Parallel parking! If you can not do it he will teach you how. I was terrible at parallel parking…read morecould not figure it out. Met with Jesse and I was able to parallel park on the first try. We practiced multiple times so I could really get it down and I passed my driving test on the first try. If you need help with any kind of parking for your test or in general I recommend him.

I'm absolutely thrilled that I had the experience of working with Jesse. It helped me so much to…read morefinally get my U.S. driver's license. I have a license from another country, but it is not convertible to American driving license, so I had to basically go through the entire process again. I honestly thought it wouldn't be a big problem... until I faced the reality. There were so many technicalities on the driving test that I couldn't pass it. To the point that I started to doubt myself and developed driving anxiety. That's when I realized I needed to try something different. I needed help from a professional. And that's how I found Hoku Driving School. That was one of the best decisions I've made. Jesse is everything in one person. Super positive, encouraging, and also very informative. After just the first lesson, I felt a big shift in my confidence. I stopped doubting myself. And it wasn't just feel-good talk -- he gave me very practical, helpful info that actually made me a better driver. But what really made the difference were all the little tips and tricks on how to pass the test. On top of that, he's just a great person to spend time with in the car. We talked about different things, he kept my nerves down. He was cheering me on till the day I had a test. I really felt like someone was on my side, rooting for me. It was absolutely worth the investment, and now I'm recommending him to anyone who's going through this process. Don't struggle alone. Just hire a professional and save yourself the tears and the stress.

We've had an awesome experience with this surf school. My daughter took a few lessons with Danny…read moreand Leonard, and now she's confident enough to get out there on her own--which says a lot about how well they teach. They're patient, encouraging, and really know how to break things down for beginners. What stood out most is how much they genuinely look out for their students. Even when she's out surfing on her own, they still keep an eye on her and make sure she's safe. You can tell they truly care, not just about teaching surfing but about building confidence and keeping kids safe in the water. Highly recommend for anyone starting out or looking to improve.

my children have been going to this Halau for a little over a year. We do not live in Waianae but I…read morepicked this Halau because they seemed down to earth, friendly to very young children and had a Hawaiian and Christian influence. We could not be happier we joined. Kumu Derek is an excellent instructor. The children love him and his Kokua staff who help him instruct the classes. He is fun with the children, yet teaching the meaning behind the songs and dances never escape him. He does expect the best each child can give and always starts with prayer. Hugs are a common place and the children in various classes are friendly and humble. I didn't know there was such things as clicks and mean girl syndromes in other dance groups as I have never experienced this. My oldest daughter is quit shy and introverted and she has shown initiative in the past year through her experience with this Halau. Kumu Derek and his wife Yoko are always pleasant and as busy as they are, always take a moment to say hello to all the parents and keiki. Ke Ali'i o ka Malu is a gem in Waianae that builds the esteem of its members through Hawaiian dance and music

Booked my 50 minute massage with Meki online 1/23. The…read moreschool was difficult to find. I used google maps and it kept taking me to the Fire Station. I looked at some pictures on Yelp and figured out where it was. It's the big pink building Hawaiian paradise coffee. The school isn't listed outside the building. Drive around back and you will find it. I must say they have some serious CV rules. You wait inside your car and call the number listed on the door. They take your temperature and ask you questions about coughing , fever etc. He also said I needed to wash my hands for 20 seconds. Both parties are required to wear mask. He did give me one of those flimsy mask. I'm a rule follower and abided by all the rules. The massage was fine. He's said he was new and learning. I felt the price and level of service seemed fair. Probably $35 would be fair. They also charge an extra $5 for something I'm not sure. I would recommend it and remember they are students. I did leave a nice tip. He was very professional and seemed very sincere.

So this just happened.... I received a call from KMI this morning and they said Rani can't see me…read moreon Monday because she does not work on Mondays and I said I have it scheduled for today Saturday at 1pm and also put it on my Calendar that Rani made over the phone with me yesterday. The receptionist then said "oh ok that makes sense" then said we will see you today at 1. Then the same receptionist called back 5 min later saying my appointment has to be Monday and I was ok with that but would have to change the time because of a conflicting appointment and we agreed for 3pm. I called back to make sure because I then remembered what she said about Rani not working on Mondays and wanted to make sure with Rani this would be ok. Rani answered and was upset and basically said they do not play games and said "now what" angered. So I said I do not want to be seen by them and will go somewhere else. I meant no disrespect and was confused on their scheduling and why they called me in the first place. I was pleased with Rani during our first conversation , she was very nice and informative. I hope she has a better day than today and hope she understands I met no disrespect. I also hope to find someone who can help me with my back problems through the VA... I was really hoping for help today my lower back muscles have been aching really bad over the past month and pain killers are not working. Sorry if their system reflects differently and I had no problem with going in on Monday but that seemed to really upset them that I had to change the time from 1 to 3pm due to my schedule. So sorry to have to upset anyone but they did call me first....

I went in with prior knowledge but I left with an increase understanding of ACLS. The class was nice and comfortable. Our instructor Pua allowed us to learn at our own pace while being patient with the group. She was attentive and down to earth. Even got to learn about her roles and job in the medical field. We did lots of hands on work. We were able to ask questions throughout the course. We felt confident while learning. We also had some fun! I would definetly come back and renew my course again and taking my BLS renewal course as well. Thanks so much FEARLESS CPR!
