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.

Great Facility with a perfect blend of Stand up and ground martial arts. Suitable for all ages and abilities. Head Instructor Rob has a wealth of knowledge and shares the art with a passion. Highly recommended!

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.

Martial Arts is a skill for life and I am proud to say that both Taekwondo and Fivestar have been a huge part of my life for a long time. Master Rob has extensive experience and knowledge at both club and competition level. With hard work and dedication under Master Rob’s guidance you can achieve your goals and beyond.

Known Rob for many years - his students are always top notch competitors but more importantly great people. Clearly a reflection of Rob's teaching and leadership. Great teacher for women and children in particular due to his respect for women and kind manner. Highly recommend!

I can confidently say that being a member of FiveStar it's been an incredible opportunity to work towards my goals in TKD specially being from overseas with high standard of training in TKD One of the standout features of this gym is its knowledgeable and friendly Master Rob who is very professional and passionate about what he does and is always ready to provide excellent guidance and support.

A great club. Master Rob is a great coach. Obviously very knowledgeable, but also really encouraging, and passionate about seeing every student grow. Everyone at the club is so friendly and supportive. The culture really encourages everyone to challenge themselves and grow while having a lot of fun. It's very inclusive here, and anybody who is interested in martial arts should give it a try regardless of age, gender, fitness level or ability.

Love this place! I’ve been to many martial arts places throughout the area and this one is by far the best. Master Rob is very respectful and makes sure everyone feels safe during his lessons. He is very professional and a great teacher he is also very skilled.

Rob is such a great coach. He is caring, patient and extremely dedicated to martial arts and all his students. Could never find a better gym

My daughter and I love going here. Rob is a true Master of all his styles. We felt very accepted when we joined and everyone is keen to help eachother learn.

For the past three months, my five-year-old has been a part of Five Star, attending three times a week. He's been learning invaluable life skills such as discipline, first time listening, martial arts, and self-defense. He looks forward to each training session and is loving it. Kudos to Master Rob for creating such a positive environment!

Joining Rob’s gym has been one of the best decisions I’ve made. Been going for roughly 2 months and feel like I’m progressing every session they are all great people down at Fivestar!

My children tried out martial arts with Five Star Martial Arts. Master Rob is great with them, very patient with the younger kids, keeps them all engaged and makes the classes fun. Highly recommend Five Star Martial Arts and Master Rob.

By far best martial arts school in town with a variety of different arts to learn and for only 39$ a week for as many classes as you want is crazy value master Rob is one of the most genuine people I've met while training and always has his students best interests in mind.

Great gym! Can’t recommend it enough. Diverse range of students across multiple disciplines. Master Rob is welcoming and knowledgeable but most of all he cares about his students unlike the bigger franchises. Do yourself a favour and give it a try.

My whole family trains at Five Star with Master Rob, my kids in taekwondo and my husband and and myself in BJJ Our experience has been second to one. Master Rob is extremely experienced and by far the best teacher of these arts around. Having my own background in martial arts from the start we felt welcome, valued and we love being part of the amazing community that has been created at Five Star Martial Arts. The values here flow through every member and are those of respect, compassion and accountability. You could not ask for a better place to train at. My kids have amazing role models to look up to and are instilled with the right kind of values and gaining confidence as they grow and progress. Master Rob has also welcomed in my disabled brother in law and has treated him with respect and understanding and has gone above and beyond to help him learn and incorporate his needs into every lesson he attends. He know also loves his training with Five Star also and it’s been an integral part of his development and therapy also.
