Testimonials
"I watched a class the other night Master Rob and they had a bluebelt teaching and it was so terrible, I have 15 yrs experience before coming to you and I felt so embarassed because the students didnt know any better it was horrible. I knew from the outset as soon as a walked in and had done my research that you are the real thing....." Ian C.
Your school and coaching is the best I am so happy that my son Hongi Eum was accepted into your school. Hongi is so much more happier with his Taekwondo Training now. (Hongki went to the same Korean High School as Sun Hee Lee, Sydney Olympic Gold Medallist)

Our son was being bullied at school , I thought that learning Karate would be a help so i rang around and found FiveStar Martial Arts School and haven't looked back, learning the right skills in a safe environment. FiveStar Martial Arts School was the greatest choice! Master Rob was very welcoming, professional and cost effective. Straight away he's grown in confidence, gained new self defence skills, improved his coordination and has learnt self discipline, but importantly the bullying stopped instantly and not because he is bashing people he has so much confidence he is not the target..

I have been a teacher at a few different Martial Arts Schoolsin the Illawarra I have my own kids in Master Robs school. I tell my friends that i no way let my kids train with anyone else. I have far more knowledge then most instructors and been in a few styles. I go on to say that Master Rob know 20 times more them me. They are just the best.

My daughter and infact all my children have trained with Master Rob and have been there for many years. My daughter is now a 3rd degree blackbelt, my son a 3rd degree blackbelt and 1st degree MMA, my other son a 1st degree blackbelt and my youngest a yellowbelt. I think it says it all about the school and Master Rob it is so good for all the children. I know my children are higher or the same rank as many other school teachers.
