Kaizen MMA of Ashburn

Our son has been taking classes at Kaizen for 1 year and we all love it! We were recommended to come here. Our son has learned alot and always has fun doing it. Sensei Vlado is a great teacher and very friendly! We love that he teaches them self defense and life lessons as well.

We've had a great experience with' martial arts classes at Kaizem MMA. Overall, we are very happy with the value and quality of the program. The classes are well-structured, and the instructors do a great job of keeping the kids engaged while also challenging them to improve. Our children genuinely enjoy coming here and look forward to each session.

Sensei is excellent at fostering discipline, respect, and focus in a positive and encouraging way. He balances firm guidance with motivation, helping kids build confidence while learning important skills.

Our son has been going to MMA for almost a year now and our experience continues to be incredible. Starting with the technique of training, building confidence in kids and teaching them how to protect themselves. Our son loves the place and enjoys every time we come here. I would highly recommend the place to your kiddos.

I have been going to Kaizen MMA for a couple years, and all I can talk about is how amazing the experience is. I have learned so many valuable skills and techniques and improved my confidence. The sensei is a professional, and he is very hardworking and determined. He always makes sure we understand everything before proceeding and pushes us to perform our best.
I would definitely recommend Kaizen MMA to everyone, regardless of age or skill.

We have been going here for almost 3 years now.

What is truly unique about Kaizen MMA is the style of instructions and the values and character imparted on my 8 year old.

Unlike some other dojos/schools, this is NOT a dog and pony show. The emphasis is on resilience, practical skills and conditioning.

When my son is pinned on the bottom, he is encouraged to keep on fighting/contending, to strive and never give up.

Sometime, the little guy get a bit stunned by the punch or kick (by gloves with helmet on) of another kid, he might run back to me, but then insist on heading back in to the fight, after a drink of water.

I do keep a very vigilent eye based on my own experience with MCMAP/Army Combatives/JKD, but the instructors are exceptiobally patient and watchful to prevent locks, chokes and injuries.

I try to bring my son here 2 to 3 times a week, covering both striking and grappling with a conditioning class on Saturdays. Occasionally my wife and 5 year old daughter joins us for conditioning as well (but it's hard to get everyone out of the house in time). Nothing keep me going and pushing out my reps like some snickering from my boy. In short, it is a REAL father son bonding time.

The fact that a significant number of parent are from military families (some with personal experience with martial arts and training) attest to our consensus that this place builds REAL skills that our kids will need in life, on or off the mat.
