Visiting in town for a few weeks. Gym was incredibly welcoming and staff was super friendly. I got the opportunity to meet Max, which was awesome and a check off the bucket list. I will definitely be stopping in for more training before I leave Honolulu!

Just started training and attending the intro to jujitsu classes. I’ve only been in three classes so far with technics but I’ve already learned so much within that small amount of time. Sebastian is an awesome teacher, Down to earth guy that really cares for the students. Whenever I have a question or have trouble with understanding certain drills/moves. he gladly guides me in the right direction and teaches me first hand on how to improve. All while being patient and understanding especially if I don’t get something right the first time. Solid instructor.Matt was also really helpful and welcoming. provided me with all my questions and concerns in a timely manner over the phone and in person. He kindly let me sit in on the advanced classes to check it out and made me feel excited about jujitsu.The people in the technics community are down to earth and make me feel right at home. Great school. 100% would recommend coming here if you’re interested in jujitsu.

All levels of athletes train here and are very welcoming and respectful. Nice, clean facility with plenty of mat space. Would recommend this gym to anyone interested in martial arts at any level.

Just on vacation and needed some work, dropped in to Legacy Muay Thai. Both staff and students at both venues were very welcoming and down to earth. Instructors were clear and precise, delivering step by step instructions. Been doing striking for over 5 years and I still learnt something new today in the beginners class. Amazing experience 😊

I started my Jiu Jitsu journey last September so I’m still fairly new to the sport and there’s always more to learn. My oldest son and I definitely learned from Rylan Lizares and the guys at Gracie technics Jiu Jitsu in Honolulu while we were visiting the beautiful island of Oahu all the way from Texas. Can’t thank Rylan enough for the hospitality and the opportunity to come train with them. If you’re ever in the area definitely check them out!!! Mahalo bro 🤙🏽

As someone who’s been on the fence of training jiu jitsu for months now, I would 100% begin my journey here at Gracie Technics if I lived in Oahu! I visited the gym with my fiancé and was able to observe the noon class. The ambiance of the gym is incredible. It’s calm and welcoming with an undercurrent of deep respect for martial arts.I could tell the instructors were invested in each student and the student’s progress, making sure each student understood the technique that was being taught during the class. Rylan would call for pauses during drilling to reiterate specifics of the move when he notified students struggling with the technique. This type of attention to detail and investment into the students is perfect for young children and beginners.I encourage families in the area to visit the gym and meet the instructors or observe a class. You’ll be impressed with the cleanliness of the gym and the no-frills, all-encompassing martial arts instruction. Highly recommended!
