I can honestly say all the programs from Ninja Stars, Samurai Warriors, Junior Adults and even the Fitness Kickboxing classes are some of the most well rounded programs I have seen.
— Van L.
Great dojo space and even better teachers and instructors. … Ignited a passion for the martial art in a complete beginner myself!
— Jonathan Y.
We couldn’t be happier with the care and patience that all of the teachers have with our son. Since we started, we have seen a massive improvement in his motor strength, coordination, and perseverance.
— Bohuslava J.
My young son has been attending Guests Martial Arts for over three years, and it's really helped him with agility and coordination, and increased confidence in his physical abilities. … Lessons include discussions about things like friendships, positive social behaviour, sensible risk taking, and there are also reward programs for reading and good manners.
— Dan P.
I’ve studied seven or eight martial arts myself over the years, but I’ve never seen a dojo so welcoming, or less driven by ego. … I really don’t think there’s a better martial arts venue in Melbourne.
— Aaron S.
