United BJJ Hawaii is a phenomenal place to begin or continue your jujitsu journey. I became…read moreacquainted with the owners, legendary Professors Bruno and Angela Pucci, during their process of becoming an affiliated We Defy Foundation gym. From the meet and greet, I was hooked on their gym dynamic--a welcoming gym full of experienced individuals working together to progress in the art form. Classes are well-structured with lessons followed by live roll applications. The coaches at the gym are very involved, and it shows through the positive learning environment their gym has. I travel a lot for work, which provides the opportunity to visit many gyms. Though I am still very junior in BJJ, this is by far my favorite gym to train at! 10/10 this places goes above and beyond.

As a family with little to no experience with combat sports, we weren't sure what to expect when we…read morejoined United BJJ, but the coaches made us feel comfortable from the start. My children love training here--they've made great friends and gained valuable skills in Jiu-Jitsu. Beyond technique, they've developed confidence, respect, improved concentration, and learned self-control, discipline, and perseverance--skills that will last a lifetime. The way the coaches teach is exceptional. They explain techniques in a way that is easy for children to understand, making each lesson fun and engaging. This has helped my kids grasp the fundamentals quickly while enjoying the learning process. A few months ago my children participated in their first tournament, and Coach Maraya went above and beyond to support and encourage them, making the experience truly memorable. This type of dedication from the coaches is what makes this academy so special. Additionally, the convenience of the location is a huge plus. There's plenty of parking, and the academy is inside a 24-hour fitness facility, which means I can get my own workout in while my kids are training. We're grateful to be part of this community and highly recommend it to anyone seeking a positive, family-friendly environment to learn BJJ.

The AC always seems to be broken whether it's the room or the outside workout area. I'm so tired of working out when the air is too thick to breathe. We have to open the doors to get some air circulation in the room and that's not enough! We all pay a lot for the gym membership and deserve better! Other than that, the coaches and staff are bomb! The cycling instructor AJ is the best and I now understand why it's so hard to get into her class every week!

From day one, both the students and the kickboxing coach Kurvon made me feel genuinely welcomed. As a longtime fan of Christian Lee, walking into this gym took courage (he's a two-time world MMA champion with ONE Championship) but it instantly felt like the right decision. Supportive, humble, and high-level energy all around. Prodigy training center has a wide-range of students, from competitive fighters to kids, young, & older adult hobbyists (like myself). They also have Merch for sale & a cafe on the first floor as well for guests to wait while their kids partake in class.

Everything from the facility, equipment, community, staff members and coaches makes you more eager to come back daily. The facility and equipment is second to none. Having a downstairs gym for members to use, while upstairs, multiple training mats and rings and a variety of equipment to utilize while you train helps set their gym apart from others. They also offer quality equipment and apparel to purchase. From the sign up day I've felt welcomed, the sense of camaraderie and tight knit community makes it family friendly and always a pleasant experience. The staff members do a great job handling any questions and concerns you may have, making either starting or continuing as a member that much easier. Again making you feel welcomed. Each coach and trainer is not only more than qualified at teaching their martial art but, carries passion and love for the sport which I appreciate. You are able to join at any type of personal experience level, beginner through professional and benefit because of the standard they set to encourage growth physically and mentally. Lastly, if not clear already 10/10 would recommend for any future members, family members, and friends. Truly a great experience!
