Testimonials to Sensei Kamau
I have enjoyed my time training with Sensei Kamau. When he teaches he makes what you are doing both hard and fun. Sensei Kamau is also very patient when he teaches and doesn't mind working with you if you are having trouble.
San Erik Baskin
My personal experience with Sensei Kamau was one of complete awe. His experience. In additional to his physical size showed fitness through raw power. His recounts of his personal life in his homeland, made me appreciate the freedoms and civil liberties that many of us take for granted. I look forward to one day traveling to Trinidad to train at his dojo.
San Bryan Canty
I like Sensei, because he was cool. And he told us stories and they were awesome. He mad classes fun which makes it even more fun, I am not saying Sensei was more funnier then Sempai I am saying he is fun just as fun as Sempai. I can't wait to see him again at grading.
San Meghan Woodruff

San Peter Germ
I liked Sensei visit because he helped us with our requirements and showed us the changes in them. He helped us prepare for grading we also learned something new he helped us with our fitness, basics, kata's, and break falls. He showed us the new way coming up from our rolls, he tested us on our strength, kia's, cardio and flexibility we used the 'band' to do our sit ups, kicks, plus curl ups. We had help from Sensei with our sparring drills and we used them in our sparring. He showed Instructor the changes in our kata so we could use them he showed us the bonkai for our requirement he showed us what to do if we didn't defend ourselves. He gave us the 'history' about Professor Don Jacob, he showed us how to use the bo-staff in our stances.
San Joshua Fox
Sensei Kamau Drayton is a wonderful teacher, inspire, and overall great person. He opened my mind up ( more ) to the wonderful sport of martial arts. From day one his lectures and training sessions always kept my attention and interest throughout the entire class. I can speak on behalf of everyone when I say his drills taught us all very important techniques and mechanics to further strengthen our abilities. His lectures were meaningful and interesting, full of life lessons that are meant to be cherished forever, his stay was very much appreciated and respected, and a blessing beyond all else.
Ush,
San Kevin
