Fantastic experience: I am so grateful to this gym and all the people I’ve met here! Each and every one of the trainers truly care and push you to become your best self in training, wanting to see you improve as much you do. I came here with 0 experience or knowledge of what I was getting myself into, and left learning skills I know will help protect me wherever I go! If you’re reading this, don’t question it anymore and GO TO THIS GYM!! THANK YOU BRKRAVMAGA FOR BEING A FRIENDLY TEAM OF BADASSES!!!!

Fantastic experience: Wonderful instructors, welcoming and safe environment, great students. The atmosphere can't help but get you excited to begin your classes. Loud music as the instructors encourage you to keep going even when you're dog tired. Realistic application and pressure testing during Krav classes. We go over wrestling, kickboxing, boxing, ground fighting and weapons fighting and apply them to self defense situations. Each class you'll end up wanting to give your all and tired and exhausted but ready for more.

Fantastic experience: If you're looking to get in shape and defend yourself the right way, this is the place to go. They have bag classes, personal training, and other options to jump into.

Fantastic experience: Chris: Thank you for these amazing workouts to accomplish my weight loss goals and motivating me to stay on track. You are an amazing person

Fantastic experience: Great place to do kickboxing as a workout. The trainers are awesome and really make you sweat.

Fantastic experience: Incredibly professional, helpful staff. Challenging, fun, refreshing workout. Attended the trial Kickboxing & Krav classes and already feel like I have more knowledge & skills.

Fantastic experience: I love instructor Nick.. Not only is the staff very welcoming but Nick is very encouraging and pushes you to keep going even when you want to stop. He even shows you how to modify some of the exercises if you can't quite keep up. This class has definitely helped with stress, depression and some of my newly discovered anxiety issues. Couldn't have found a better way to lose weight and gain my sanity.

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym overall--great staff, classes, and comradery! My husband and I were looking for a place that was not your typical gym--we wanted a place to work out and get back into shape, sure, but we also wanted, being newcomers to the Baton Rouge area, a place where we could meet people and feel welcomed and supported. BR Krav Maga delivers on all fronts, from fitness to community. Classes are challenging but still open to modification, if you need it, and there is plenty of class variety so you'll never get bored with your fitness routine and you'll have tons of opportunity to level up your ability. What's more, there are 2 locations so you can be sure you'll get your fill of your favorite classes all week long. I highly recommend BR Krav Maga to anyone looking to not only get in shape and stay in shape, but also to those wanting to learn how to defend themselves effectively while in the company of a supportive group of instructors and members.

Fantastic experience: Great Krav Maga program! they have multiple black belt instructors and on top of that the fitness instructors are also very good and have the best kickboxing classes in town.

Fantastic experience: I have been to many different types of Gyms in my over 20 years of martial arts experience. As a Coach at Baton Rouge Krav Maga & Kickboxing , I'm Impressed by the passion for Fitness & Self-Defense, the owner's, coaches & staff have for there clients. Really talented people giving there best 100% of the time.

Fantastic experience: This place is my #1 choice for a gym. It's in a great location, and the staff are awesome. I absolutely love their kickboxing classes. The instructors offer easy individual advice to help you fine tune your technique, and, even more importantly, they encourage you to push yourself. I couldn't ask for a better gym.

Fantastic experience: Very rounded skills base and solid resumes of the instructors helps with teaching a students of various skill levels . Always supportive of everyone no matter where they are on the training path . Highly recommend BR Krav Maga to everyone thinking about self defense or fun exercise classes

Fantastic experience: *THIS LOCATION HAS MOVED* The current address is 4469 Perkins Road Suite A2, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70808 This is a great place for fun workouts with friendly and enthusiastic staff and instructors. I have enjoyed incorporating kickboxing into my fitness routine and recommend kickboxing to anyone looking for something beyond a typical gym setting to mix into their fitness. My only complaint is the class schedule is a little limited. It is very nice that the kickboxing class times aren't regimented, and you can come jump in whenever you can get there.

Fantastic experience: This AWESOME combination of staff and trainers not only guided me to achieve my goal to lose 25 pounds in six weeks, they helped me EXCEED my goal by 4 pounds with a loss of 7% body fat! I cannot thank everyone enough! A special shout out to Kyle and Steffani for all the encouragement!!!

Fantastic experience: Loved every workout, very happy with my results. Thanks guys

Fantastic experience: I feel a bit sorry for all the other fitness gyms in this area. This place and their team take fitness training to an incomparable level. He has the plan, the system, the ability, the experience, and THE PASSION to help you achieve your goals. No matter what stage of fitness, or lack of, you are in, this place has your back. They can train you without causing injury yet challenge you to continually reach new levels of fitness. If fitness, weight-loss, and a healthy life-style are your goals, GET ENROLLED NOW…your only regret will be not doing it sooner.

