Rob Eis: School Organizer & Instructor
For 40 years, Rob Eis has been dedicated to the practice of martial arts. Inspired by live action Japanese superheroes he watched as a child on TV growing up in Hawaii, Rob’s martial arts career began with the study of traditional Shito-ryu and Goju-ryu Karate at the age of 10. By age 15 he was competing internationally and that year he was the youngest member on the U.S. Junior National Karate Team. Since then, he has studied a multitude of styles that he now teaches to others, including Doce Pares Escrima, Shamrock Submission Fighting, Judo, Western Boxing, Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, JKD concepts, and Muay Thai kickboxing.

Student Testimonials
I was with UMA for about a year while I lived in the area. I’d had about 1 year or so of experience prior to joining. I loved that the classes involved people of all fighting skills and that you’re training with all different sizes and ages. It makes for a very well-rounded training experience. Rob takes extra time with newer individuals to help you get on track with the current students. I felt at home from day 1! I wish that more gyms would utilize this setting. You have a structured class plan, a friendly and professional environment that is set up by a very knowledgeable and passionate instructor. Rob even took time during class when learning new moves to show me how it would be relevant from a police officer perspective. I have and continue to recommend this class to just about anyone in that area that has mentioned having an interest in martial arts. If you’re into fitness, want to learn self-defense, or have a higher risk job where continuing to hone your defensive tactics is absolutely necessary, UMA is a perfect choice.

The price is so affordable, for what you’re teaching. With no contracts, there’s no pressure that you’re going to be stuck with anything. The classes offer great cardio and a friendly environment, where students develop the skills to work partner drills safely through a system of signals. Rob gives each student personal attention. Every single class has something special.
~ Israel Pedraza, engineer
I am a bouncer at a local nightclub as well as a security specialist for various events and individuals. In seeking a martial arts school to improve my on-the-job effectiveness, skills, and training, it was imperative that I found an instructor and training style that was flexible, practical, effective, versatile and comprehendible.
After reviewing many of the schools in the area it was crystal clear that Unbridled Martial Arts was a perfect fit. Rob, as an instructor, is outstanding in his delivery of information, demonstration of technique, and passion for helping everyone experience success regardless of fitness or skill level. The flexibility of styles from Western Boxing to Judo to basic ground fight techniques offers me and my fellow classmates an unparalleled arsenal of skills to apply. Unbridled Martial Arts is an excellent choice for anyone looking for substance and integrity in a martial arts instructor and school.
