I am so glad my friend introduced to me to this gym 2 years ago, so far it has completely changed my life for the better, the coaches are very helpful and taught me every day after class for a number of hours, they teach because they love the sport and are very knowledgeable about it. Since then me and my little brother have been going every day and I have enjoyed every part of it, they spend a lot of time teaching beginners and everyone at the gyms would be eager to help you as well. It’s a great community and a judgement free zone I cannot recommend a better gym from the bottom of my heart.

I recently past my 1 year mark at Ohana Warrior, and I couldn’t have been happier with my journey so far. Whether you’re just starting out with martial arts or have prior training, Ohana will definitely give you a Muay Thai experience. I often stress and get anxiety pretty easily, but Ohana has been my greatest outlet to really relief me of that. Ohana also helps me stay fit, keeps me sharp, and boosts my self-confidence overall. My biggest takeaways from this gym have been:- Fast paced/high intensity (CARDIO)- Sense of community, everyone’s so friendlyMembership also includes BJJ classes from competition level coaches on top of Muay Thai (no additional/separate membership needed), just an incredible value overall. I’ve met some great friends through Ohana, and I’m excited to see how the gym evolves over time

I have a blast working out here, making great friends and getting great teaching from all the coaches. I havent been able to lose one pound in seven years before coming here. Now down 14 pounds in about 8 weeks, while having fun doing it!

It's a disgrace this place has less than 50 reviews and they have been open for over 9 years! This is a great Muay Thai and Jiu Jitsu gym. There are ZERO egos in this gym. Let me repeat that. THIS GYM HAS NO EGOS. This is so important in a Martial Arts gym as you don't have to worry about someone having animosity toward you for whatever reason and then they purposely try to break your arm or something.Everyone is respectful of one another, but they will still push you to get better. The BJJ coaches Jeff and Sean are very patient in explaining the nuances of different techniques and as a bonus are funny too. They are also very humble and will let some students show different techniques if they have extensive judo or wrestling backgrounds.The Muay Thai coaches: Mona, Jake, JR, Mark, Eris, JuJu, and Adrian are also extremely knowledgeable and will push you to get better. If any of the coaches spot you doing something wrong they will come over and guide you.All in all this is a great gym for all people. There are professional fighters in this gym, but based on how they carry themselves and how humble they are you'd never guess they were. If you are looking to learn self-defense, become a professional fighter, or just meet new interesting people as you get in the best shape of your life you would be doing yourself a disservice if you joined any other gym besides Ohana.

Great place to train- coaches are amazing and so is the community there. They offer so much for both beginners and advanced fighters! They're friendly and humble but always make you work. I've been coming for a few months and I'm glad to be a part of Ohana.

I’ve been going to Ohana to train in Muay Thai since July 2022 and it’s been such a great journey so far. Everyone I train alongside with is very welcoming and willing to help each other out. Coach Mona and JR as well as substitute coaches with Mark and Adrian have been very helpful in guiding and pushing me to improve on my technique and skill level. Starting out was a bit rough at first but now I’ve grown to love this sport and I am now in the best physical shape of my life!

I have been training there since 2019, I started off doing the Muay Thai and quickly learned how out of shape I was, I did have a very long back ground in taekwondo. I met Jeff the BJJ coach at Muay Thai class and asked him a few question. I showed up the following Thursday and really found out how out of shape I really was; and fell in love with BJJ. The coaches; Jeff and Sean, make jiu jitsu fun and entertaining and they will get the best out of you without you even realizing that is what they are doing. From all the coaches and all the students make you feel like you are at home with your family. The one biggest thing I can take from Ohana is that there is no crazy ego's or toxic personalities, I have seen that before at other gyms. I have been around a couple of other BJJ gyms, this is the most welcoming one I have ever stepped foot in. Every Friday my daughters ask me "are we going to the gym!", like I said this is my second home. Stop in one day and it might just change your life, it did mine.

I joined Ohana Warrior in January of 2022 to practice jiu jitsu. I was nervous at first because I was intimidated by the sport itself however, the coaches and fellow students are welcoming, patient, and so knowledgeable. Coach Jeff and Coach Sean have fostered such a great and empowering culture. This place easily became my second home. What started off as a interest has now evolved into a passion and it’s all because of this gym, the coaches, and the people!

I am currently going to Ohana Warrior to learn BJJ. I am about a month in, and am really loving the program. The coaches and fellow students are very patient, understanding, and eager to teach you. I originally decided to join BJJ to get into shape, but now getting into shape is a byproduct of learning BJJ. Happy to be a part of the Ohana and looking forward to growing with everyone in the class. Mahalo Nui Loa Everyone!
