that teaches real skills in a disciplined AND fun(ny) environment... this is the place to go. 100% recommend.
