Love this place!!!! Talk about learning self defense and to protect yourself in real life situations and not in a cage!!! Before starting, I was skeptical with what I wanted to get into. I really wanted to learn jiu-jitsu but went and talked to the instructor/co-owner, Matt. He told me to try Krav Maga and see if I like it. I went to my first class and had no interest in even trying jiu-jitsu. Matt and Christina are excellent teachers and will individually help you throughout class to assist you with any questions or tweaks to get the most power out of your techniques and combatives. There is also a day to learn how to defend and disarm an assailant which is a weapons class and that is awesome and fun to learn!!! So if there is anything to take from this, is if you would like to learn self defense to where you question what to do in any real life, dangerous situations or encounters, I suggest to give Hwangs Martial Arts at least a chance. I am so thankful I did

Im VERY pleased with Hwangs martial arts school , my son is now a freshmen in high school and started classes @ the beginning of his middle school year. I can attest the positive difference martial arts has made on him; responsible, focused, confident & aware of his surroundings...Master Kristina is a positive role model & very approachable. I would definitely recommend the school!

Highly recommend! Great personable instructors that truly care about your progress and enjoyment. You learn practical useable skills from the first class, in a high energy but low pressure class while having a fun, exhausting workout. Best martial arts studio I’ve ever experienced!

I train Krav Maga here and the classes are fun, informative, and quite the workout! I love how challenging the classes are and how they take me out of my comfort zone. I feel much more confident now that I can protect my family and myself in a scenario where I would have to use self defense. Kristina and Matt are great! If you want to get into better shape, form the proper techniques, and learn a very valuable skill then I HIGHLY suggest you give a class a try - it could save your life!

Matt and Kristina are phenomenal! I love the classes here and they’re so much fun. The atmosphere is welcoming and accepting but also pushes you keep having self improvement. It’s definitely been a journey and I’ve been able to challenge myself during training. I can’t imagine training anywhere else.

Outstanding place to learn and feel comfortable. They truly care about the person/student individually and put every ounce into teaching. Highly recommend.

THIS is THE place for Krav Maga. None better. They take it seriously and will push you out of your comfort zone. Yet they scale it depending on your ability and physical level. If you want the correct training, in a safe and enjoyable environment, and be pushed to achieve new levels of endurance and capability, then this is the place.

Great studio! Joined the Krav Maga team about two years ago and have discovered a new passion. Not only has it increased confidence but the nature of the work has help me shed 20 pounds. Most people have no clue the amazing feeling of walking down any street in the country and feeling like you can handle any situation thrown at you. You won’t be Superman but you’ll be better off that 95% of the world. Not to mention that it is just a cool underworld to be a part of and share with others. They’ve made me awesome. I mean I was awesome already (at cooking) but they’ve made me awesome at Krav Maga! Thanks Matt and Kristina.

Matt and Kristina are great instructors. I have been training at the club for awhile now and love the energy and the group dynamic

My daughter (7 yr old) recently joined Hwangs and she is completely entrenched the classes. She finds this far more interesting than her any of her other activities such as soccer, dance, gymnastics, horse riding and we believe it is attributed to the instructors. They are very knowledgeable, friendly and outgoing. They provide one-on-one instructions when necessary and really take the time to make it an enjoyable experience for all.

My husband and I tried out the free introduction class a little over a year ago. We had so much fun and Matt and Kristina were so welcoming and knowledgeable we signed up that night and havent looked back. Weve been attending Krav Maga classes for over a year now and LOVE it!! If you have ever thought about trying Krav or taking some self defense classes to learn something new, gain self confidence and be able to protect yourself, especially as a woman, this is your spot!! Couldnt ask for better instructors or community!! Check it out TODAY!!!

An excellent establishment, with expert instructors who genuinely care about the growth and well-being of their students. With each class, I learn something new and further develop my skills. Self-defense is vital, and in the Krav classes they teach, you learn intuitive, powerful moves that leave you feeling more confident and capable every day. Kristina and Matt are incredible instructors who take the time to make sure you fully understand the moves, and the practical applications of each move in the real world. The classes are interactive, challenging and lots of fun. Ive learned so much since Ive joined, and cant wait for my next class!

Hwangs martial arts is a true family environment. There are literally students that have been with Kristina, the founding instructor, for over a dozen years. I have been going there for over a year and really enjoy the knowledge of all the instructors, their intelligent approach to martial arts, and the type of people the place attracts. This place is great and has a great mix of young kids, young adults, older adults, mixed genders and everything in between.

Im planning to enroll at this club that is why Im looking at the reviews right now. and it seems that they do offer a quality training. see you next week guys make sure to be there at your place.

