Awesome self-defense class for our Keller Williams Corona realtors! Neff is a wonderful instructor and a bada$$! Can't wait for more!! read more

Amazing! I learned so much about self defense in an hour but want to learn so much more! My only regret is not taking this class sooner (100% suggest for young ladies ages 10-25). It also gave me the confidence to talk/teach to my daughter about self defense. Once she turns ten this will be the theme of her birthday party with all her girlfriends.

Modern Combat & Survival Training - Martial Arts Near Me - Corona, California

Every female needs Neff's training. My cousin and I took a private class with Neff. The amount of info I learned in the first 5 mins of our session was life changing. I now know what to do/handle a situation if anyone were to ever attack me. I know what to look for. I know how to gain control and defend myself. Our private session left us wanting more, we will be signing up for group classes for sure. read more

Very highly recommend taking a self defense class from these guys. Such useful and valuable information. Every woman needs to take a class or two !! read more

I would highly recommend them! They taught a class at a local mom group, and leaving the class I felt so so prepared! They taught us many different ways to protect us, and as a mom I feel a lot more confident in my ability to protect myself. We learned so much in the hour they were with us. When my son is old enough, I would love to sign him up for classes. read more

Neff is amazing! I have put together a few events with Neff. Everyone absolutely loved the classes. We learned so much. He really cares that people learn to do it properly. They teach so we understand and apply it to everyday life! We continue to train with the best: Neff! read more

See all

This place is amazing. My instructor Nef is very knowledgeable, professional, and hella deadly. He will teach you real life scenarios of offense and defense. I Highly recommend. read more

Love my sessions with Neft! Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to learn more about Krav Maga!

I enjoyed every second of training here. Nef and Louis taught me so much in such a short span of time; I only took classes for a couple of months before moving across the country and it didn't take long to feel empowered, stronger, and safer in my own skin. Both were incredibly patient and attentive, not to mention so encouraging and always pushed me to train harder. Highly recommend training with these guys at any age, for any amount of time to learn valuable and life-saving skills. Thank you guys!! read more

Where do I start? This place is awesome for those looking to train hard and learn real life combat survival skills. Krav Maga is not a sport; it's a survival system. The Instructor: Nef is the head instructor and provides world class instruction. I have trained with him off and on for a total of about 6 months. He's an excellent coach who knows how to teach anyone ranging from experienced fighters to first timers. He creates an environment conducive to learning, yet simulates real life situations. He also gets in the mix and frequently trains and fights with us during the classes. The Facility: there is nothing special about the appearance of the training room. What makes it unique is the small space adds the real life application of situational awareness. Working around small spaces and training partners is actually a great learned skill. The People: You have a range of people who attend this school. Honestly the people who do best are those that are willing to train hard. There is a lot of sparring and combat training in each class. I can honestly say no one is trying to hurt anyone, but getting hit and hitting other people is the reality. For real life self defense, this is essential. If staying in shape is your primary motivating factor, find a different gym. This place is in the business of keeping you alive when you are being forced to fight for your life. Lastly, Nef and the school are very supportive of Law Enforcement and Military. There are multiple cops and firefighters who train here regularly. read more

Can't say enough about this training team. In just one class I already feel 100 times more prepared. They came out to give myself and other Moms some basic survival self defense. I will forever be grateful. As soon as my boys are old enough they will be taking classes here. read more

Took a self defense class with Neff today and it was an amazing experience. He was knowledgeable, patient, and taught me many techniques to protect myself and my children if I ever needed to. I will be coming back for additional classes. I feel so much more prepared now and most importantly be made me know how capable I am! Thank you Neff!!! read more

Being in Krav Maga has been one of the best decisions that I have ever made and I would highly recommend these classes for anyone. As a woman, learning to protect myself and others in dangerous situations is invaluable and something that I am grateful to have. I trained with this group from 8/15-10/16. Neff was the primary instructor, with Louis and Todd also instructing several classes. Each class covered an initial warm up, combative techniques, self defense techniques, and simulation drills. Each instructor is awesome and will personally work with you to improve your techniques. You will also work with classmates varying in different ages and levels. The drills were used to take what we learned and apply them in a simulated situation (For instance, being choked and pushed from behind). We also had training in knife and gun defense techniques and reenacted active shooter situations. These helped me to ingrain what I learned into muscle memory. I initially started taking these classes with my brother to learn self defense, but learned so much more. I became stronger, confident, and able to react rather than hesitate. These classes were a lot of fun and everyone there was welcoming and friendly. I was sad to leave due to relocating for a new job, but hope to visit a class sometime again soon. Check these classes out! read more

