Ivan is a high level instructor and has a great IQ experience on striking.

Through out the year's training at Legacy Muay Thai my Muay Thai has developed tremendously, I feel confident with my skills and experience from what Coach Ivan has taught me.

I'm learning a martial art that is both beautiful and lethal and has improved my health in terms of durability and longevity. I got t-boned 3 years ago at a high rate of speed, not survivable by some. The controlled impact from our classes prepared my body to withstand the trauma. And when I was most consistent with their training, my pulse rate got down to 47 bpm. At 65 years old now they accept my limitations while encouraging my progress. They attract awesome students too!

It's almost been two years since going to my first class at Muay Boran Hawaii and it has nothing but positive for me. I've learned so much about the art of Muay Thai and about myself. Since joining back in 2022 I've lost about 18 pounds and myself confidence has grown a lot. So far my experience has been amazing! Kru Dan and Coach Chad give each and every student in the class attention and showing all of us the right and correct technique. The best part is Kru Dan and Coach Chad are always willing to give the extra time and effort for everyone before and after class to work on technique or just talk about the art of Muay Thai.

People don't go full force to knock you out so don't be scared. All I can say is don't quit and stick in there if you want to learn; your body just needs time to adjust. Everyone is cool and goes to local mma events together, just like one big family. Most martial arts places don't give out prices on their websites, but I can assure you HMC has some really good ones. As for the cost, Leandro's BJJ is $70 I think and around $95 for monthly classes at HMC. If you are a student it's $80 which is what I pay monthly. There is a $50 initiation fee (every mma place has this). Drop in fee is $20 I think. It's a good deal compared to other places if you ask me; training on the mainland ranges from $100-$210 monthly. You can pay by cash, check, or monthly bank deposit. No BS contracts. The no gi BJJ comes with the price so you can learn grappling in addition to kickboxing if you want to do mma. I know some people who've just done this and have been successful in the ring. I prefer more instruction so I take gi jiujitsu. The schedule on the website hasn't been updated so check my picture for an updated version. HMC also has a branch in Kaimuki operated by Chris on Sunday only which you can pay a drop in fee if you're signed up with HMC Kalihi. They have grappling and kickboxing classes. There is also a Branch in Wahiawa operated by Haru that meets MWF at noon and evening and has Leandro Nyza BJJ on Tues/Thurs. They teach boxing, kickboxing/muaythai, and mma classes. Haru is also a native Japanese speaker and frequently has students from Japan coming down to learn from him. People are still signing up even though the new UFC BJ Penn Gym opened! The UFC Gym might offer all the mma classes you will need, but I still come here because the boxing/kickboxing instruction is more advanced for my level and the quality of training partners and instructors are much better, taking my game to the next level.

Our Lineage is: Yip Man - Leung Sheung - Ken Chung - Ben Der - Wayne Nakamura - Mark Leong and continuing Wing Chun training under Sifu Ben Der. We are learning a soft style approach to Wing Chun that emphasizes proper position, structure, relaxation and sensitivity which allows a smaller person to effectively defend against a larger and/or stronger person. In this style, we always assume that our opponent will be bigger, faster and stronger than us. We also spend a lot of time on basics in order to build a strong foundation. We all train together (there are no belts or separate grade classes) and advanced students regularly work out with beginning students. The class is relatively small and taught very casually with the necessary information given freely, but learning this style requires a lot of patience, self-discipline and careful thought. Our class has moved from its original Kapahulu Center location and officially resides at the McCully District Park, 831 Pumehana Street, Honolulu, Hawaii. However, classes are currently being held in the Pearl City area from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and on Saturdays from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm. Alternate class times and virtual classes are available. We do not have class on Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year.
