This is something my wife has always wanted to do so once we planned our trip to Oahu to celebrate…read moreour 16th Anniversary, this was on the top of our list of things to do. As a certified yoga instructor herself, my wife would be hard to be impressed but she definitely was. Julia, the owner, was ready to go when we got there and clearly explained everything. Her instructions were clear, she was kind and encouraging and she took excellent pictures. Although it was challenging, it was a lot of fun. The lights under the paddleboards, the starry night sky and the cool water added to a great experience. Thank you Julia! Keep up the great job! We will definitely do this again next time we're in Oahu.

Kapolei Aquatic Center is newly opened and offers a whole lot!…read more A division of American Renaissance Academy, Kapolei Aquatic Center is more than a dive shop. Don't get me wrong, they have tons of dive gear and will help you find the right gear for what you do and will help you get the right fit, but they also have a huge retail space. It's not crowded and it's easy to see everything. It makes it super comfortable and easy to take your time. They also offer swimming lessons for the super young through adult. And if you want to take a dive class, they offer both technical and recreational classes. The pool is on site too. The parking lot is huge. GPS takes you to the wrong side of the building, so take the road down to Midway and turn from that side. Enter in the first entryway-the others are blocked off.

I had an awesome time on the mats, picked up some really cool techniques, and enjoyed training with such a great group of people. I'm already looking forward to next year's Hawaii trip, and next time I'll definitely be training for more than just one day! 29th Gracie Barra academy in the books. Every academy I visit reminds me how strong the Gracie Barra family is around the world. Mahalo for the hospitality. See you all again next year!

If you want to genuinely feel that Gracie Barra one team one family vibe this is the Gracie Barra you need to go to. Professor Justin went above and beyond to make my kids feel welcomed and a part of the family. We tried another Gracie Barra on Oahu on their opening day and we did not feel welcome. Aloha Stadium upholds all of the Gracie Barra philosophies, curriculum, and uniform policies. It's extremely professional and really upholds the Gracie Barra way. My children do Jujitsu to help them become better people, learn how to defend themselves, and learn how to get back to their community and they learn all these things here at Aloha Stadium.

From the head instructor (Mike Fowler) to their newer students, everyone was kind, respectful and friendly. The jiu jitsu was amazing! The head instructor is phenomenal and has a knowledge and experience base that is top tier! I participated in two classes and observed a youth class. The instructors for the youth class were actively engaged and had the children's attention. The children were happily participating in both instruction and situational training. The facility is clean and organized and also conveniently located close to many beaches. The adult class was well ran with great instruction. The students were easy to work with during technique and allowed you to work during live rolling as well. The vibe is amazing and this is definitely a spot that makes you feel blessed to be a part of the jiu jitsu journey. I will definitely be coming back!!

Thank you Doug for getting me on the right track. Mr. Doug took the time to make sure that…read moreeverything that I purchased was right for me, fit and finish wise. I am impressed that he was not just pushing me out the door with gear that wasn't quite right for me as has happened at other stores. Also recommended some spots to use my new gear at.

My daughter has been a student here for a couple years and she has improved greatly! The location isn't too bad. The only downside is that parking can suck depending if there's an event happening at the community center. The staff at Leahi is amazing. Ashley, who works the front desk almost always and helps with registration is amazing. She's so personable and treats everyone like family! She and the pool staff made accommodations to help my daughter feel comfortable during her first lessons without a parent. The staff in the pool has been amazing and accommodating. Kiki - who graduated HS and is no longer working there, really helped my daughter with her confidence and really helped her literally every step of the way. Sage was so fun and very enthusiastic! Ashley (in the pool) also helped my daughter gain confidence when my daughter was really swimming on her own. Koa is awesome and really makes you feel so welcomed too! I also do commend the owners as well. I was at the pool one day when there was a troubled parent/grand parent asking why her student couldn't move up levels. Even though this customer was clearly frustrated and maybe a little angry with the owner, the owner explained why so calmly that the requirements aren't just there just cause - it's for safety too!! Open swim is always nice, usually Saturdays at 4pm. It does get crowded so either come super early or late!

We are extremely disappointed with the lack of communication, poor class management, and…read moreinconsistent evaluation standards during this session of Beginner II. Having enrolled my son here for multiple sessions, this experience fell far below basic expectations. Mismanaged Instruction & Staffing: Although the class was assigned two instructors, a single disruptive student monopolized the lead instructor's attention for the first several weeks. Consequently, the rest of the students were relegated to playing around with an assistant instructor rather than receiving structured instruction. Flawed & Missing Evaluations: The mid-session progress report evaluated students on deep-end skills during their very first couple weeks in deep water, making the assessment premature and inaccurate. Worse, no final progress report was ever provided at the end of the session, leaving us completely blindsided when told our son was recommended to repeat Beginner II. Moving Goalposts & Poor Administrative Support: When I called for clarification, the representative repeatedly backpedaled and changed their explanation. They ultimately claimed that opening eyes underwater without goggles was a mandatory passing requirement--a rule that was never communicated to parents, and one that contradicts what we observe in the next level up, where students routinely wear goggles. If promotion is strictly skill-based, the facility must ensure adequate staffing so high-need students do not drain instructional time from others. Parents deserve clear expectations, continuous updates, and actionable feedback--none of which were provided this session.
