Monthly women’s self-defense and the Andre Galvao seminar

All news & eventsEvents

On Friday, May 31, 2019 we held our second monthly Women’s Self-Defense class, 5:30–6:30 PM. The class is designed for regular monthly attendance — learning new techniques, drilling old ones, and building confidence in girls and women of all backgrounds. No experience or fitness level required.

Two weeks later, on Friday, June 14, Andre Galvao held his jiu-jitsu seminar at Island Jiu-Jitsu. It was billed as a once-a-year seminar, not to be missed — and all jiu-jitsu practitioners were welcome, regardless of school, age, belt color or gender.

Seminar registration was through our online calendar. The women’s self-defense class still runs on the last Friday of every month — now 6–7 PM — and your first class is free if you live on Oʻahu.
