What people say about Saario Academy

Great people – Humble Instructors – No Ego. One big family. If you looking for great training and self defense I strongly recommend a seminar with Jyrki Saario.

Jan Bjelke

Saario Academy is on the sharp edge of self-defense education for professionals and civilians. Not only because of Jyrki but because of the community.

Ilari Saukkonen

Jyrki Saario is more then a unique fighting artist and mentor. He is a fair and loyal business partner and first of all a very good friend. This is exactly what Saario Academy is about.

Istvan Nagy

Saario Academy is where I found my second family, my warrior family. Very profesional, very pedagogical way of teaching and great knowledge of self defence and combatives.
