Hello, im in the Queens area of NY and wanted to know if anyone could recommend any classes in the area. I did a couple of searches and found a few in Manhattan,but thought maybe someone here might know of a Queens location. Thank you for any assistance.

Thank you for the links MJS.

Just to let you know the www.kravmagainc.com (http://www.kravmagainc.com) website might be up or down when you go to it. They are changing servers for their site. Either call them at 212-781-7918 or you can PM me if you have any questions. I was a student there about a year ago and have just recently come back. Let me know if I can help.

Definitely Krav Maga Inc. Probably the only professional Krav Maga organization in America. See Grubic's post above for details.

Any opinions on Sparnyc? Elizabeth Greenman and David Kahn are the instructors there.

I know there are a few instructors in NY that teach Commando Krav-Maga (CKM). You can check them out at http://www.commandokravmaga.com/ There is a difference between CKM and the regular Krav-Maga.

Progress & Evolve,

CKM level II Instructor

There is also an eight week Kapap course starting soon.

In response to LOKI's post about Krav Maga Inc. in NYC as "the only professional" KM group-- not at all true. In addition to the places in Westchester (Steve Sohn's place in Scarsdale is fantastic), there is also KMLI in Long Island--as professional a KM school as you will ever find. Krav Inc. in NYC operates out of a college space. They do not have a school of their own. Some of their classes are on a racket-ball court which is ridiculous for sound and air-flow. This isn't to say that they don't have some excellent instructors because they do. I received my training in Israel under Eyal Yanilov's teachers, who I consider to be the best in the world.
