Carlson Gracie Jiu-Jitsu

Such an amazing vibe here! So thankful for the opportunity to learn from Christian and his team. Steve's no gi classes were fire too. One of the highlights from my time in Lahaina. Oss.

Christian was very welcoming. We're just visiting from LA and wanted to have a little training while we're on vacation. I'm glad we chose this school. The class was fun and we learned some new cool techniques that are different from back home. We also had a couple of rounds of sparring and this was the highlight of our trip!

Drop in for some rolls while on vacation in Maui. Prof Christian was awesome. Great gym with great vibes. Would love to visit again when I'm in town. Thank you so much

Visiting from Austin and wanted to roll while on vacation. I mainly do no gi so only am going on no gi days. I love this school. They are just ramping up post covid and so the class sizes are running around 10-12. This is amazing compared to my usual class sizes of like 40. The instruction is very personalized, sometimes almost like a private or small group lesson. I wouldnt expect this long term as maui starts to open up.

Christian teaches some classes himself and even when he isnt, he will chime in. You can ask questions and he will show techniques. He and the other instructors have already

Carlson Gracie Jiu Jitsu is the best gym on Maui. The classes are very well structured and you always learn something new while still building upon the core foundational movements. Many different belts to spar with. It is a tight knit community here who all train hard and help eachother a long the way. I came on vacation and brought my gi specifically to train again with these guys. I highly recommend you do the same. Even if you don't bring a gi, stop in on a no gi day

Best Jiu jitsu school hands down in Maui. My daughters have been training here for over 2 1/2 years and I trust Christian 100%. He is very cautious, respectful and very good at what he does. My husband has been training with him for 11 years. He teaches respect, passion and is the real deal. This is as real as it gets. You want to learn Real Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, this is definitely the place to come. He makes sure his students give respect in and out side the mats. He has a lot of passion for his kids and adults alike. His gym is clean and also provides cold water. He takes visitors happily

We had planned on dropping in for a class but a little altercation with some coral put that plan on hold.

Stopping by the school to catch the end of a class was still a great idea as Professor Christian Grandi was so friendly and inviting. While his guys rolled he sat and talked to us about their training schedule, the school in general and various other things. Our family felt very welcomed by everyone there and we can just tell that they are the type of Jiujitsu family we would like to spend our time with here.

It was very apparent that safety for his students is number one to Christian

Great training! I dropped in for a no-gi class, Professor Christian and his students we very welcoming. Professor took us through warm-ups then showed a kimura to choke sequence. At the end of class he answered some questions about specific positions. I stuck around for the 4 rounds of sparring afterwords. Training partners were great! Definitely worth the drive from Kihei!

What an amazing place to train. Great instruction by Christian and they treated me like family. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the stretching to the techniques to the sparring, overall I definitely recommend this school if you are visiting. I can tell Christian truly cares about his school, his students and his visitors. Thanks again. OSS!!

Took a gi class while on vacation and it was great. Class started with stretching, the techniques and then sparring. very welcoming and friendly for drop ins. Christian is very knowledgable and very clear in his instruction. I think half the class was drop ins from different parts of the country. Students in class included every rank from black to white.
Parking was easy and easy to get to location.

I took a morning class with Christian and his team. He asked me what I was having trouble with and we drilled those techs. I rolled with most everybody in the class once. Higher belts were kind enough to really work through moves with me and Christian made sure to start me in positions I had asked him questions on during class.

It was a great experience as a Jiu-Jitsu tourist it was one of the better experiences I've had.

While on vacation in Lahaina, I stopped by to see the school. Professor Christian invited me on the mat to train with them. Of course, I didn't have my belt or gi with me, but they provided a loner for me to use. It was nice to do a little rolling between ocean swims and waterfall hikes. Good group of guys.

Trained here during my vacation last year. They openly accept visitors, call ahead before you stop by per proper dojo etiquette. The instructor is a great guy and the students were very welcoming as well. They offer several classes, if you're visiting or a local that wants to start training, this is a great place overall from my personal experience.

Wonderful time on the mat today with Coach Christian Grandi. Early morning session, he was really flexible about working around his schedule.
Very detail and observant, corrected any flaws my technics. Spent most of the time training with my back on the mat, 5-6 technics.
THANKS FOR A GREAT SESSION, CHRISTIAN!

I love to travel, and when I do, I always train wherever I go in this world. It's nice to find schools that are so welcoming when you are just a tourist. The instructor here is very knowledgable but also very personable and friendly as well. I will definitely tell all my friends to come here when they visit the island. I would recommend this school to anyone of any age, gender, or size :)

I was hoping to get a roll in on vacation and thankfully found 808 Jiu Jitsu and Master Christian. He has classes everyday in the morning and night with both gi and no gi. Found him to be a perfect instructor and leader and would train at his academy if I lived in Maui. The other students were all levels and friendly training partners. looking forward to returning on my next visit. If you need a break from the family, come train at 808 BJJ, to help you relax. Aloha
