Came into Jason's class for a free trial day and knew this was the instructor I wanted training me. Cares about PROPERLY teaching his students and has had the training to do so. Highly recommend.

I have been training with Jason for the better part of a year. Over the course of the past year, I've built a strong foundation not only with respect to attacks in self-defense scenarios, but I've also learned situational awareness and deescalation techniques. Jason is a phenomenal teacher that cares about his students and how they interact with the world around him. I highly recommend him and his classes.

After researching multiple disciplines and training facilities, I recently joined Krav Maga South Tampa and couldn’t have made a better choice. Jason is an extremely knowledgeable instructor, who actively participates in training. Instruction focuses on life-saving techniques, not sport, that are drilled repeatedly. Training sessions make great use of time. Fellow students are welcoming and helpful. And, the facility is top-notch and well maintained. If you’re looking for no-nonsense, self-defense (not sport) training in the Tampa Bay area, do yourself a favor and train with Krav Maga South Tampa.

From beginners to champions, this is easily one of the best martial arts classes anyone can be apart of. This is no franchise gimmick style Krav Maga, this is the real deal Gidon system Krav Maga . Jason is infinitely informative and takes the time to walk you through the basics as well as fine tune Advanced skill. Every class I walk out a better fighter. Whether you've never trained before or you're an expert, this is a class you're gonna want to check out.

Friendly environment, serious Krav Maga.

I started training with Jason almost three years ago. The classes are awesome. Jason gives one-on-one feedback and differentiates instruction based on level. I had ZERO fighting skills when I first walked in the studio, but now I move with more strength, awareness, and confidence. Highly recommend Israeli Krav Maga South Tampa, especially for women who want to gain street fighting skills!

An incredible class. Jason is a fantastic instructor that brings great passion and care for his students whilst at the same time effectively teaching Krav Maga. Every individual I've come across within the class has been great to work with, fun to meet and I highly highly highly recommend this class! Come on out!

When I moved to S. Tampa, I wanted to find a place to train. Fortunately, I found Israeli Krav Maga South Tampa. It's located in a space within the Bryan Glazer Family Jewish Community Center so you have access to their locker rooms, gym equipment, and indoor track on the days when we have class.

Jason teaches at a pace I can understand and follow. The other students in class are also awesome, as we all support each other before, during, and after training. The Krav Maga we learn has an emphasis on precise movement and combatives/defenses applicable to real world situations.

Overall, it's a very welcoming and comfortable training environment. Bring your motivation and give it a try!

This class is the real deal!

I had the opportunity to train for a 3-month period before professional obligations required me to relocate away from Tampa. Even within that relatively short period of time, I learned a lot.

Firstly, Jason is a superior instructor: he is personable, grounded, and highly skilled. It's clear that he lives and breathes Krav Maga based on the way that he demonstrates and discusses the techniques. Additionally, Jason's method of instruction strikes a balance between being challenging, but also being safe. I was pushed outside my comfort zone on occasion (which was a good thing), but I never worried about being injured.

Secondly, the training itself has practical value. You learn techniques (and thought processes) that can be applied to real-world situations. Although I still have much more to learn, I'm leaving more confident in my ability to defend myself than when I arrived.

Thirdly, expect to meet friendly and interesting people. Students of varying skill levels attend the classes. All of the more advanced students that I interacted with were approachable and provided helpful feedback.

For all of the reasons discussed above, I highly recommend the class!
