Master Rob is brilliant. His knowledge and instruction are second to none. As a mature age student with a fair degree of experience at other martial arts schools, I cannot recommend FiveStar enough. It has a friendly and family-like atmosphere and teaches techniques that actually work. I learn something new at every class, not just about martial arts but about myself. So, whether you want to train for self-defense or just fitness and fun, give FiveStar a go.

I highly recommend Fivestar Martial Arts. It’s an amazing environment. Master Rob is an outstanding coach. His dedicated to teaching and is so patient, calm and caring. My son has been attending for 3 years and his self confidence has grown so much whilst being encouraged to challenge himself. My daughter then decided on joining in on the fun and started classes 4 months ago. After watching them both having a great time I finally bit the bullet and tried jiu jitsu for myself. After one class I was hooked. I’m loving it. Such an encouraging and inclusive learning environment for any level of experience.

I have known Master Rob Cooley for nearly three decades meeting through our individual journey of Martial Arts/Taekwondo. His passion for Martial Arts knowledge drives him as an Instructor and student of many disciplines. I recommend Five Star Taekwondo for anybody of any age in the South Coast Region.

After thinking about doing some form of martial arts for 10+ years, I finally bit the bullet and decided to give gracie jiu-jitsu a go. I looked at alot of different gyms and found 5 star and master Rob, and I'm glad I did. Master Rob has trained with the best of the best and it shows with his endless knowledge of jiu-jitsu. All the other members are super friendly and will not hesitate to help you out and offer advice where needed. I highly recommend 5 star and master Rob to anyone looking to get their kids or themselves into martial arts...
