Martial Arts

I do muay thai and the coaches are awesome. The prices are a little high but it's very much worth it.

Went to visit GBU due to a promo and wasn't sure what to expect. Met Gavin and Professor Elias who were very welcoming and friendly. After a bit of small conversation they invited me to hangout, watch the current class or join them if I choose to do so. Decided to give it a go in the fundamental class and was glad I did. Professor was very patient in his instruction and quite detailed, which is vital when you are beginning or continuing to learn or reinforcing what you already know. After the class we sat down to talk and he went over the various programs they offered and their rates to give me an idea what it would be like should I decide to train with them. Even though I chose to utilize the promo they had going on, neither he nor Gavin made me feel as if I were compelled to stay with them, and only would have me to do so if it felt right for my situation. This is my 3rd week going and I can say that the classes are very friendly, with no egos getting in the way of learning, and both Professor Elias and Gavin have been consistent in their teaching and sharing of knowledge with the same passion and degree of details from that first day entering their school. So far everyone has been great too. With women, children and adults, they offer programs to meet all degrees of experience and an environment that is fun for everyone. One of the attributes that I've come to recognize in the short time I have been training there is the family-oriented atmosphere. Each week they have posted different activities for their members, family and friends for upcoming months. Movie night, a Bar-B-Q in a couple of weeks, or other events that bind the group and fosters growth among each other. There may be other academies that do this, although I am not sure if there are, but you can be assured that if you train here this is what you can expect all the time.

My wife has Ray as her personal trainer. She has shed weight and her mood has soared. I attended an introductory Kajukenbo session and found the atmosphere of the Gym/Dojo to be welcoming and calming. If you go to this gym and try hard and keep focused you will receive the professional and warm support of the staff. Highly recommend this Gym for women and teens as a retired Social Worker I have observed the respect both groups deserve provided by an empathetic yet demanding staff.

The best equipment around and super clean.

my son started classes right before his 5th birthday. He went from crying on his first day to competing at a national level 4 years later. The instructors are very patient and great at not only teaching martial arts, but teaching the children discipline, camaraderie and respect for all. I highly recommend Oahu Taekwondo for parents who are looking to put their children in a martial arts program.

World-class instruction from Relson Gracie 1st generation black belts. While classes offered are jiu jitsu, kickboxing and escrima, self-defense is the core of the academy, Relson's curriculum stresses keeping you and your family safe. Not only are these disciplines fun but it is an unbelievable workout. And unlike many other current modes of exercise, this one is actually practical and could one day save your life. It can be intimidating walking into a jiu jitsu/kickboxing school but everyone at O2 leaves their egos at the door and are there to help each other learn and become better at the art as well as in life. Come down for a free introductory class and see how fun and addictive it is.

The best place on the island I have found to train whether your looking to lose weight/get in shape, learn self defense, or compete in tournaments. They have a family friendly environment with BJJ classes 7 days a week, Insanity classes, Yoga, and Muay Thai Kickboxing.

Hawaii's longest, most active director/instructor. Teaches kids very nicely
