Reviews of New York State Kajukenbo Self Defense & Thai Kick Boxing

An excellent school, excellent teacher, excellent students. You will not find a better place to train and learn a real skill that you could actually use to protect your life. The instructor is there to maximize your time and efforts, no wasted time or money.

Rob is the best MMA instructor you can find! He makes you feel welcome and encourages and motivates you constantly. This dojo is wonderful for any level. I started about 3 years ago as a complete beginner. Rob conducts each lesson extremely personalized making sure each student is working toward their goals. I had to leave the dojo when I moved to NC. One of the things I miss most is Kajukenbo. I have looked all over and have come to the conclusion that Rob and NYS Kajukenbo is one of a kind. No where else will you find a more dedicate instructor. There is no judgement, only motivation and encouragement. I would recommend Anaya's Kajukenbo and Rob to anyone. Please check this place out!

I started with Rob when he first set out to establish a dojo, before he even had a building or a full class of students. After nearly two years training under Rob and watching his dream unfold before me, I can honestly say you won't find a more dedicated, insightful, or experienced instructor out there.

I've wrestled, boxed, and most recently, after moving hundreds of miles away and training with a local MMA gym. Even now, I am astounded how much time and effort Rob spent helping me become the best possible martial artist I could be. He tailors his teaching method to your learning style, alters the curriculum when necessary to emphasize your strengths and protect against your weaknesses, and his eye for personal technique and style is, in my experience, unmatched.

The quality of training you will receive is bar none the highest grade I've ever encountered and considering his prices against all the other options out there, you absolutely will not find a better deal. I will always regret not continuing my education with Rob and I am proud to call him a mentor and a friend. And if that's the kind of experience you're looking for, then don't hesitate to give him a call.
