Advanced techniques were taught in the first few courses, without basic moves being covered first. Normally I'd let it go, but the only other current review is five stars. That was the absolute opposite of my experience.

I've been looking for Krav Maga classes for about a year now and wasn't able to find very much in…read morethe Dayton area, recently I found out that training is being offered and unlike other facilities in Dayton they offer only Krav Maga, not a blended form. For those of you who are curious, Krav Maga is a form of self defense / martial arts that orginated in Isreal in response to real world situations, it's still used today by the Isreali Defense Forces, law enforcement agencies, and military forces around the world, as well as for practical self defense for everyone. This particular training is held at the Dayton Jewish Community Center (the class is open to anyone however), currently sessions are on wednesdays from 7-8pm, a second training night is being considered. The founder and instructor Tim Tharp is very friendly and knowledgable, he made me feel very welcome. I wasn't quite sure what to expect when I arrived but after the initial waivers were signed I was encouraged to jump right into the class and start learning (the first class is free by the way!). In just the one class I learned a few very practical techniques that I could use in real world situations, this is what drew me to Krav Maga in the first place. While there are many forms of martial arts to choose from, I wanted one that was more than just earning belts and strict technique, Dayton Krav Maga has satisfied that requirement very well. Don't hesitate to check them out, the training is for young, old, male, female, anyone could benefit!

When I arrived I realized it's a legit boxing gym. No frills and no thrills. It's like out of an old boxing movie. However, the staff were really friendly and helpful. They had mitts and tape for me to use. (I recommend bringing your own if you have it) Ashley, one of the instructors, walked me step by step on how to wrap my hands and she give me a quick intro to some of the moves prior to the class beginning. I had an amazing workout and torched some serious calories. If you're looking to change up your fitness routine I highly suggest you give Drakes a try. (Bonus, the first class is free)

As far as getting a workout is concerned this place should do, however if you consider yourself a…read moremartial artist and want to learn boxing as a form of self defense or on a competitive level then stay the hell away from this place. First night I show up they offer no free classes or a free trial, then before getting to know me the owner asked if I was interested in fighting in his charity fight, the whole thing smelled fishy. Next, on to when I actually got to spar. The "fighters" have zero self control and only aim for the head with about 100% of their power behind the punch, no wonder he needs volunteers to get beat up so bad. Everyone keeps getting injured sparring because there isn't any guidance or skill. The instructors told me very little about themselves so who knows if they have even been in a real boxing match themselves. Yet their training people on how to go into the ring and get beat up! Like I said, they offer a pretty good conditioning exercise but no real boxing technique except standing flat footed and brawling.

DO NOT PUT YOUR KIDS IN SPORTS HERE!! Was not satisfied with how last year ran but I gave them a…read morepass it seemed like they were trying to put kids health into consideration because Aug last year was very hot. But starting late cause the kids to be playing during the snow or freezing temperatures. They added a game for the week following the "close" of the season. They have no regard for parents schedules. Season should be starting Saturday sept 5th. It's been postponed to sept 13th. But some teams will have games Saturday the 5th. I have 2 kids and have no schedule for either kids team. How am I supposed to schedule life if they can't get me a schedule and not make last minute changes?!? If the refs are as bad this year as last it's going down. U4 games should last 30 mins max. One of our daughters last over an hour because the ref couldn't keep track of time! Hire people who know how to use a stopwatch or tell time. I left the sports director a voicemail and I've still not gotten a call back. They do not prioritize timeliness. Practice schedules went out the week before they started. It's no surprise the teams barely have 9 players each. Parents don't want the bullcrap.
