TESTIMONIALS
"With over 20 years of experience of study in various martial art systems, none have compared to the easy-to-learn, street effective techniques and concepts of the Vee-Arnis-Jitsu system. Couple that with the devastating techniques and great aerobic workout that Muay-Thai provides, you will need to look no further than the Rhode Island Vee-Arnis-Jitsu school of self-defense. Their professional staff will help motivate you in achieving your goals, whether you wish to lose weight, get fit, or learn how to take care of yourself or loved ones in any street situation."

"I have been a member of Vee-Arnis-Jitsu and kickboxing stamina class now for over two years now. The classes are an AWESOME work out, which I always leave feeling a great sense of accomplishment. I have dropped two clothing sizes since I have been a member and plan to keep going. Joining the Vee-Arnis-Jitsu Muay Thai stamina classes are a guaranteed way to gain strength and confidence. Jake and Mike are great motivators and teachers. It has been a great experience being part of this program. I am not a big fan of working out. That was why it was so great to find something I really enjoy and see results too!"

" I have been studying under Sensei Mike Preite and Sensei Jake Burke for two years. I find it to be a highly-effective system of self-defense training, from the 1, 2, 3 Hit Program to defense against an edged weapon. Studying under both instructors have given me confidence in my ability to handle myself should a difficult situation occur. I have also been privileged to watch and train at Professor James' seminars. I highly encourage anyone interested in learning this amazing form of self-defense to join us in a class and find out for yourself what Vee-Arnis Jujitsu can bring to your life!"

"After trying many forms of Martial Arts that claim to teach street self defense, the one style that really hits the bullseye is Rhode Island Vee-Arnis-Jitsu. It's no-nonsense moves get right to the point. The chief instructor of the system, Professor David James, just got voted by Black Belt Magazine to be one of the top twenty toughest men in the country. Couple this with the fact that Jake an Mike are tough realistic teachers, makes this school number one in my book."

“With a black belt in Kenpo and having studied various other forms of martial arts in the past fifteen years, I say with complete certainty that Vee-Arnis-Jitsu is, by leaps and bounds, the most effective defense system I have ever seen. I can also honestly say that all the martial arts training I've learned in my life did not provide the inner confidence and realistic ability that I gained in my first six months of serious training at RI Vee-Arnis-Jitsu. There was always that question in the back of my mind... 'Will this stuff actually work?' The answer for most stuff is simply...‘No.' However, the answer for Vee-arnis-Jitsu is simply...‘Yes.' You have the ability to see why. The proof is waiting. Go and look for yourself.”