My granddaughter is thriving with ms hwang and we are thrilled that she incorporates the self defense. As a teenage girl in this day and age she will be better prepared to defend herself and is gaining confidence with every class. She has her spar with adult men and women as well so that she has a more realistic idea of a full size threat.

Amazing atmosphere, excellent teaching, great workouts and practical self defense exercises. Both the students and the instructors are friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend signing up. Its worth every penny - and then some.

At first i was intimidated because i have never been in any martial arts/fighting style class. Its been awesome! All teachers and students provide a great atmosphere for learning. I would highly recommend this to anyone that looking to get fit and learn how to defend themselves :)

Have been attending the Krav class for about 3 months now and really enjoy it. Matt and Kristina are Great instructors, they make it easy to catch on quick. I would definitely recommend this class for anybody looking to learn self defense and wants to push themselves.

Professional, nice friendly and 5 stars all day long and then some

Awesome instructor and very interactive who is firm yet with a great sense of humor. A strong female instructor is a great role model for my daughter and she is advancing steadily and being recognized for her abilities.

Hwangs Martial Arts is the best martial arts studio I’ve ever experienced. My daughter and I have been studying Krav Maga for the last 7 months with Christina and Matt and it’s been an amazing experience. They are incredible teachers and really devoted to making sure all of the students are learning and understanding of the maneuvers. The studio is incredibly welcoming and it’s a great place to study martial arts.

Both of my children attend this Martial Arts school. I am very please and happy with the school owner and instructor Kristina Hwang. Most of all I am very satisfied with her teaching my 15 years old autistic son. She teaches him routines in Martial Arts and self defense, that I never thought possible. At first, I was very skeptical about the whole idea when he wanted to join with his sister. For years, I was not able to find a school and teacher that wanted to put his disability on the side. But Master Kristina Hwang did not see his autism as a barrier, she was honest with me about her class and routine, and that she would give it a try. Because of her patience and fearless attitude. I have a more discipline, social, autistic son. I see my son doing things that I never thought possible. His self confidence is amazing. Therefore, I recommend this school to any parent who wants to see their children self esteem and discipline improve in school and at home.

As a newbie to martial arts, I was a bit nervous going into my first class at Hwangs Martial Arts. However, all my nerves were quickly subsided in the first few minutes of my first class. Not only does Master Hwang have an incredible school of students, but every student in the school makes you feel welcomed and at ease through words of encouragement and inspiration.Another wonderful aspect of Master Hwangs school is the eclectic mix of students - from young adults, teenagers, college students and professionals - and the camaraderie between all students is really very special.Master Hwang is an amazing, patient and talented teacher and has helped me to find a new mental and athletic passion in martial arts that I never would have previously considered. HIGHLY recommend!

Kristina provided private Krav Maga lessons for me and my 22 year old daughter before she moved to another state to start her career. Ill start by saying we simply could not have found a better place or a better instructor to teach us self defense. Kristina is an expert in her field. As an instructor, she is very patient and encouraging, and was always sure we knew each self-defense move well enough for it to be instinctive to us before she moved to teach the next one. In addition, she regularly cited national crime statistics with us to make us aware of the types of personal threats that are most common, and more importantly, taught us how to act to avoid them or survive them if put in those situations. Thanks to Kristina, both my daughter and I are much more aware and will be much better prepared if we are ever put into a situation where our lives our threatened or endangered.

I took the most amazing intro class today. I feel empowered and I feel capable of defending myself...after 1 class!!! Amazing teachers!

Both of my kids have been attending Hwangs Martial Arts for over 3 years and our experience has been amazing. Mrs Hwangs is great with the kids and at the same time discipline, she strikes a great balance which is extremely important in Martial Arts.

Im obsessed! Kristina and Matt know how to kick your ass and encourage you at the same time. I always leave feeling like I really learned something, which is the mark of good teachers. Not only does the Krav class teach you how to defend yourself, its also a really great physical outlet and workout. If I could train every day, I would.

Ms Hwang is an amazing instructor. She is fantastic with the kids and really teaches them to become passionate about their discipline while having fun at the same time.

Very friendly and very welcoming. The Krav Maga classes are tough and really teach you useful skills. I cant think of a better place to train than here!

An awesome place where my son is learning Taekwondo. Master Hwang and her other instructors are awesome in encouraging my son to reach his full potential in this martial arts form. Weve seen his self confidence sky rocket in all areas....especially in his studies! As he reaches different levels and learns new techniques, we are confident that he will be able to use this knowledge to defend himself against bullies if needed.... he has a blast learning with his peers too! Not only is he having fun while training...the instructors are able to give one on one instruction to each child since classes are set up to be smaller in size and more personable... so every student gets extra help with a technique when needed...this is what we love about the school....my son is comfortable in asking questions and not intimidated at all in doing so. I am confident that he will be able to defend himself if he ever needs to in the future. Thanks Master Hwang! You are the best!

