REACT is a great studio to learn open-handed skills that can be life-saving. While suffering as if youre in the moment and need to REACT. Every time I attend class the instruction is clearly explained with follow up on what to expect. Michael and his staff are amazing. I love the studio and will come back again!

This place is an amazing studio. even through all the craziness of 2020 they still made accommodations to stay open. I enjoy class every time I go and learn or hone a skill. MUSCLE MEMORY! Michael and his staff are amazing. I love the studio and will come back again!

I’ve been going to “typical” gyms/weight rooms my whole life but decided to give React Defense a try last year as a way to switch up my workout and also for a mental escape from COVID. This place is phenomenal for learning real life self defense with well trained instructors but beyond that it’s the most fun I’ve ever had working out and has helped me get into better shape than I have been at other gyms where it’s easy to slack off. It’s also a great place to get to meet new people that you’re training with and they offer numerous different types of classes and constantly mix things up so it never gets boring. With all of the pandemic related frustrations, it’s an amazing and productive stress reliever, especially after having a long day at work. I’ve recommended this place to numerous friends of mine and will continue to do so

Michael and his staff are amazing. I love the studio and will come back again! I have made new friends and learned some great skills while getting fit. Keep doing what youre doing guys!

This place is awesome! Im having a blast and learning a ton. Michael and the instructors are very knowledgeable and helpful walking around to ensure you are doing the technique correctly. Wish I had started this years ago!

In this climate of unrest and just plain craziness. I look to Michael and his staff for safe and precise instruction. I feel more confident having a good base of skills I have learned from Michael and his staff. Safety is tantamount. They always put safety first. I love the studio and will come back again!

I love this place! I signed up 5 months ago and I go every opportunity I get. The staff are friendly and professional. I would recommend this place to anyone.

I am a 12 year law enforcement vet and this is by far and away the best training I have ever attended. Michael and his staff are true professionals, and I know that attending this training will allow me to overcome any thing I may encounter during my shift in order to make it home to my wife and kids.

Michael is awesome and the classes are truly friendly for all skill levels!!! Im learning new skills and also feel myself getting stronger. I get excited to go to class, and regret days I dont go. I can say confidently that great care is taken towards us students, because student safety is the top priority. The instructors will go around and make sure to provide friendly corrections as needed when youre running drills so you can develop proper form.The only thing I wish this location had is Friday evening hours, but it did give me a chance to check out the Phoenix location, and theyre awesome too!RANT AHEADThe only issue Ive had is that during one class (so far) I overheard constant chatter while instructors were giving demonstrations (this pair was also treating drills like they were hanging out at Starbucks. Theres a time and a place for that, and TB aint it). To be clear, THIS IS NOT AN ISSUE WITH THE SCHOOL ITSELF, this is an issue with other students behavior. I found this disruption extremely rude and disrespectful to the instructors and the other students since were there to learn (and I have ADHD, so I already have a tough time focusing without distractions like that). We all pay our dues and that hour is for learning.

Best of the best. Been attending for over a year and all the instructors are motivating, friendly, and amazing teachers. All classes are tough, but at your current level. There is no guilt about modifying or not being good enough. They push you to your personal limit and I have grown so much with them over the last year. The students are like family, too. It is a great community.They have also been putting out workout videos while temporarily closed, which shows how much they care about their students. I miss them all and cant wait to train with them again soon!

This place is absolutely amazing, always been a thrill seeker and React Defense Chandler definately provides me with the adrenaline to get through my week. Only trained here for three months, but all the instructors are super dope and know what they are doing. Will sign up for another year.

I highly recommend Krav Maga of Chandler! Michael, Josh and Mel are patient, supportive and skilled teachers and they always keep class a chill, safe learning environment. It doesnt matter what your skill level or strength is, they will teach you how to protect yourself. In only a month, I have gained strength, better posture and a sense of confidence that no fancy gym membership could hold a candle to. Every woman should take these classes, even kids (they have a youth class as well).In response to another comment about buying gear...I didnt find that. For the Krav classes, there are no outfits, uniforms or mandatory gear. They recommend your own gloves, because you get sweaty. You will want your own gloves (and you dont need to buy them there). There is a full fight class that requires a lot of gear and if you choose to do that class, you will want your own head gear, mouthpiece, etc. I dont do that class and so havent needed to buy the gear. Overall, I find the place really down-to-earth, not pretentious and a place to feel comfortable to learn to kick butt!

Went in for the free trial class after my cousin raved about the training even though I had none, zero, no previous self-defense training. I loved the first class, but signed up for one month just in case I wasnt committed. There was no pressure from anyone there. I loved the first month and signed up for a year that flew by, and I just signed up for my second year. The instructors are amazing and teach the techniques step by step. I love the training, and the instructors and students are great, and everyone is encouraging and nice.

I love this facility and cant wait to go back regularly. The staff are fantastic and I have nothing but good things to say.

Been going for about 3 months now. I hadnt done any serious physical activity or training for about four years prior, and was (am) seriously out of shape. That said, whether youre a top athlete or recovering couch potato (and there certainly is such a spectrum of students here, although less of the latter), the instructors are there to accommodate your ability and facilitate your training and growth to the limits of your capability - never to intimidate or shame. They are the right mix of get-on-your-butt / encouraging / supporting. Their professionalism and commitment to safety become quickly apparent to the new student. I can say the same of virtually all the other people Ive been training with, resulting in a sense of camaraderie among the male and female students in a positive, comfortable environment.Classes are challenging and serious ... yet they are fun! I look FORWARD to class, rather than dreading it. The classes are varied, dynamic, and engaging.The facility is modern, very clean and organized, and is comfortable to be in.There is no up-sale pressure. Obviously they want you to come back, but they tell you up front if you didnt like what you saw today (in your trial class) - youre not gonna like the program. Want to sign a contract - go ahead. Dont wanna? Then dont. Due to external factors, I have remained month-to-month, and there has never been one iota of pressure on me to sign a larger commitment, other than the opportunity is there if I decide I want it in the future to save a little in tuition. I sat in on a few other Krav places in the area when researching the right program for me - and the places pressure to sign large commitments was really intense...not the case here at all. Youll have to buy a little gear for the classes, but when I priced the gear, it was completely inline with what sport shops and online places are selling it for. They are not trying to get rich off the little bit of gear they sell -- they are offering it there for convenience and so that they can make sure you get the right gear for your body and your goalsLastly, I found TBs monthly tuition to be considerably lower than some other offerings in the area, and the fact that they do not have a weekly cap on the amount of sessions you can attend and dont require you to pay to add on other courses (e.g. if you want to add Fight sessions to the straight Krav sessions, you do not have to pay additional tuition) is something that some other programs in the area cannot say.So...to state the obvious....Im very pleased to have found this training program!!

Very disappointed in my vist to this studio. If you train at another school or taught there they dont want you.

Ive been going here for years, instructors are knowledgeable and friendly. They can accommodate all skills levels and have segregated classes for those who are just starting out. I will say that the beginner levels are repetitive after about six months but thats whats the advance classes are for.

Been training here for a couple weeks now and the one thing that sticks out the most is the generosity of the staff. From the day I walked in they were nothing but attentive and understanding all the while giving enough push to have a productive work out. I highly recommend anyone intrested in Krav or just intrested in getting in better shape to try this place out.

I went to go try out of class for the first time and we were talking about fitness and I mentioned that I was a CrossFit trainer and because of that they wouldnt even let me try a class because they were afraid that I was going to steal their methods and use them for my own . And that was the end. do yourself a favor and stay away from this stupid place

I love training here the classes are difficult but necessary for preparing for the unforeseen