The real deal! Neft, Todd, and Mike are all awesome guys. I believe there's one more instructor but I haven't met him yet. I was looking for a Krav Maga class for a while and went to one in rancho, which was also a nice class just a little too far from my house. Anyway the head instructor Neft is an awesome guy, he makes sure to take time and make you feel very comfortable and know the technique before advancing. He's very respectful and knowledgable. I would highly recommend trying the class out! It's a great workout and always fun learning how to defend yourself in stressful situations. read more

When it comes to 80 percent plus of martial arts/self defense training it's a sport where you perfect a technique that is anything but perfect. At Corona Krav Maga you won't learn a sport filled with ineffective techniques, with hard work, you'll learn how to meet violence with violence and be able walk in peace knowing that you will accept nothing less than getting home to your family alive. We are a family where we all train to not only make ourselves but each other better every class. Also, where other places will only instruct you on what belt you're testing for, at Modern Combat we are fortunate enough to learn brown/black belt material even when you are years away from those belts. The question is, how much is your life worth? And is the place you choose going to help you to preserve it? Come train with a family that'll make you more than a fighter! read more

I been training here for the past few years and the instructor is the best you'll find in the Inland Empire. Coming here has helped me out and I've been able to accomplish a lot of things in class and it also helped me in my personal life. read more

Amazing instructors, great work out, and you learn self defense moves that work on anyone!

My daughter and I attended an active shooter seminar and walked away with a wealth of knowledge. Amazing instructors, that push hard to make sure you understand the concepts. Also, non-judgmental of this out of shape, middle aged Mama that could not keep up. They did not instruct to go looking for trouble, but gave us the tools to know what to do if we are ever in an unescapable situation. I highly recommend this incredibly talented group of instructors that push you to be your best. We'll be back for your next seminar. read more

This class is amazing and all the instructors are so great. This class is for people of all ages and they teach amazing real self defense AND respect. I have my two daughters in this class and they are 11 and 13. They are teaching and reinforcing what we have always taught our girls about respect and how nobody should touch them without asking. I really can't say enough about how much I love this class and the instructors. I hope my kids never have to use what they learn but I'm confident that if they do they will survive. read more

I've been training in this school for over 2 years and have learned a lot. The instructors are great and take the time teach. They really care about the safety of their students and believe in what they teach. When I moved out of the city of Corona, I attended other schools and became dissatisfied and returned.This school is the real deal. They also cater to law enforcement, as they offer a law enforcement curriculum in Krav maga and a discount. read more

I have been training here since Nov. 2012. It has been one of the best investments on my personal life! When I started I had no prior self defense background. The first month I was so nervous and my confidence level was so low. But because of the three wonderful instructors and their help, encouragement, and experience, I have learned a skill that everyone should know. And since it's an ongoing practice where you continue to add upon what you already know, I am fully committed to continue training. Awesome workout and the best instructors! read more

I have been training here for almost a year now after being introduced to Krav Maga at UFC Gym in Corona a few years ago(also taught by Nef). I have been very satisfied with the training and the overall experience at Modern Combat and Survival. Level 1 and Level 2/3 classes are offered which focus on combatives and various defenses including knife and gun. Various drills are done including stress and multiple-attacker drills that really push one's cardio and allow the combatives and defenses to be put to action. The emphasis is on self-defense and doing what you have to do to get back home to your loved ones(or protecting them AND yourself )if you find yourself in a bad situation. I also like that there is also a focus on situational awareness as well as the the legalities of defending oneself. The instructors including Nef, Louis, and Todd are quality individuals who are very professional, approachable, and care about the students progressing while making sure everyone is training safely. Class size is good to allow individualized attention and fellow students, many who have been training with Nef for years push you to get better and keep coming to class. Good family atmosphere! Great for ladies and kids/teens! Great for those in Law Enforcement! Friday night is fight night and it is a good opportunity to spar and work on combos and defenses. Overall, this is a great Krav Maga program and a viable system for those looking for a self-defense system vs doing martial arts for sport. I am happy to train at Modern Combat and plan to keep training! read more