Fantastic experience: I just completed the 6-week Fitness Challenge, and was able to shed 26lbs!!! Everything was absolutely awesome throughout the entire experience. The diet was specifically geared toward my caloric needs, and was filled with foods that I LOVE to eat. The workouts are intense, but the coaches motivate and push you to give your all while coaching perfect form to prevent any injury. The staff are always approachable and encouraging, and make themselves available at all times to answer questions and fix issues. Most importantly though are your peers. Through the use of a Facebook community, we are able to motivate each other while going through the challenge to ensure success and accountability. I would recommend BR Krav to anybody that is willing and ready to make positive and lasting changes in their life!!!

Fantastic experience: Awesome! I can get a killer workout in 30 minutes. The staff is like a 2nd family! They care about my goals and my overall health. I couldn't make this transformation without them!

Fantastic experience: The best

Fantastic experience: I love this place, just finished my 6 week challenge, I feel I am totally changed I weight 5 lb less and 6.2 percent body fat less, belly became flat than before, I feel great, and more confident. The staff there are very nice, trainers are very motivated and supportive,! This place is amazing! Highly recommend!!!

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a place to get an amazing, intense workout with a super friendly environment, this is definitely the place for you.

Fantastic experience: "Everything hurts and I'm dying ". But in the best way ❤️ Knowledgeable, friendly instructors, strong sense of community, and clean updated facility. 10/10 would sweat again.

Fantastic experience: I went in because I kept seeing their ads. I had not worked out consistently in a couple of years. I was given a free 3 day trial and the workout was intense. I signed up. What happened 6 weeks later was a 31 lb weight loss. I beat the challenge by 6 lbs. The team supported me online, text, and in person on my journey. I am now going to join up as a member and keep shedding the lbs. I am also going to look into the beginning Krav classes as well. So i will get more bang for my buck, weight loss and self-defense.

Fantastic experience: I've been working out here for almost 6 weeks now and it's been great! The workouts are really intense though and in 30 minute intervals. You can jump in at any time, just set the timer and go! I've already met my fitness goals and I still got a week left!

Fantastic experience: My experience with Baton Rouge Krav Maga has been nothing but great. The staff will take the time to explain every part of the process, whether that is weight loss or muscle building. I was able to put on 11 pounds of muscle in 6 weeks, and the HIIT style workouts were the reason I stayed lean during those weeks. My body fat percentage dropped during the process, and their unique diet with training was the main reason I was able to both put on muscle and lose fat! Do the challenge, join the program, talk to the staff... do whatever it takes to get yourself into those doors because this program is something you don't want to miss! When you are 25 pounds leaner, or 10-15 pounds more muscular, you'll be thanking every staff member for all they do to keep you encouraged and coming in for class.

Negative experience: Walked into this gym on Saturday, employee on phone with feet propped up and didn't acknowledge me. Walked in a little further and found a guy carrying some water to the front. I said, " Hi, do you have a price sheet?" He glared and said NO. I said, ok and went to walk out. He then tried to say he could sit with me to talk. LEARN HOW TO TALK TO PEOPLE! I will never go back in that place. I had to give 1 star, but they deserve none

Fantastic experience: If you are ready to make a healthy lifestyle change, you have come to the right place! I just finished the 6 Week Challenge and lost 17 lbs and over 7% body fat. I have never had support and results like this before, and that support has been a huge factor in my results. The eating plan has been simple for me to follow, has lots of choices, and has proven to me that eating this way does, in fact, lessen my cravings for sugar and simple carbs. I love that when I was frustrated, Steffani listened and said, "Why don't you try this?" I tried it, and it worked!! To say you are in good hands is understating the staff's commitment. They plan great workouts, always have a smile and word of encouragement, and Steffani and Kyle's rapport always makes me laugh. I saw the ad for the challenge right when I needed it, and I am so happy I committed to it. I started working again during the challenge, and I was easily able to incorporate the eating plan into my days. I have had a little more difficulty fitting in my workouts, but getting back into kickboxing has reminded me how much I love to move. I plan to continue the eating plan even after I reach my goal weight. I feel healthy, I have more energy, and I never want that to stop. Thank you, BR Krav Maga @ Highland Road!!

Fantastic experience: Great place to work out, professional staff and excellent facility, I would highly recommend anyone interested in self defense to try this place.

Fantastic experience: I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to work out and experience an AWESOME kick boxing class at BR Krav Maga and Fitness on Highland Road. The instructors made it possible for me to lose weight and more than 6% body fat. I can attest to this fitness center giving GREAT results!

Fantastic experience: This place is awesome! The staff and instructors are all super friendly and they can answer any questions you have about their workouts or meal prepping. You can get a great workout as well as learning some self defense moves. I highly recommend this place, not only for getting in shape, but also for learning how to protect yourself and your family. The world we are living in today is a little crazy and I think everyone could benefit from checking these guys and gals out.

