Krav Maga - K.A.M.I. has been an incredible experience since I started in January 2024! Sergey, the head instructor, has a supportive and inspiring teaching style that makes learning practical self-defense techniques accessible to everyone, regardless of age or physical condition. I earned my Yellow Belt in December, and the program’s welcoming environment, friendly classmates, and focus on building strength, confidence, and situational awareness make it truly exceptional.Sergey is an incredibly welcoming, knowledgeable, and supportive role model. He explains techniques in great detail and ensures everyone has the opportunity to practice and improve. His leadership is reflected in the club’s members, who are equally friendly, welcoming, and supportive. I highly recommend Krav Maga - K.A.M.I. for anyone looking to learn self-defense in a positive, empowering, and inclusive environment—it’s never too late to start!

I have been fortunate enough to have found K.A.M.I. this past summer, and even more fortunate to have met Sergey. He is an incredibly welcoming, knowledgable, supportive and inspiring instructor, and role model, and has fostered exactly that in his club. The members follow his lead, and are equally friendly, welcoming and supportive.Sergey has built a club, and is fostering a community; a community open to all that prides itself on its strength, its disciple and its camaraderie. It is a wonderful place to build and to grow.

As a 70-year-old student who has transformed my fitness and confidence, I cannot more strongly recommend KAMI Krav Maga for individuals of all ages seeking exceptional self-defense training. This extraordinary martial arts program stands out in ways that make it truly remarkable.KAMI Krav Maga's curriculum is meticulously designed to accommodate practitioners from every stage of life. What sets them apart is their highly qualified instruction and thoughtfully structured approach that ensures students progress at a comfortable yet challenging pace. Whether you're a parent of a pre-teen, teenager, a working professional, or a senior like myself, their program adapts seamlessly to individual needs and abilities.The facility itself is impressive - spacious, immaculately maintained, and equipped with clean, convenient dressing areas and washrooms. But beyond the physical space, what truly matters is the quality of instruction and the transformative impact of their training.The pricing is remarkably reasonable, especially considering the comprehensive skills and confidence you'll develop. Their flexible scheduling means you can easily integrate training into your lifestyle, removing common barriers to consistent practice.Perhaps most importantly, this isn't just about self-defense techniques - it's about personal empowerment. As living proof, I can attest that KAMI Krav Maga doesn't just teach you how to protect yourself; it helps you rediscover your strength, improve your fitness, and boost your self-confidence in ways you might never have imagined possible.For anyone contemplating self-defense training, regardless of age or fitness level, KAMI Krav Maga is an investment in yourself that you will not regret.Highly recommend them.

KAMI KRAV MAGEN IS FANTASTIC! Perfect for adults and children!!Sergey and his team of instructors really empower the students with practical and effective self defense techniques and moves, while helping us develop strong situational awareness and building strength, stamina, and confidence.Shortly after joining the group, I developed such a strong appreciation for Sergey’s teaching style that I signed up my 4.5 year old daughter to his kids class. She loved it after her first class and looks forward to her weekly Krav Maga lessons more than any of her other activities. Through a combination of games and drills geared to stimulate and enhance a child’s coordination, reaction, and spatial awareness skills, my child’s confidence levels have sky rocketed and she’s well aware of where and when she can practice her Krav Maga and where and when she cannot. :)I recommend this for everyone. These days you can never be too prepared for the unthinkable. This goes for adults and children of all ages.Thank you Sergey and team at KAMI!

Sergey is passionate about the Krav Maga self defense brand. He gently pushes everyone in our class to our limits, to achieve our goals in our own personal way, one session at a time. He is extremely patient with all of us, encouraging us to realize how adopting the Krav Maga techniques can make a positive impact on outcomes. He is quietly effective and intuitive. His knowledge exudes his confidence. I am very grateful for his motivational approaches during our classes. So far, Sergey has helped me to improve my balance, strength and stamina. I feel more confident about being out and about. He is truly a professional instructor.

I recently started a Krav Maga class here and was thoroughly impressed by the experience. The instructor Sergey were not only knowledgeable and skilled but also incredibly supportive, ensuring each participant understood the techniques and the principles behind them. The class environment was welcoming and encouraging, fostering a sense of community among attendees. I appreciated the curriculum's comprehensive approach, covering a wide range of self-defense scenarios and techniques that felt both practical and applicable in real-world situations. Moreover, the emphasis on situational awareness and prevention was particularly valuable. Whether you're a beginner or have previous martial arts experience, this Krav Maga class offers a great opportunity to learn effective self-defense skills, improve physical fitness, and boost confidence. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to embark on or continue their martial arts journey.

Sergey is a wonderful instructor! Patient, mild mannered, thorough and positive. The system is serious and you immediately know it’s a structured as well. Sergey always makes you feel extremely comfortable regardless of your background or level. The classes have an amazing balance of cardio training, Krav Magen training and instruction. Every class is different. You will work with striking pads, simulated knife attacks and general self defense techniques. I was personally very pleasantly surprised to have an instructor who was so positive and skilled throughout the class.I had almost no experience in martial arts and now, after attending claasss twice a week for over a month, I feel very confident and excited to learn more each class.You MUST check this place out, it’s the real deal!!!!
