We asked a long time family friend and Jiu jitsu practitioner where we should go. He recommended HNL Jiu Jitsu. We took her on a Tuesday, after the Holiday... And she loved it!! She is the one telling us that she wants to go everyday. Even after long and grueling days at JROTC Leadership Camp (645a-5p). Thank you Kayle and Jason (and all the coaches) for being so supportive and awesome! You folks break down the steps, and the kids have fun!

They meet the kids exactly where they are, keep things fun, and still teach real technique at a level they can understand.

It feels like they're teaching life skills as much as Jiu Jitsu, and that means a lot to us. Highly recommend for any parent looking for a positive, age-appropriate martial arts environment!

Full disclosure: this is a biased review because I have been training here for almost 5 years now…read moreand am an official member of the #wushuohana. That said, if you are looking to train in contemporary/traditional external wushu or internal wushu (taiji quan, bagua Zhang, and qigong) on Oahu, this is a good place to do it! The Wushu Center's team of volunteers do their best to provide a wushu training atmosphere full of aloha spirit. We offer quality wushu instruction to all skill levels, with after school programs suitable for children 5 and up. Contemporary competitive wushu is the biggest draw for the younger students, as it is often featured in the movies and TV (Jet Li, Kung Fu Panda, Avatar: the Last Airbender, Jackie Chan) and it is a fun and challenging way to get and stay in shape, make friends, and participate in an internationally competitive sport with surging popularity and modern appeal. Many older youths and adults also enjoy the "internal" wushu classes in Taiji Quan and Bagua Zhang (eight-trigram Palm), which offer excellent holistic wellness and fitness routines while also teaching and building useful and effective self defense skills. The Hawaii Wushu Center is also one of the few places in the US that you can find authentic Yin Family Bagua Zhang, which is pretty special, if you look into it. ;) Ok, I'll wrap this shameless plug up now with another welcome: Aloha E Komo Mai: come join our Wushu Ohana!

My physical therapist (PT, outside of Orthosport) is very impressed with the progress I've made with Cassidy because she incorporates my PT's recommendations into my workouts and adjusts every session according to what my body needs that day. My balance (which was embarrassingly poor when I first started training with Cassidy in 2023) has improved significantly and my daily pain level has gone down drastically! With my unique medical needs, it has been challenging to find a gym and a fitness trainer I can trust fully, particularly because I experienced recurrent injuries caused by working out for many years. Even though every workout still kicks my butt, I always look forward to seeing Cassidy because I never have to worry about getting injured and I know I'll feel so much better after our sessions. I am incredibly grateful to have found Cassidy at OrthoSport. My quality of life from when I first started training with her to now is like night and day. Thank you, OrthoSport, for providing medical fitness training for people like me. It has truly changed my life.

A customer's experience with such personalized service usually banks on their relationship with their therapist. In this case, we are fortunate to be aligned with Summer. She's a pro - patient, clear in her exercise instructions, encouraging (yet firm), and flexible with some of our last minute scheduling issues (Niu Valley is quite a commute from Moanalua). The facility is right behind Jack in the Box on Kalanianaole Hwy; the light at the left turning lane can try your patience. Parking during lunch hour can be a little challenging; fortunately it is very large parking lot shared by other businesses. They do a nice job with scheduling/changing your appointments, and the email reminders really do help (as does the $50 penalty if you cancel in less than 24 hours). All in all, the experience of going through this form of PT along with the physical exertion without impact to your joints is definitely worthwhile!
