Train with Purpose. Grow with Confidence. Compete with Excellence.

Who We Are

World Elite Martial Arts (WEMA) was founded in September 2024 with a bold vision: to create something fundamentally different from the typical martial arts school. Rather than operating as another recreational “day care,” WEMA was established as a powerhouse academy, a place where discipline, character, and high-level performance come together.

WEMA is the result of a powerful partnership between two leaders with complementary strengths:

Snezhana Bogatin, a serial entrepreneur, oversees the business and strategic development of the academy, ensuring a professional, family-focused environment and long-term growth.

Master Trotta, a Karate World Champion, leads all training programs, bringing over 40 years of karate experience and the distinction of being an impressive 5th-degree Black Belt.

Together, they created an academy that blends elite athletic training with a supportive community, offering students a clear pathway from their first class to national and international competition.
