Esaki Jiu-Jitsu Academy

“I dropped in a couple times while on travel and had a great time at the gym. Coach Evan and Ian provided excellent instruction and I had helpful partners to work through the techniques. Rolls were also solid. I thoroughly enjoyed my brief visit and I hope I have the chance to stop by in the future.”

“Great class and great instruction. I was visiting from out of town. Professor Esaki welcomed me in to drop in and join his class. He is very knowledgeable and ran an great class. All of the guys in the class were very friendly and welcoming. Great rolls. If you’re ever on Kaua’i, go check them out.”

“Took the morning nogi class while visiting the island. Great gym. Highly recommended.”

“The first place I visited after landing in Kauai! The atmosphere is amazing and easygoing yet knowledgeable. It’s was a pleasure to learn some K-guard concepts from professor Evan and started applying them right away when got back to my school. The guys are fun to roll and very welcoming. Definitely go and check it out ! 💪😎 Oss!”

“Esaki Jiu Jitsu is the place to go whether you’re a local or vacationing. The owner is so friendly and welcoming, the Fuji mats were immaculate, and the instruction was detailed. I really liked the structure of the class. It wasn’t too fast, but I was still able to break a sweat and have fun. The members were welcoming and I never got the feeling that I had a target on my back. I’ve been to a few places where you get that feeling but this was far from it. Overall, I highly recommend training at Esaki. This is amongst my favorite BJJ schools I’ve been to while on the road. I look forward to being able to train here again!”
