Coach Serge Gerlach originally trained with Grandmaster Alex Barakov (a 40 yr veteran of Sambo and other disciplines) and has continued his lineage with over 10 years of Sambo teaching and training. Recently, Serge was invited to train at the famous Boretz School in Moscow. Boretz was recently featured in “Human Weapon” where Sambo, Sumo and Judo Champion Igor Kurionny demonstrated conditioning and techniques to the hosts of the show.
Serge Gerlach is an assistant instructor with New York Combat Sambo and is an officer of the American Sambo Association (ussambo.com). He has competed in Sport Sambo, Freestyle Sambo, submission grappling, and Brazillian Jiu-Jitsu. He also has further experience in San Shou, MMA-specific training and Judo.
I can vouch that Serge is an excellent instructor. I am by no means appropriately aggressive for such “martial” arts, but I have had a good roll with these guys. Ladies, if you’ve ever wanted to do something that I assume is completely out of your comfort zone, this is a great place to do it!
