Welcome to Polygon Elite, the Survival Value Expert, located in NYC, New York, NY. My name is Sergei Maslikhov and I specialize in hand to hand combat training, featuring close quarters combat (CQC), ground and submission techniques, multiple attackers, firearms, including hand guns, rifles, and machine guns (AK-47s). I also specialize in edged and improvised weapons(stick, belt, jacket, glasses, etc.), including knife defense, knife throwing, knife fighting and weapons disarmament. Perfect for urban warfare, such as Iraq, or street fighting scenarios. I also offer self defense classes for women and teens that focus on effective and dangerous, but not deadly/lethal unarmed combat techniques for personal protection/safety in civilian situations, such as a rape attacker or shooting attacker; you'll have more to rely on than the ubiquitous groin kick or attack. All of my courses involve realistic simulation, including full body contact and sparring techniques. The back-end benefits of my courses are full body conditioning, strength, agility, flexibility, mental awareness and improved breathing proficiency; more than any group of typical exercises or fitness regime will give you. My courses are more focused on a military approach versus a sport approach, so you won't experience aggressive techniques or aggression, such as in Krav Maga. You also won't experience regimented sports-like drills or moves that involve years of fine-motor skills practice and repetition, such as in Hap kido, Aikido, Judo, Jujitsu, Karate, Kung Fu, Sambo, Wing Chun, Muay Thai, Tae Kwon Do, Tai Chi, and other martial arts. My courses are based on full body motion that capitalizes on the body's natural movement and balance abilities. In addition to developing effective and efficient punches, pressure point maneuvers, rolling and falling techniques that help you divert and avoid while protecting your body from hard surfaces. I offer a total, elite combat system from the most basic and fundamental to the most advanced, that is at times gentle, fluid, extreme, powerful, and always adaptable techniques against a taller, bigger, more experienced fighter, because you don't choose violent attacks, they choose you! My experience involves over 20 years of combined professional training with various martial arts, including Judo and Russian Martial Arts (Systema), with the Russian Special Forces (Spetsnaz), Russian Airborne, and Israeli Special Forces. My courses are designed for civilians as well as professional warriors, such as law enforcement (police, detectives, SWAT, etc.) and military (army, navy, marines, air force, coast guard, reserves, etc.), and other government agencies (FBI, CIA, Homeland Security, etc.). I'm not professing to have the best system or know everything there is to know about combatant instruction. Nor do I offer any guarantees. But I do offer a system that will improve your changes of surviving in a real life violent attack or warfare situation, where there are no rules, warnings or time outs! The ultimate in Survival Training. A chameleon's survival value is it's ability to change colors, what's your survival value?!
