“Hello Sensei VLADIMIR,

Let’s first start by saying how amazingly wonderful YOU and your staff are with all the children!  YOU truly put all your heart and soul into every class!  You are patient, funny, firm, strong and compassionate with each class you teach!  You make sure that each child understands what they are doing and you even personalize it by working with each child on a one to one basis when necessary!  You and your sampai & staff go above and beyond to enrich, encourage, build confidence & self esteem in children of all ages & ability levels.  YOU and your Sempai’s make the classes exciting, fun, rewarding and you can see the joy and accomplishment on each child’s face!

When I first met you and your staff at Safety Day 2015 in Eastchester I was very impressed with your expertise, knowledge and education in Martial Arts.  I was a bit nervous to enroll my son into your program because he has learning issues.  But you and your staff pulled me aside to reassure me that he would be OK and that you would do everything you could to work with him.  THAT WAS in the end of MAY 2015 and now in August 2015 he is very proud and excited to have attained his YELLOW BELT in Karate!  He was able to accomplish this wonderful goal because of the hardwork, dedication, and consistent attention that you and your staff provide not only to him but to all the children as well.  My daughter who is also enrolled is a green belt working very hard to attain her blue belt very soon!  We thank you, sampai, and all your staff for all that you do each and everyday!

We are so happy to be a part of the KI Martial Arts-Westchester Krav Maga! ”   August 15, 2015

“My children have been attending KI Martial Arts for about one year and we enjoy attending classes every week!   Sensei Vladimir cares about all of his students; he knows all of their names, is very patient, encourages students to do their best and keeps all of them in control, regardless of the class size.  The students that assist during the classes are just as attentive and focused on the students as the Sensei.  It is also fun for us parents when we are pulled into the fun and get to do a few push-ups with the kids. My children and I recommend KI Martial Arts, unreservedly. ”  August 14, 2015

“As a dedicated practitioner of the martial arts for 30 years, I truly appreciate the integrity of the school that Sensei Vladimir has built in our community.
It is extremely rare to find a teacher with his expertise & proficiency who is able to convey and relate exceptionally well with very small children all the way through to adults in a fun & nuturing, learning environment. He has built a thriving, exceptional school without the need to have his students sign financial contracts and they truly enjoy being there. My son has learned a great deal of self esteem, perseverance, self confidence, discipline and dedication in addition to him strengthening his body and building endurance both physically and mentally. His experience there will serve him for the rest of his life.

“When my son first started going to karate at ki martial arts, 3 years ago, he was very uncoordinated. He couldn’t even run properly. We were worried that he wasn’t going to be good in any sports. A couple of months after he started doing karate, we noticed an amazing improvement. He became a lot stronger, faster, and he was having fun. Now, besides karate he plays baseball in the spring, tennis, golf, track and field in the summer , and basketball in the fall. He is always one of the best in whatever sport he does. I truly believe it’s because he got a good start in ki martial arts. He also learned the confidence to be able to stand up for himself instead of just taking the abuse from other kids. This year we’ll be starting a new class in ki martial arts, Krav Maga for kids. My son is very excited.”
