I was recommended by my Jiu Jitsu Professor to visit Technics Jiu Jitsu and Legacy Muay Thai while I was out here in Oahu for vacation. I’d like to say they were so welcoming to my wife and I. It was a packed class for their advanced Jiu Jitsu, but I had a blast. I got plenty of drilling time and Professor Matt had us doing sparring rounds after. Friendly and welcoming environment for my wife and I. I would highly recommend anyone who’s local to join or at least try. It’s always intimidating trying to find a gym to attend, but this place reminded me of my home gym. I would recommend Technics Jiu Jitsu and Legacy Muay Thai to anyone visiting. Thank you Professor Rylan and Matt for your hospitality 🙏🙏

Great gym and training atmosphere. Professor Matt is very welcoming and is excellent at technique breakdown and application. If you are a beginner, I highly recommend the intro to jiujitsu. If you are an experienced grappler and are looking for some fun rolls, sign up for the advanced. If you are on vacation and wondering if waking up to go roll is worth it, trust me, it always is!

My brother and I came in for Muay Thai intro class for the first time at this gym. Matt was very chill and welcoming. Registration was quick and easy. The instructor, Coach Tyler, did great at instructing. Had hella fun with my brother today. We started off w/ some stretches then shadow boxing. Moved onto drills without a partner, then some drills on thai pad with a partner. Ended off with some drilling conditioning. Anyone who wants to do Muay Thai at this gym should/have to do the intro class first. Great gym layout and soft mats; perfect for anyone who wants to roll around without getting mat burn. Shower and bathroom accommodated.

Dropped in for a class because me and a buddy are visiting from Cali. Called the gym and spoke directly to Matt, the owner, super chill and super respectful and he told us just to drop in for the class that night. It’s been a while since I stepped on the mat but it was nice to come to a great gym on my first day back. I’ve been to several gyms back in the states on my Jiu Jitsu journey but there are few gyms that make you feel like home. Everyone was super welcoming and respectful. Gym was clean and the class was very detailed. Good amount of mat space for a packed house, but everyone got rolls in. Got to get a lot of good rounds in and so did my buddy. If anyone is in Honolulu or any where in Hawaii, this is definitely a great place to train!! Will definitely be back! Thanks for the hospitality and the great rounds 🤙🏽

The professor taught about the concept of effective distance and we worked on some techniques to reiterate this. I liked that he taught on a concept instead of just drilling in a submission so you understand what and why you're doing what you're doing.

Phenomenal instructional with even better training partners at Gracie Technics. I attended Gracie Technics after noon class while traveling for work, and the gym felt like I was training back home. The facility was nice with super clean mats and spacious areas to change. The bathrooms were really clean and well attended. One of the lead instructors, Matt, was very welcoming and easy to work with as we went through the waiver process and got ready for class. I have kids who train back home, and watching the environment and kids classes at Technics with Matt teaching, I would enroll them at Technics if I lived on Oahu. Any time I'm back in Hawai'i, I'll train at Gracie Technics.

Professor Matt walked us through some really cool advanced techniques for the first 30 or so minutes, then we spent the next 45 minutes rolling with everyone in class. Everyone was immensely friendly and welcoming. Everyone I rolled with was also a very high level jiujitsu practitioner so I was able to learn a ton in my one session. Thank you team!

