I took the women’s self defense workshop and absolutely loved it! It’s not only very important for women to learn how to defend themselves, but it’s also a lot of fun. Would highly recommend. Everyone is very kind and helpful.

I did the women’s self defense class, master Maui is an amazing instructor and the team he had assisting him were all so helpful. My son also attends the Ninjitsu classes and loves going! Everyone there is so kind.

In my opinion this school is the best in the valley. My son and I both attend here, but tried a couple of other schools and visited many in Chandler, Tempe and Mesa. My son likes martial arts so it has never been hard to get him to go to classes, but after two weeks here he said that of the different schools he has tried this is the one he wants to go to from now on. It is a long drive for us from East Mesa, but we feel it is worth it!The personal attention from Master Maui combined with the knoweldge he has of martial arts and his great attitude with the kids make this dojo #1!

I found this studio while looking for a martial arts school for my younger child. She has tried classes on different schools and fell in love with this one right away, and with good reason. The exercises are challenging and prepare the kids for many real life situations while having fun. Master Maui is really patient and awesome with kids, contrary to other instructors who impose themselves instead.My child would not change this class for anything!!!Now my whole family is taking Master Maui Ninjitsu classes and we are looking forward to get our black belts one day!!

My son has been going to Ninjitsu with Master Maui since he was 3. He is now 6 and still loves it! Now his 3 year old brother has joined him and they have a blast together. Master Maui is amazing and patient with the kids, teaching them great skill sets through engaged listening and participation.

We had my sons 7th birthday party here and what an amazing time we all had! Maui is terrific with the kids, making sure everyone has a blast. With a zip line, rope swing, disco lights, music and great games, it really was impossible not to have a good time (even for parents). Admittedly, I wasnt expecting a lot given the price - FREE (donations encouraged). But the experience easily beat others weve had at places charging double of what we ended up donating. Thanks, Maui!

My 4 year old absolutely loves Ninjitsu and Master Maui!! He is learning skills like balance, coordination as well as patience and respect. Every class is unique and jammed packed with fun things like swinging on a rope to using pool noodles as swords!! We are excited for summer camp to start soon!!

Master Maui is excellent with the students and has a calm, strong, yet gentle way of instructing the class. In only a few lessons, my 8 year old son starting realizing he needed to take more responsibility for his surroundings, all due to Mauis specific guidance.

I have been taking martial arts classes at this place for many years now and it has been a wonderful experience. Everyone at the dojo has been very nice and I have learned so much from my experience here. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone who does not want to compete in tournaments, but simply wants to learn how to defend themselves in risky situations. :)

I am not one to post a lot of reviews, and when I do I am brutally honest. So with that in mind, I have to say that Maui Saito Ninjitsu is by far the best and most unique program I have ever seen. My 7 year old has been doing it for just under a year and loves it. It is not your typical program where the kids stand in rows and practice moves of katas. Master Maui teaches them unique skills that would help them if ever caught in a bad situation. The kids are having so much fun that they dont even realize they are getting a valuable lesson. They are also learning how to focus when there is distraction and get out of dangerous situations. You kind of have to see it for yourself to truly get an understanding of it. On top of that, some of the moves they learn are amazing.. It doesnt matter how small you are for Ninjitsu to be effective. I have seen my 7 year old take down a kid who is twice his size and weight. It is certainly a great confidence builder and a way for kids to deal with bullies if ever put in the situation.Now on to Master Maui... I can sincerely say he is one of the nicest people I have ever met and his dojo like a big family. He is great with the kids and a fantastic teacher to say the least. You can tell he truly cares about the kids and loves what he does. He was taught Ninjitsu by his father in Hawaii, you can read the unique history on his website.As I said, it is the kind of thing you have to see to fully get an understanding of it. I guarantee it is not like anything you have ever seen. We found it by chance when looking at different schools that were close to home. I am certainly glad we did and have no doubt my son will stick with it. I honestly cant say enough good things about the school or Master Maui... If you are looking for a place, I couldnt recommend it enough.

What a great place to learn the martial art of Ninjitsu. Master Maui and Sensei Daren are GREAT teachers, the way they teach with knowledge and ease makes it a great learning environment. They make the learning experience great they are patient and works with you and makes sure you understand what you are doing. They make you feel at home they make it enjoyable so you enjoy taking the class and cant wait to come back for more. I think it beats out any other martial arts that is out there, this class is taught by a great Master of Ninjitsu and you get a lot of different instruction to learn new and different stuff. The way the teachers are calm and patient and they want to see you succeed and learn Ninjitsu.They have a weapons class that is loads of fun, they teach Katana blade, Sais, nunchucks ,and other Ninjitsu weapons, as well as self defense against those that may have weapons. The other classes are learning Ninjitsu moves to work up the rank to earn your belts. I am very happy that I found this place and found such great teachers to teach me. They make it a fun learning environment. I will keep coming back to learn more and all I can learn from such great and dedicated teachers.I am very very impressed with how the company is run, how each class is run and how the instructions are done in each class and how the teachers teach the students, you would not go wrong coming to this place to learn. Worth checking it out and taking classes here you wont go wrong. I love it there and cant wait for the next class to be back for more. you are always learning different things in each class so its never boring or same old same old stuff, the teachers mix things up to give things a variety lots of stuff.
