First 60-Minute Private Session - $99
General Questions About Private Self-Defense Training
How do I book my first session?
Choose one of the guaranteed appointment times in the online booking calendar and reserve your first 60-minute private session for $99. If none of the availabilities work for you, contact Coach Mike because additional times may be possible.
What type of self-defense training should I expect during class?
Streetwise Martial Arts specializes in the martial art of Krav Maga, supported by the integration of Muay Thai, Boxing, and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. During the course of your training you’ll learn armed attacker defenses, striking skills, ground fighting tactics, and takedowns. Everything is geared towards defending yourself in unavoidable violent confrontations while prioritizing prevention and emotional control. Classes are challenging yet supportive, with modifications for all fitness levels.
Do I need any prior experience to join?
No. Beginners are absolutely welcome. Coach Mike tailors instruction for your abilities so everyone progresses safely and effectively.
Do you offer private Krav Maga lessons for kids?
Yes, kids ages 5-13 can participate in private lessons. For small groups of children, participants should generally be within about two years of one another in age so differences in size and physical development don’t make partner training unsafe.

Everyone’s first one-on-one session is $99. If you continue with a class package for more training after that, your first session becomes Session 1 of whichever class pack you choose. The $99 first-class cost is credited towards the class pack total as long as you purchase it within 72 hours of completing your first class.

For your first session it is recommended to wear comfortable gym/athletic attire and bring water. Indoor-only footwear is also preferred for hygiene (but not required).
Will I need any special equipment?
