Testimonials

MODERN AMERICAN WARRIOR is the most comprehensive and accessible self defense program in the country. The methods taught have real world application and compliment the inherent and natural instincts we all have to defend ourselves, family, and friends. The pedigree of the instructors is only rivaled by a teaching methodology that has been time tested in all combative environments and as such has brought me a peace of mind that allows me to move through my life with quiet vigilance and confidence. Having trained in martial arts somewhat sporadically over the last fourteen years and with the hectic schedule that comes with urban living, MODERN AMERICAN WARRIOR'S techniques and psychological application allows for concentrated training as well as intermittent refreshers that keep the senses at a heightened awareness and the ability to access and execute its system with a natural ease and effectiveness like no other. Marcus Buonfiglio and Chester Peterson have the expertise, experience, and lineage to articulate in easily accessible fashion this unique system of self defense that allows for the sacred protection of one's peace.

Modern American Warrior has given me the confidence that I was looking for to protect my family. Thanks Marcus and Chester for your commitment to your continued training in Kenpo and your expertise in passing along your knowledge to me.

Marcus Buonfiglio and Chester Peterson are two of the finest martial artists and men of character I have the pleasure of knowing. The system they teach is effective, realistic, and proven on both the street and the battlefield. I also have 100% confidence in their integrity and honor. I first met both of them in 2002 while they were assisting Grand Master Michael Pick train combatives to the 10th Special Forces Group (Airborne) at Ft. Carson, Colorado. Since that time I have taken every opportunity available to train both with them and under their tutelage. They have been instrumental in shaping the Battlefield Combatives Course I designed and are currently key advisors to the Combatives Program at Ft. Bliss, Texas.
