From the reviews
This is the first time I've signed up for any type of Jiu Jitsu gym. I've been participating for 2 months and am impressed with the warm down to earth training atmosphere. It is very family oriented with various classes.
Lokahi Jiu Jitsu is an amazing gym. Professor Rudy is dedicated to teaching, as well as fostering a family and team community. My whole family now trains with Lokahi and every class we attend, we learn in a safe and excellent environment.
Great studio. Very knowledgeable coaches. Very friendly and wants the students to succeed.
There are not enough words to describe how thankful I am for Lokahi Jiu Jitsu. We have been welcomed into and awesome family and team. I could not be more excited to train and represent such an amazing academy.
New to BJJ? Start at Lokahi Jiu Jitsu
Lokahi Jiu Jitsu comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never rolled or set foot on a mat, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or flexible to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale the intensity to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard rolling — reputable gyms build fundamentals (positions, escapes, and basic submissions) for weeks, live rolling eases in gradually, and tapping early keeps every roll safe. Third, all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out, and leave your ego at the door. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first BJJ class at Lokahi Jiu Jitsu
Nervous about walking into a BJJ gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic positions and escapes with a partner — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many gyms lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi (or a rashguard and shorts for no-gi) and a mouthguard. Live rolling eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
