Details: Aloha Roll Academy was born out of a vision. Ever since Gracie Jiu-Jitsu was created in Brazil, perfected by the Grand Master, Helio Gracie, and brought to our island of Maui by our patriarch, Luis " 'Limão " Heredia, students have enhanced their quality of life, overcome personal struggle, and found new meaning and camaraderie through its pursuit. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu was created to allow a weaker, less athletic person, to be able to defend themselves against a much larger, stronger opponent. However, it became much more than that. Many students have found BJJ as a way to build confidence, overcome adversity, and find a place where they feel welcome and accepted, like Ohana. Professor Gilberto Castro, a black belt under "Luis" 'Limão " Heredia, shared this vision and set a goal to bring all the benefits he learned throughout his journey to black belt, to the local community of West Maui. He wanted to create a place where anyone willing to put in the time and effort, could grow as a person, and discover something inside themselves they never imagined possible. Professor Gilberto also has a special passion to see women empowered through the art of Jiu-Jitsu and strives to create an inclusive atmosphere for all to feel welcome. Lastly, He has a deep desire to build a better community through the mentorship and development of Keiki programs and competition teams. If you would like a safe place to challenge yourself, set goals and reach them, and learn to defend yourself with confidence, we look forward to welcoming you to the Aloha Roll Academy Ohana.
