About Sambo
SAMBO is the Russian acronym for "SAMozaschita Bez Orujiya" or "Self-Defense without Weapon”. Created in the 1930's SAMBO was officially recognized as a new form of free-style wrestling 1938, and was renamed SAMBO in 1946. This system is compilation of the most effective techniques from European wrestling, Japanese and Chinese martial arts along with national martial arts of USSR area natives (Georgians, Armenians, Mongols, and Russians etc). SAMBO today can be broadly classified into 3 divisions:
Sports Sambo (Borba Sambo). Similar to amateur wrestling or Judo but with differences in rules, protocol, and uniform, Sports SAMBO permits leg locks where Judo does not, but Judo allows choking but SAMBO does not. There are somewhat more techniques in SAMBO than in Judo.
Combat Sambo (Boyevoye Sambo). Developed for the general military, this is arguably the root of Sambo as it is now known. Competition in combat sambo resembles older forms of judo and modern mixed martial arts, including extensive striking and grappling. Points awarded are similar to that of Sports Sambo.
Special Sambo (Personal Protection). Developed for Army Special Forces, Rapid Reaction Police (Militsija) teams, and other law enforcement agencies, Special Sambo prepares the practitioner for street and battlefield combat the shortest possible time. The objective of Special Sambo is survival and employs many dangerous techniques which must be practiced only under supervision.

Our Classes
We are the pioneers for SAMBO in Singapore and conduct classes and workshops for all 3 divisions. Classes are available for children and adults with opportunities for developing self-confidence, assertiveness, and leadership skills, as well as physical coordination, power, and flexibility, while developing valuable personal protection skills. To maintain a consistent level of instruction and supervision, classes are kept small (maximum 24 participants). Not more than 6 students are assigned to 1 trainer.
If you are still unsure about making a commitment, please contact us to discuss your training needs. We also offer trial options, especially for younger children, so you don’t need to make a huge financial commitment up front if you feel that it isn’t for you or your child.
