Reviews of JROB Intensive Wrestling Camps

Bob Isenberger

The absolute best camp that we have ever sent our boys too or attended myself!! The knowledge about wrestling and himself that he gained at the camp along with his roommate helping him get through it were the best thing for him this summer. He can’t wait to apply everything that he learned at the camp for his upcoming wrestling season!!!! Thank you again for a very positive experience for my son as I hope he takes all the lessons he learned with I’m in his journey’s in sports and life in general!!!

My son attended the 28 day j rob camp in summer of 2016 and loved it. He said it was hard but fun and would definitely go back and recommends that others go too. From my observation the camp isn't only about wrestling but also about teaching kids responsibility in their day to day life. I've seen a positive change with my son both on and off the mat and my son speaks very highly of J Rob. If you can make it happen this is a must go to camp!!

This was life changing for my 17 year old son!! He was challenged in every way as an athlete as well as a person. He’s definitely a better wrestler because of the month long camp but more noticeable is the change in him as a person. The motivational talks and goalsetting he learned at JROB has truly changed his life. He will take these experiences with him always.........It’s not just about wrestling. This may sound cliche, but he left a boy and came home a man! I highly recommend this experience for any kid tough enough to take the challenge!!!

Sent my son to the 28 Day Intensive Camp last year. My son learned so much and improved immensely in his wrestling development. Jay Robinson and all his staff truly care about the kids and teach them not only great wrestling techniques but life lessons that will be carried on for the rest of there life. If you are deciding on what camp to send your son or daughter to look no further this is the right camp for your wrestler.

My son attended the 10 day Iowa Intensive Camp the summer before his sophomore year. Going into the camp he already had a strong work ethic and great amount of discipline. That being said, I was amazed at how much the camp allowed him to further those skills by giving him a greater appreciation of what he is capable of and how much harder he needed to push himself to meet his goals. His sophomore year he maintained a 3.81 GPA, was named Team Captain and placed 4th in the state at 160 lbs. He is already registered for camp again this summer and is bringing 4 of his teammates with him. I highly recommend JROB to others who want to not only to succeed in the great sport of wrestling, but who also want to establish core principles that will help them succeed far beyond their high school years.

Great experience for my son. This camp not only taught technique but focused on the intangible skills of drive and determination of completing a goal and the will to do so on a daily basis. If you have a kid that has a passion for wrestling this is the camp for them. My son also had two team mates attend with him which was a plus.

Time does not permit me to list the changes the 28 day Intensive Camp made in my son's life ( maturity, focus, his mentoring younger wrestlers). It was, the most trying, soul-wrenching month of his 18 years. Thank you for instilling in him the belief that he can accomplish great things, that hard work DOES pay off, that accomplishments take sacrifice. He placed first in our Region, was named Wrestler of the Year in our Region, and this past weekend became 2016 Alaska State Champ at #138 lbs.

My son had an amazing experience at the PA intensive camp. He came back a better wrestler and an even better young man. His entire outlook about the season changed and he went from a state qualifier with a 0-2 record at the state tournament as a freshman to 5th place finisher as a sophomore. He is planning to attend intensive camp again this summer.

Wow, what a great experience for our 14 year old son. He's wrestled at the competitive club level since he was 7 and placed at the kids State level, but the JRob 28-Day Intensive Camp pushed him and helped him grow in ways he never could have at any local, short summer camps. Although he was 14 and just about to start his freshman year, he immediately was comfortable with the environment, counselors, campers, program, etc. Don't confuse comfort with "easy" as there is nothing easy about the 28-Day Intensive Camp... but what to expect is made very clear if you watch the JRob videos, read the website, etc. Amazing what my son now knows he can accomplish on the mat and in life thanks to J and his staff!! J stresses the keys to personal success ~ and he's totally right. I sent in a boy, and got back a young man. Thanks J and staff for your commitment, dedication, time and talents :)

My two sons Justin and Connor attended JRob technique camp as 9 and 10 year olds they loved that camp and asked to attend the JRob 10 day camp in Iowa for more of a physical challenge ending with the half marathon. Justin improved his wrestling by 10 wins and just missed a state entry in a true-second match my younger boy Connor broke his clavical but was still able to rehab and make a run at state falling short of placing by 1 match, I have no doubt that without JRob camp neither boy would have seen the success they did, they both were very inspired by JRob and his staff I hope your camps continue to see this type of success and inspire more youth to wrestle at 150 percent for each match. Thank you JRob for being a inspirational figure in wrestling through the years, with the teams and camps you have coached at.

Two of my sons did the OR intensive camp and thrived on the challenge, discipline and consistency. Joseph did the camp for a second year, "because I did not get the black hat the first year and I want to get the black hat". It was great to see a kid set a goal and give it his best to achieve that goal as Joseph did receive the black hat.

Wrestling is an excellent sport and builds discipline and character. That being said I wanted my son to attend the JROB 10 day Intensive Camp, for improvement in wrestling but more importantly to have him succeed in an extremely challenging environment to learn what he is capable of. My son received the coveted "I Did It T-shirt", a feat he'll remember for the rest of his life. A mind and body stretched beyond it's current state, never regains it's original dimensions. Matt won 5 matches in 3 years of Junior High wrestling. His Freshman year he had more wins than losses; big improvement. He attended JROB after Freshman year. His Sophomore year Matt injured his shoulder right before regionals and was out for the year. A kid he beat took fourth at sectionals and went to state. His improvement is a testimony of the effectiveness of a JROB camp. This year Matt is doing another 10 day camp: 5days technique and 5 days competition. Matt will make it to state next year. Send your son to JROB, not just to become a better wrestler, but to become a higher functioning young person that is limitless in potential in every area of his life!

Truly a life changing camp. If you are a wrestler that wants to improve or just someone who wants to find out what they are made of, do this camp. Everything learned goes past the mats and applies to everyday life. Get out there and you won't be disappointed. Not trying to say that this camp is for everyone because it isn't. It is for those who really want to achieve their goals because 28 days is a long time. Trust me though, there won't be a more satisfying feeling than finishing the camp on the last day.

Consumers beware they are marketing and selling a 10 day combo camp, that is no more than about 7 days of actual instruction. I'm not sure if they do all the camps like this or if this just happened to be the camp in Chico, CA (2018). I understand there is always administrative overhead to consider but that in no way should be considered as part of the instruction OR marketed and sold that way. Shame on you J Robinson and company! You're website talks about instilling and teaching values, but where's the integrity in that? Call it what it is: a 7 day camp and price it accordingly. Potential customers,.....remember, this is a "for profit" business and that is quickly apparent. JRob and Co are quick to take your money, but slow to respond or provide correct location specific information when you need it. J Robinson didn't even make an appearance at this camp, so maybe the current directors lack the necessary administrative oversight needed to facilitate his vision (?). There are other less expensive camps available that are true to their word, and you get what you pay for.

In 1985 & 86, I graduated from J's 28 day camp. Everyday, since then, I have used the things taught to me while being there. I can not emphasize what a great experience this could have on your young person. J is an extraordinary person, that can leave his finger prints, on the rest of your life! Matt

Its hard to calculate the impact this camp's experience had on my boy. That said, i know it was meaningful and sustaining. I am grateful for the opportunity to have sent him there and i am proud of what he accomplished while he was there.

Sent my son the summer before he junior year. It was a life changing experience he will carry with him forever. He absolutely took in the whole experience and applies it in his daily living.
