When I was looking for an instructor for my ten year
old son Hunter, Ronn's name rose to the top. Hunter
and his friend Avi Laird love the time they have with
Ronn. Not wanting them to have all the fun, i also
started training. I could not be more impressed with
Ronn's Jiu-Jitsu skills and his teaching style.

Ronn Shiraki is, hands down, one of the best
practitioners/instructors of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Hawaii.
His extensive background in Judo, Wrestling, and B.J.
J. shines through into his teaching methodology and
techniques making his school most certainly a
Fighters' Club T.V. pick!

Ronn Shiraki is a great Jiu-Jitsu Instructor who is very
passionate about Jiu-Jitsu and very good in passing
on the Jiu-Jitsu he has learned from the Gracie Family.






Gye Nitta
Head Instructor of New Hope Jiu-Jitsu
Ronn Shiraki is by far one of the most gifted Brazilian
Jiu-Jitsu instructors hands down. Either competing or
teaching, you will see a masterful blend of wind, water,
and fire combined with Gracie Jiu-Jitsu techniques.
Thank you Ronn for sharing your love and knowledge
of this powerful martial-art.

Ronn embodies everything you look for in great
teacher. He is highly skilled, humble, and is a monster
on the mat!

Ronn Shiraki is a naturally gifted Jiu-Jitsu practitioner.
His sparring on the mat, Gi or no Gi can only be
described as genius.  As an instructor he is very
professional and meticulous in the teaching of
techniques.  I promise you that your Jiu-Jitsu game will
improve ten fold.  If you are just beginning there is no
place better to start.  This guy is the Bruce Lee of Jiu-
Jitsu.

Ronn and I trained countless hours together on the
Gracie competition team in Utah. He's not only a tough
competitor, but a talented and generous instructor. His
Jiu-Jitsu technique and experience can benefit
grapplers of any level.

I have been involved with Gracie Jiu-Jitsu for the last
fifteen (15) years – competed in numerous
tournaments as well as sponsored a few of them –
trained with all of the Gracie Brothers and Professor
Helio Gracie – was an original investor in the Ultimate
Fight with Rorion Gracie – In addition, I have had
extensive personal training with Relson Gracie.  

Throughout all of these experiences and times, I can
make the statement with great respect that Ronn
Shiraki is the most competent and complete Gracie
Jiu-Jitsu instructor outside of the Gracie Family I have
encountered.  I watched him train the Kaneohe Team
kids to be so precise and exact with their techniques
that they became a “powerhouse” of winners in all of
the tournaments they entered.  Ronn has a great
method for teaching what I consider is true Gracie Jiu-
Jitsu – “hard-smart training with technique practiced
over and over”.

I believe in Ronn’s ability so much that I have my son
train under him and ONLY with him.  

I recommend Ronn Shiraki’s private lessons for
anyone who is serious about learning and/or
improving their Gracie Jiu-Jitsu.

Best and most technical instructor I've ever trained with.

You know the saying, "People who can't do, teach."  
Well, Ronn Shiraki is the complete package.  He is the
best teacher of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu I have ever
experienced and a fierce competitor as well.  Ronn
uses easy to understand examples, while teaching
complex technique.  Ronn stands alone as a teacher
because his teaching style as well as his own Gracie
Jiu-Jitsu technique, flows and is seamless.
