Great place to learn self defense! Chris is an excellent and supportive instructor and the students and other instructors make up a positive community. My teenage daughter is learning practical, real-world defense techniques that are simple but effective, and she's having fun doing it. It's great exercise too!

The instructors in the morning are awesome! They’re supportive, thorough, and efficient. I’ve learned quite a bit from only doing 5 classes thus far, and I recommend Fitlab to anyone looking for self defense training!
