What Parents Say
Hear from parents who trust MKA with their children's training.
“Coach Artem is an outstanding wrestling coach. Since training with him, my son has never been stronger or faster - and most importantly, he absolutely loves the classes. The sessions are intense, and my son often trains 2 or 3 hours back to back, but Artem creates an environment that pushes the kids while keeping them motivated and engaged. The improvement in my son's strength, speed, and overall athleticism has been incredible to see. Highly recommend Artem to any parent looking for serious training and real results.”
Aaron Conway
Google Review
“MKA is great if you want your child to learn proper grappling with real takedowns, top control and realistic self defence. Coach Artem has a clear system for kids, building from the basics so they understand both wrestling and BJJ and learn to enjoy working hard. I hesitated to write this because I don't really want the gym to get too crowded, but good coaching in Singapore deserves support. If you or your child are serious about improving and open to learning, you'll really appreciate this place.”
