Wow, what a strong, technically sound and positive dojo! We are visiting from California and trying to stay in shape for upcoming competition. This dojo allowed my daughter to attend practices and she gained so much knowledge and experience! We couldn’t have asked for more. The sensei’s are strong and positive -very helpful. Thank you Hawai’i dojo!!
My daughter has been getting more serious in judo and decided to train while on vacation. Hawai’i Judo Club welcomed us as visitors and she had an absolute blast. They train hard and focus a lot on fundamentals. Drills were great with focus on foot placement, snaps, and made it fun with kuzushi games.
We look forward to coming back to Hawaii Judo Club. - Emma and Sara (7N7 Judo and Jiujitsu)
