I have been attending classes for about 6 months and I could write a 500 page essay about how great this place is. I was extremely anxious before attending my first class but the instructors take extra care with new students to really make sure you are comfortable and give extra attention to make sure you understand what you are doing. All the instructors are so caring and genuinely want to help you learn these skills to protect yourself. They are trauma informed and take precautions to make sure you feel safe. The instructors are also great at explaining why we are working on the moves we are

I had a couple different situations where someone I didn’t know had threatened me with violence. (Once at work, once at a bar)
For me I took it as a sign that I need to learn self defense, I use to do taekwondoe however I didn’t feel it had much real world practicality for me
Krav M was a no brainer for me however I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to find a good instructor and school.
On the contrary I found Shaan Saar and Gabriel, Shaan Saar school is a very comfortable place to learn a new skill with all the other students being very supportive and kind and Gabriel is a self defense expert

From when I started to now I have changed SO MUCH. I cannot believe how happy EVERYTHING about this group makes me! They are trauma informed, highly intentional in their teaching and notice (and KINDLY critique) unbelievable amounts of nuance in EACH individual… which allows you to constantly make your improvements tangible. ❤️🔥 you guys are STUCK with me 👊

This is a great investment for your mind, body and future. I started taking these classes about 6 months ago and cannot be more pleased with the results so far. . I went into class very unsure and timid. I was made to feel secure by the instructors and actually also by other students because the instructors have built a supportive culture in the classroom that maintains patience, kindness, compassion and encouragement. We get lessons on so many aspects of self protection.
I have grown as a person and, through coaching and correction I have gotten better at defending myself- fighting. This class

I had a membership for about a year and look forward to rejoiningwhen I can. They
really care about their members and take their time answering any questions. I liked learning practical self defense in a way that I can use it in real life and even life skills that help me navigate day to day situations.

I joined Shaan Saar for to learn how to better defend myself and my family if ever needed. Not only did I drastically improve my ability to physically defend myself and my family, but I also learned how to be aware of my surroundings and what to look for in potential threats.
I feel much better calmer and more confident while with my family, knowing that I'll be able to identify threats and keep us safe. An added benefit is the fun that I've had in the classes.
I'm very happy I made the decision to join and learn from Gabriel.

My family, including two teenagers, attended KM classes for four months, and if we hadn’t moved out of country we would have continued taking them for several reasons. We all really enjoyed the instructor, Gabriel Mora. He is personable, patient, and knows what he teaches. Not only did he teach us techniques that were practical and helped us build confidence in our ability to defend ourselves in threatening situations, but we learned more about ourselves and how we react in those given situations. Probably the most important reason we appreciated the class was that it taught me and my teenager

I was introduced to Krav Maga in another state but was intimated by the hard hitting, in shape people i saw inYouTube videos. I finally decided to try it out. Gabriel and Renee made me feel completely comfortable and have been amazing encouragements. I am slowly getting more in shape and feeling more confident and it's all because of the inclusive and support environment created. The women's self defense classes are also amazing! If you want to learn Krav Maga this is the place for you!

I contacted Renee about having her shoot a video of my newly launched self-defense product. We agreed I would meet her and Gabriel at their studio in Dr. Phillips. In that initial meeting I met Gabriel, but Renee phoned in for our meeting. In hindsight I should have seen this as a red flag. We had a loose agreement on price and they were supposedly doing another video shoot later that week. They were going to shoot footage using my self-defense product at the end of their scheduled shoot. I gave them two samples of my product for the shoot. The shoot never happened. Then they were going
