Reviews of Bishop's Kajukenbo Academy-Diamond Bar Recreation

Great "ohana" (my Kajukenbo family) ranging from old guys like me to teenagers, learning practical, mixed-martial arts, self-defense techniques and enjoying good hour-and-half workouts twice a week.

I never took a martial arts class before, and I am so thankful I found Professor Bishop and his black belt instructors 7 years ago. Kajukenbo has given me confidence "on the street", and it has motivated me to stay in shape... at least, relatively speaking for me :)

The instructors are very knowledgable, the training is challenging, and the cost is very reasonable. I highly recommend it.

Very good self defense and conditioning training. Hard core yet enjoyable. Very reasonable fees compared to all of the other schools in town.

Highly recommended to anyone who wants real life self defense training with a highly qualified instructor and retired police officer.

The way Professor John Bishop runs his class not only gets you in shape,but gives you confidence in protecting yourself, your family and friends. The techniques used are not flowery forms or weapons katas but are instead techniques designed for self defense against the street fighter or common criminal which is what an attacker would most likely be.

In Professor Bishop’s class you will learn techniques that will be effective against grapplers, multiple attackers, stand up fighters and armed attackers (knives, clubs, and for the more advanced students, guns).

There are boys and girls in the kid’s class and men and women in the adult class. As a woman, this training has been invaluable! It’s great to have the males in the class so you learn how to protect yourself from the most likely attacker...a male.

The students have fun and the Black Belt Instructors are great!
