It was awesome being back on Oahu this past week. It felt normal again. Now back in Hilo. Can't wait till Saturday!!

If you are free to help out tonight, George & Maile need some extra hands to help move mats for their tournament. The mats will be already there in a U-Haul truck, all we gotta do is unload them and carry them into the gym & set them up. Last year it took us 45 minutes to do.

What: Mat movi… Continue

Hey Team HK, I'm asking a favor to all that can help out on November 27th, Friday @ 5pm. Our 50th Anniversary Championships is being held on Saturday the 28th, so we need help to set up the tournament mats. We need assistance in bringing the mats into the gym and then puzzling them together to make a total of 7 rings. Last year, Sensei Todd rounded up about 15 members and the place was set up within 45 minutes. Thanks guys... -George Kotaka

All Class will still be open.

Added the TokBox Video Chat App which is located in the menu list above. This App allows members to video chat with one another. Enjoy!

HAPPY 22nd BIRTHDAY MY BAHDY!

Update on Kyle "THE OX" Olivares.
Kyle is recovering from shoulder surgery right now & will be back in action in a few weeks.

CBS will be showing Strikeforce on Saturday night for FREE! Our friend Jason "MayheM" Miller will be fighting Jake Shields for the Strikeforce Middle Weight Championship belt. The fight will be held in Chicago so I'm not sure what time it will air here in Hawaii.

Also on the card is Fedor vs Brett Rogers as the main event of the night.

Hey all, I just started working on the Big Island during the weekdays and already I am bummed that I cannot train with all of you. I certainly look foreword to Saturdays when I am back on Oahu and in class. The last week I was in LA attending the UFC (man what an awesome event!!!) and I also made time to train and take private lessons with Marcio "Tinguinha" Mariano. His Jiu Jitsu is a modern take on the OG moves. I got to work extensively on the Half Guard (my favorite position). Tinguinha real… Continue

CONGRATULATIONS to Zack Pang! He defeated his opponent Dennis Kam with a reverse arm lock from the cross-side position @ 2:20 in the 2nd round. There was a heckler from the other team who tried to get in Zack's head with a lot of trash talk, but it didn't phase Zack at all. We will post the video Nora took lat… Continue

Have a Safe & Happy Halloween!

Zack Pang's fight in The H.A.P.A. event is tonight at the Waipahu Filipino Community Center. He should be fighting around 9pm so come on down to support him. Todd & Chris will be there working his corner. More info can be found at… Continue

The dojo is almost out of water bottles to sell, so please bring your own drinks to the dojo tonight.
