After a three decade 'break', it was nice to be on the mat again. Asher feels like the perfect instructor to start over with - patient and thoughtful. He has an overall knowledge of multiple disciplines and even shared some real life experiences during the class. I'm almost twice the woman (IYKYK) I was before. I was afraid that it would be too much and I would get overwhelmed. I was able to acclimate which helped me feel less anxious. My push ups and squats weren't up to par, I know that they'll continue to improve. *Why now? After 30+ years? Two weeks ago I was sucker punched by a violent stranger at Starbucks on Mendo/Steele in SR. I don't want to start a fight but I know I want to finish one, w/out a concussion and my eardrum ruptured. Can't think of when I'd last thrown a punch... I want to be ready when/if it happens again. I believe Asher and Krav Maga Revolution are a key part of that journey. read more

We have been training with Asher since November and he is such an amazing human. His teaching style is very patient and encouraging but also he tells it like it is. He has so much knowledge about self defense and about how to protect yourself. He explains the why's for all the techniques he is teaching. I know my daughter has gained more confidence and we are excited to learn more. read more

I just completed a 6-week transformation course at Krav Maga Revolution and I could not recommend it highly enough. Throughout the 6 weeks, I lost a total of 20lbs, but even if I hadn't lost any weight, I would still recommend the experience. Going to the classes made me feel more focused at work, and my endurance and stamina improved tremendously. The classes were definitely challenging (some more than others, especially Filthy Fridays!) but with Asher and the supportive environment, I felt encouraged and was able to push myself further than I expected. Asher is a really great teacher. He is very knowledgeable about Krav Maga, and he's definitely passionate about his students and making sure they succeed. He did a great job explaining the different skills in depth, going over the movements, variations, and practical usages. He always made sure to ask if there were any injuries to report, putting our safety first, and I always felt comfortable enough to voice my concerns or ask for further explanation when needed. With that said, Asher is very aware of how far he can push you, and he makes sure that you're not just floating by in class. He's very accommodating to each person's fitness level, and always customized the workouts to each person's ability. One of my favorite parts of Krav Maga Revolution is the amount of classes offered each day, starting from 7am to 8.30pm, making it really easy to fit into my work schedule. Personally, I loved going to the 7am KravFit classes, they always left me feeling so accomplished so early in the morning. Another great thing about the studio is how varied each class is from the other--one day you might be doing 'Agression Training' (which is a lot more fun and less scary than it sounds!) and another day is focused entirely on side kicks, or learning how to get up from the ground without using your hands (which is a lot harder than it sounds, especially when you do it 50 times in a row). All in all, I think it's an awesome studio regardless of your fitness level, even if you've never worked out or you're a black belt in Judo. And if you're willing to put in the work (because it is hard work), you'll get a lot out of it. read more

Krav Maga Revolution in Petaluma California is awesome for those who are looking to learn self-defense, become fit, learn how to diet or simply enjoy a new activity that requires physical activity. The instructors are very helpful on correcting your technique and explaining each exercise by applying it to real life situations. I recommend the six week challenge, for I completed it and found that it taught me some basics on self defense, challenged my endurance with certain exercises and it allowed me to get out of my comfort zone by participating in Krav Maga classes, sparring and KravFit. read more

The self defense instruction and compassion at the school are beyond remarkable. I started with a 6 week challenge and lost 22 pounds. Asher is an awesome instructor, explains things very well and is extremely patient as the slower people like myself take to the new techniques. The accountability structure built into the classes make it easy to focus on your goals and changes. Asher provides an incredible structured plan to follow right down to every thing from eating, home exercises, class schedules, grocery shopping lists and everything else you could imagine to make it a no brainer approach to getting in shape and gaining remarkable confidence in self defense. The only thing anybody needs is just a true willingness to improve themselves and he lays out everything else. I'm extremely impressed with the school and Asher as a teacher. It's truly a best in class community. read more

I started with a Six Week Transformation Challenge, and became a full member. Asher is a natural instructor who is both calming to the mind and motivational. Krav Maga Revolution is my go to when I need to get my head right. The people I have met in my journey thus far have been positive and encouraging! While I haven't seen a tremendous difference on the scale my clothes are looser, my belt went down 2 full notches! I look forward to more training!!! read more
