Email us at [email protected] for availability regarding our private Intro. Lesson (Free) and Trial Class. Space is limited to one individual and a reservation is needed.

Students start with a 30-minute, one-on-one Intro. Lesson where they'll learn (or review) some fundamentals of Krav Maga in a personalized setting. This private session is designed to give students a solid foundation and prepare someone for our group training. Immediately following your private lesson, students will join a 60-minute, trial class with the same Instructor. This ensures a smooth transition into our group environment while benefiting from the guidance of your Instructor. During the class students will experience our community and get a sense of our teaching style and methodologies. Afterward, students will have a brief summary and Q&A session where they can ask any additional questions about continuing their training and what to expect moving forward with us. It's a perfect way to begin one's self-defense journey with confidence and support!

1. Pick an available date for your private Intro. Lesson + Trial Class.
2. Provide your contact information (phone number and date of birth).
3. Complete the Email link (includes signing the waiver and making a trial class payment).

We'd love to have you train with us! To ensure the best experience, we ask that everyone schedule an Intro. (or Review) Lesson + Trial Class in advance. Unfortunately, we aren't able to accommodate walk-ins or class observations without a reservation.

Yes. Contact Combat SLC follows a belted system whereby new material and new techniques separate ranks from White through Black Belt. There are six belts: Yellow, Orange, Green, Blue, Brown, and Black Belt.

We require everyone that’s interested in training with us to schedule an Intro. or review Lesson (Free) and Trial Class. Please share your previous training experience when you inquire about availability.

Gi Pants are a specially-designed type of pants used for martial arts. Our preference is made of ripstop material (durable and light) and have a drawstring-fitted waist. They typically are shorter in length than sweatpants and wider in cut, allowing free movement of the legs. Gi pants with a Contact Combat SLC patch are required when students test to Yellow Belt.

Yes. They are a wonderful gift for someone special.

See the class schedule on the Classes page. 

Foundations Class is for new students or White Belts. Beginner Classes are for Yellow, Orange, and Green Belt students. Advanced Classes are for Blue, Brown, and Black Belt students. 

This class will focus both on the "foundations" of our beginner classes and getting our new students prepared for partner training. The basics covered in technical detail will include: jump roping, basic stances, box steps, head movement, guards, coverups, fall breaks, technical stand-ups, sprawls, rolls, punch numbers, and basic combatives including elbows, knees, and kicks. Once beginners are solid on their foundations, and invited to attend Beginner's Class, defensive and offensive techniques with training partners will be introduced. Foundations Class format will be slow, smooth, technical, and repetitive.

Training is recommended two to three times consistently per week. Less is less and more is better than less.

We offer private Intro. Lessons (Free), trial classes, multiple class package memberships, monthly* memberships, family monthly* memberships, private and semi-private lessons.

We understand pricing is an important factor when choosing self-defense training, but it shouldn't be the only one. Our memberships offer competitive pricing without compromising on quality. With over 40 years of combined experience, our professional and committed instructors provide top-level training designed to help you build real-world skills. Quality training is an investment in your safety and development–choosing solely based on price may not provide the same level of expertise and commitment. You owe it to yourself to invest in the most important person–yourself! Please Email us at [email protected] for our pricing.

No. We offer several options for training–from individual classes, multiple class packages, 1 month* and 1 month* family membership packages. *Recurring payments.

Our class memberships are designed to offer flexibility and value. Please note: class package memberships (including Teens) are non-transferable, non-refundable and cannot be extended past the expiration date, regardless of Member's attendance. Expiration dates cannot be extended. Students are responsible for knowing their Membership expiration date. We do not issue refunds or credits. Private Intro. Lessons and Trial Classes have a 24 hr. cancellation policy and expire 30 days from reservation date. The 5 Class Membership expires 30 days from date of purchase. The 10 Class Membership expires 45 days from date of purchase. The 1 Month Memberships are recurring payments and processed every 30 days. Private Lessons have a 24 hr. cancellation policy and expire 30 days from date of purchase. Please Email us at [email protected] for our pricing.

After your private Introductory Lesson and group Trial Class with us, you will receive a comprehensive outline of our membership options, terms, and fees. This ensures you have all the information needed to make an informed decision.

We do, all major credit cards including American Express. We utilize a software management system called Gym Rocket that allows our Members to set-up their accounts, allowing hassle free, automatically scheduled and processed payments. It's convenient for everyone! Members can also complete retail purchases and one-time charges with multiple payment options attached to their account. 

All participants are required to have groin protection, a mouth guard, a jump rope, and boxing gloves every class.

Maybe, if your dentist recommends it–but most students wear a single, boil-and-bite style mouth guard. We have them in stock.

Because of safety and hygiene reasons all students will need to have their own personal boxing gloves to use in our classes, we will no longer have general or community use equipment.

We allow 14 oz. size, lace-up, safety sparring boxing gloves in our classes. No velcro style closures, heavy bag gloves or weighted gloves of any kind will be permitted. Please show to the Instructor (for inspection) prior to usage with your training partner. 

New students will begin their training in the Foundations Class. Foundations Class format will be slow, smooth, technical, and repetitive allowing students to progress at their own pace. Once beginners are solid on their foundation techniques, they will be allowed to attend Beginner's Classes and begin to learn relevant defensive techniques with other training partners. In these Beginner's Classes students work hard, sweat, and will be pushed both mentally and physically. Students will also learn how to effectively use their bodies as a weapon to minimize the chances of injury. Krav Maga training is an intense workout where the student will be physically and mentally pushed and motivated by their commitment to their training and their innate will to survive.

Please bring a water bottle. You will need flip flops for the hallways and bathrooms! No socks, and no wrestling shoes inside the restrooms; flip flops only! If you do not have clean flip flops you will not be permitted to use the bathrooms. We recommend having your own hand sanitizer and disinfecting wipes/spray for your gear.

New students should expect to train in Foundations Classes until their combatives are solid and they've received Instructor approval to attend Beginner's Classes. Students can expect to train 2-3 times a week for 6-9 months before testing to their Yellow Belt. Students are also encouraged to attend belt workshops in preparation for their tests Once selected to test, students will successfully execute material in a testing format before being promoted. Students follow a belted system whereby new material and new techniques separate ranks from White through Black Belt.

Boxing/Sparring class is for students ranked Yellow Belt and above. Instructor approval required to participate.

We do! Please Email us for the details and pricing on the next Teens session.
