Martial Arts America


I would like to re-introduce myself to you. My name is Jeff Serdinsky. I am the President and Chief Instructor of Martial Arts America in Scotch Plains, NJ. I am a 6th degree Black Belt and 12 time National Champion and 3 time World Champion. I was a member of the USTF Team USA International Competition Team and had the honor of being the team captain in 1997 and 2003 representing our country at the World Championships. I am also the President of the USMAA (United states Martial Arts Alliance) and the NJMAA. I currently teach an active 850 plus students at our main academy in Scotch Plains, not counting our many satellite programs.
In early 1995, I made the decision to invest in purchasing the finest mats available for my academy. After research and prayer I chose your mats even though I could not afford them at the time. Looking back, I could not have made a better decision. Over 11 years later and nearly 900 students per week and only two of my red mats have vinyl coming off the edges and one of my red mats has the vinyl lifting from the mat itself in a 1 foot area. I am open 6 days a week 12 hours a day and probably have one of the largest enrollments and successful schools per square foot in the country. I am elated with the performance of your product. It separated my academy from my competitors a decade ago and has helped make my image of the cleanest, most professional looking academy into what it is today.

We are most often reminded in life of our mistakes and the negative things that surround us. I wanted to take the time and thank you for your outstanding product and the impact it has had on me and my academy. When I first started my academy in 1991, I was broke. I used to sleep in my academy (on your mats) after my classes were over, as I had invested all of my life and money into my academy. I now operate a multi million dollar academy, drive two Hummers, own my dream house, and am truly blessed with an amazing family and life. The impact your product had on me and my success may be easy to overlook for some, but not to me. I am grateful and thank you for being willing to work with me when I was in need.
