Amazing people amazing skill set offered by the instructor and proven self defense method
Real results quickly. Gonçalo Esteves delivers outstanding instruction and fighting fitness based on decades of World class experience.
One class is enough to teach you critical self-defense and made me push myself to the limits in my personal life and career
Goncalo is a please to work with for young and old.I'm in the over 60 crowd and he nailed it each workout: )

I love going to class. I’ve learned so much and the people are great! I’m in my 3 week and I’m hooked ! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The program is amazing for both beginners and people getting into it again after having prior experience already. Goncalo can help in close to any way in terms of form correction to strength training and mobility, and he takes it incredibly seriously if you are willing to put in the effort.

The program is amazing for both beginners and people getting into it again after having prior experience already. Goncalo can help in close to any way in terms of form correction to strength training and mobility, and he takes it incredibly seriously if you are willing to put in the effort. It is most definetely the personification of what you get in you get out; so if you come in wanting to develop both your strength and form you will develop at incredibly strong and fast rates. Another part of the program I particularly enjoy is that it is an environment of intensity but kindness; and the actually instruction is incredibly intense, accurate, and kind. I think the program is the perfect place to go if you want to defend yourself practically while simultaneously developing your strength and mobility. Goncalo is genuinely the best you can get in this regard. Less

This is a great place and a fantastic self defense course. We signed up my daughter and my son this summer. She is going away to college and we wanted her to know some self defense basics.

Amazing Instructor, great students. Give it a try!
I joined with my daughters about a year ago so we could learn self-defense. Krav offers a practical, real world framework for self defense. SD4A/FKRM is a great environment to learn it and Goncalo is a passionate and experienced instructor.

I joined with my daughters about a year ago so we could learn self-defense. Krav offers a practical, real world framework for self defense. SD4A/FKRM is a great environment to learn it and Goncalo is a passionate and experienced instructor. The group classes include folks with different skill levels (inexperienced to very experienced), ages (early teens to older adults, including yours truly) and body types, which makes for a supportive and dynamic environment. Expect to be pushed (respectfully and with appropriate support) - we are learning how to protect our lives and those of our loved ones, after all. Very importantly, there will be a focus on the mental as well the physical - situational awareness, de-escalation and, when that fails, explosive defense.Come and try a class, you will walk away with important defensive knowledge and catch the Krav bug!

I've trained here for about 3 months and the things I've learned n covered in that short space of time is amazing.
I have been training here for more than three years and I love it. Not only have I made a life long friendship with my trainer Gonçalo, I also found an awesome and inspiring family and home here. I have learned a lot. We are a great group of people coming together with the same mission and goals to create a safer community and inspire and train others to do the same.... More

This is a great place to learn the art of Krav Maga. Goncalo is awesome - cares a lot about his students, makes sure you know the techniques, and trains you hard to make it encompasses real life scenarios. All the students here are all very respectful and always willing to help a peer succeed. If you want to learn and have a true desire to excel in this art, this is the only school to visit.... More

Krav Maga becomes part of your life and something you look forward to during the week. Goncalo pushes you to be better and challenges your ability for mental and physical growth. It’s great to see how our team pushes and helps one another which is part of the team culture set by Goncalo. It all started with a first training session and now Im in for the long run! Less

I only have good things to say about FEKM-USA. Goncalo is an incredibly knowledgeable instructor that can break down complicated techniques to make learning much easier and fun. He is very respectful and teaches respect as a core principle of his classes. He expects respect to be shown toward everyone no matter what level you are. Classes are full of techniques to learn and master. Goncalo excels at effectively working with all levels of students, introducing new content to the beginners while building upon existing knowledge for more senior students. The community that was built around FEKM-USA was very supportive, and I gained great friendships while attending classes. I highly recommend studying under Goncalo at FEKM-USA to anyone interesting in learning self-defense. Less
Great instructor!! As a survivor of domestic violence I felt empowered after this class!!
Krav Maga - So you may walk in peace.