A very well kept place that has taught me alot. I would recommend this place to anybody. I am looking forward to learning alot more from them.

Take Kwon do, jiu jitsu, krav maga, mixed martial arts, adults, children and teens.

I enrolled in the Krav Maga class as a self defense tool with no previous experience and now have the confidence to defend myself after only a few months. The instructors are very personable and involved with the students and ensure that everybody is receiving adequate attention to perform with proper technique etc. The endurance aspect of the class can be a challenge if going 100% is for you, but you will also find yourself in great shape. There is a fair range of skill levels in the class and I have learned some great techniques and tricks from a few veterans as well.This class has brought me tremendous value and I look forward to every Tuesday and Thursday evenings.

A great school with a exceptional instructors. Master Kristina Hwang is fantastic with children, teens and adults. You train in an environment that is safe and challenging with the opportunity to push yourself beyond your comfort zone. Whether you want to learn basic self defense, earn a black belt in Tae Kwon Do or master Krav Maga, their professional staff is here to assist you in achieving your goal.

My son LOVES Hwangs Martial Arts. The teachers and Tae Kwon Do curriculum have given him confidence he didnt have before. Highly recommend!!!

Awesome Krav Maga classes, goes over not only training moves but also mindset!

I originally started training Krav Maga here as a way to get some variety to my cardio routine, as i needed a break from the boring elliptical machine sessions in the gym. I certainly got it and soon realized that my cardio wasnt nearly at the level that i thought it was!Not only did this class challenge me to progress cardio wise, it is a really great all over body workout. I had a great post exercise soreness in muscles i didnt know existed after my first few classes. I have also learned a lot of great self defense skills that make me feel more confident that I will be ok if i get into a sticky situation.Kristina and Matt are both patient, friendly instructors, and everyone i have met in the class have also been great people. This is a great welcoming environment and there are no attitudes, intimidating characters or egos here. I was a bit nervous when i was first starting out as I didnt know ANYTHING about fighting/self defense, but that worry was quickly dispelled when i realized what the environment was like.The classes are a mix of male and female, younger and older, so dont think that you wouldnt fit in! I highly recommend the Krav Maga classes here to both beginners and more advanced students of any age or gender.

The instructors are great and everyone is welcoming when I come to new student I recommend the Krav Maga classes

Ive been taking Krav with Kristina and Matt for the past 6 months and I cant imagine a better place to learn. Its a trek from Boynton Beach twice a week, but well worth the gas and tolls IMHO. Although I still have a long way to go, even after only 6 months, I am feeling so much more confident in my ability to protect myself and my family should the need ever arise, and thats what Krav at Hwangs is all about. Im looking forward to getting my wife into the Krav class and getting my two boys into tae kwan do classes when they are a little older. Just sign up already!

Our twelve year old son has been training in the martial arts since the age of two and has been in the instruction of several instructors and schools over that last ten years. He has accomplished significant milestones in his martial arts training . He began training in TKD with Master Hwang in 2012. Our first impressions of Master Hwang and her school were excellent and our feelings have been confirmed ever since. Master Hwang is a passionate accomplished martial art instructor who truly cares about her students; this is obviously apparent to those who watch just a couple classes. We are so happy to have found her school and would recommend it to anyone looking to begin or advance their martial arts education.

I began training with Ms. Hwang several years ago at another school. Last year I enrolled my two nephews in her classes, and became involved myself in July. The boys are advancing under her strong leadership, and I am really enjoying myself! Her proximity to our homes is a great factor, and her spirit of enthusiasm is contagious. I recommend her highly, for Taekwondo, or Krav Maga.

After relocating to Palm Beach County a in 2010, I enrolled my daughter into several activities including horseback riding and tennis lessons. About a year ago, at age 14, she expressed interest in self-defense. Since I had martial arts training in my youth, I knew the quality of teaching varies greatly. Geographically, the search for the right school included Stuart down to Boca Raton. Qualities sought was a school that instilled confidence, discipline, respect and one that taught patience, understanding and tolerance of others...the core philosophy of martial arts. I spoke to approximately 10 schools and the choice became crystal clear...Hwangs Martial Arts. The schools owner, Kristina Hwang spent 15-20 minutes on the phone detailing her philosophy of martial arts which mirrored exactly what we were looking for. The fact that her father, Grandmaster Jack Hwang was a 9th Degree Black Belt and is considered one of the founders of Tae Kwon Do in the US further solidified my decision. Were blessed to have such a talented instructor as Ms. Hwang in Palm Beach County. I dont hesitate to refer anyone interested in learning martial arts to her school.

The Krav Maga program is the best in the Palm Beach area.

Amazingly dedicated, community and family oriented, professional team.

Top notch instruction and great instructors!