I highly recommend Gracie Technics Jiu-Jitsu & Legacy Muay Thai. I'm visiting Oahu for a couple weeks from the East Coast and wanted to continue training and sharpening my skills while I'm away from my home gym (Pentagon MMA). Professor Matt quickly responded and invited me to come train with them. He introduced me to the other coaches and urged me to talk shop with them. I attended a Muay Thai class with Coach Al and will also attend Muay Thai classes with Coach Ivan Flores. The atmosphere is excellent. Instructors and students are all very welcoming and respectful. The facility is spacious and clean too. Being a father, I also appreciated that it's family-friendly, since there are students of all ages who genuinely seem to enjoy training here. I stayed after my class to observe the other classes and can say the quality of instruction is top-notch. Instructors are great about breaking down each technique and thoroughly explaining the reasoning behind them so students can improve their execution. Before I left for the night, Sarah suggested I get a picture with Coach Ivan, which was awesome! Drop in if you're ever looking for a place to train while in Oahu. I'm certainly looking forward to learning everything I can while I'm here and incorporating it with my own skill set. Thank you to the staff and students for taking in a stranger and making him feel at home. Oss! James Muay Thai Practitioner Kempo Karate Black Belt

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.

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!

Professor Rylan and Professor Matt are wonderful instructors. They have a vision for jiu-jitsu that is exemplified by their commitment and dedication to their students. They understand jiu-jitsu and are able to break it down to teach in a way that is easily digestible, no matter your experience level. They are also patient, ensuring their students understand jiu-jitsu conceptually to build strong foundations. I have known Rylan and Matt for close to 10 years and they are truly masters of their craft. The atmosphere at Gracie Technics is also very warm and welcoming. You’ll feel right at home as if you’re family. The gym is also very clean. The mats are kept in immaculate condition and are cleaned after every class.

Definitely a must if you train bjj and mauy thai a amazing place to train while you are away from home. You definitely feel like family and if you ever have questions then reply in a really quick manner and the details that you receive in class are clear and very technical. Very friendly and inviting coach Rylan and Matt are truly great instructors. I learned so much during my visit.

This establishment was a pleasure to visit and train at. The atmosphere was welcoming and professional, and the class schedule is accommodating and has something for everyone. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to train in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu or any other Martial Art. Can’t wait for my next trip to Hawaii to train with these guys again!

Decided to stop by at Gracie Technics while on vacation. I was really impressed by how well the gym is laid out and very friendly people I was able to train with. Anytime I'm at Hawaii Gracie Technics will be my go to gym to train BJJ!

I love the academy. Its been 6 months rolling there. The techniques are broken down really well. If you can get the technique down they're willing to help. The kickboxing classes are awesome as well. If you are looking to get in shape. And learn from a coach to multiple ufc fighters. Then this is the place for you

I researched all over the island and chose this school based on reviews. My 5 year old son expressed his interest in martial arts and I felt this would be a good fit. I initially called the school for a trial class and spoke with Matt. He was very welcoming on the phone and seemed eager to gain a new student. I told Matt that my son is on the Autism Spectrum Disorder and he stated he was very much so okay with that. Later that day, I took my son to the class and it was pretty rough. He was running around, not paying attention and being pretty disruptive. Which I understood. It's a new environment, he's not used to the structured class and he just wants to play and have fun. After the class, Matt appeared to be very annoyed and would not make eye contact with me when discussing future plans for my son. There was another instructor named Chuck who offered to give my son private lessons. I jumped at the opportunity because my son loved the physical aspect of the sport and it would still give him that one on one attention without distractions. We did private lessons with Chuck for a little over 2 months. The lessons were pretty rough at times. My son would like to play around, but he still paid attention and retained the information that he was being taught. The holidays were coming up and we told Chuck we would like to take a break and come back after the new year because we were going on vacation to the mainland. Chuck was ok with it. He expressed how much he adored my son and wanted to continue to teach him. He made it seem like he genuinely cared and wanted to invest the time. We return and I reach out to Chuck regarding starting lessons back up again and crickets. He completely ghosted me. I sent texts, no reply. Calls, kept ringing and go to voicemail. I even emailed the school, no reply. It makes me sad because my son keeps asking when he is going to go back and see "Mr. Chuck" and I have to tell him he cannot anymore. I just wish that if the school or any of the instructors did not want to spend the time with my son, they would just tell me that. I would have respected their decision more instead of them completely ignoring me. Seems a bit unprofessional.