Fantastic experience: I stumbled across BR Krav Maga when I was looking for a change and joined as part of a 6 week Challenge in the hopes of losing weight. I exceeded the set goal by losing 28 pounds and 3.2% body fat, however, as much work as I put into it, I couldn’t have done it without the assistance and support of the amazing staff. It is evident that everyone there loves what they do and truly care about helping others. They create a welcoming atmosphere that is genuine and it truly creates a sense of family. Steffani and Kyle fully listened to my goals, any issues I was having, and were quick to respond to questions and make changes to my meal plan to ensure that I met my goals. Their energy definitely helped on days that I was feeling discouraged. The meal plan offered variety that made it easy to stick to and changed my eating habits long term. Then came the workouts… I had my doubts about my abilities at first as I am uncoordinated at best. I loved the jump in at any point, give it your best shot, doesn’t matter your fitness level approach. All the trainers were great about correcting form, repeating combinations, and motivating in a positive way. The workouts themselves were grueling but fun. I loved that each class was different and that each trainer brought a different feel and challenge to the class. Maurice challenged me with the endless combinations but kept me calm even when frustrated, while Renee challenged me with accuracy, power, and balance. Nick’s high energy made me push to see how long I could last! From all of them, I have learned more about myself and gained strength, endurance, and a love of kickboxing…turns out I’m more coordinated than I thought too. I highly recommend BR Krav Maga to anyone looking to lose weight, learn about kickboxing, or just looking for a fun yet challenging workout.

Fantastic experience: This place is by far my favorite of all time. The instructors know exactly what they're teaching, the front desk and management are always excited and happy to see you, and there's always such AWESOME music playing! They taught me to get up off my butt and WORK; but they also make me feel like I can be confident in my skin and confident in my abilities to protect myself and my family. They're constantly changing things to keep it fresh and new so you don't get stagnant and bored, with new meal plans, upgraded techniques, and so much more! Unlike other gyms I've been to where the price is cheap but the quality is horrible, BRKM is ABSOLUTELY worth the price! Frankly, I'm surprised I don't pay more for the place! I wish I could give more than 5 stars because this place is such a godsend.

Fantastic experience: As I sit and reflect on these last 6 weeks in the Krav Maga 6 week challenge, I can’t help but think of everything I accomplished. This program taught me so much about myself and the fact that I can push myself outside my comfort zone and reach my goal. This wasn’t just a 6 week challenge for me but a healthy lifestyle change that steered me in the direction I needed to be. I could not have been successful without the knowledgeable coaches and instructors. They gave me the confidence and push I needed to lose weight and get fit. They are very dedicated to seeing you succeed and be the best you can be and for that I am forever grateful. I have a very busy life. I am a mom of three and have a full time 8-5 job as a nurse so finding time for a workout was extremely difficult. The classes were offered at different times and I could walk in to class at any time as long as I completed my 30 minute workout. This made it very convenient for me to get my workout in and also spend time with my family. The workouts were never boring and always kept me interested. My kids enjoyed the meals that I prepared and took interests in eating healthy. It has been a lifestyle change for my entire family. The meal plan was simple and kept me full. I never felt like I wasn’t getting enough food. This program has done for much for my well being and mood (just ask my husband haha). I wake up everyday feeling great and don’t feel sluggish at the end of the day. If you are looking for a great program to help you jumpstart your weight loss and healthy lifestyle this is the program for you. Since I’ve had such a wonderful and fulfilling experience I signed up for a membership so I can continue on my “get fit, weight loss” journey.

Fantastic experience: Great place to get fit and learn self defense. The instructors are dedicated to training you with the most effective methods. This is not your typical dojo style fighting method so be ready to put the work into it!

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend to anyone looking to get in shape, learn real life self defense, meet some great people, or all the above. Instructors are highly knowledgeable and continually expanding their knowledge to teach to the members. The staff behind the desks will keep you motivated, informed on schedules and diet plans, and check your progress weekly. Awesome facility.

Fantastic experience: This is the best self defense class you could take. I am extremely impressed! It is a very professional facility. The instructors are extremely informative and helpful.

Fantastic experience: I had a great time. The staff was helpful, they go through the exercise techniques step by step for the kickboxing. Classes are fast paced & full if intensity.

Fantastic experience: I'm 40 years old and this place was a God send. BR Krav Maga is amazing, from both a fitness standpoint and self defense. The instructors care about the students and their safety. They make what seem like the most difficult techniques easy for the novice students. It's great stress relief, and you have a lot of fun doing it. I started out with one of their 6 week challenges, and was hooked. I've not only lost 30 pounds since starting 5 months ago, but I've toned up a lot, which at my age is really difficult. I highly recommend checking them to anyone trying get fit, or gain a sense safety.
