VLOG 2 | My Entire Weekend: Hanaloa Open Mat, Costco, Nails & Maui Grappling Competition and more!

From Checkmat Kihei

June 11, 2026

Come spend an action-packed weekend with me in Maui, Hawaii! In this vlog, I take you through my entire weekend filled with Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training, competition preparation, island life, and everyday adventures. From intense sessions at the Hanaloa Open Mat to getting ready for the Maui Grappling Competition, you'll see what it takes to stay focused, train hard, and balance life on the beautiful island of Maui.

This weekend was all about Jiu-Jitsu! I trained on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, sharpening my techniques, rolling with teammates, and preparing for competition. Along the way, I also squeezed in a Costco run, got my nails done, explored Maui, and enjoyed some of the little moments that make island life special.

If you love BJJ, grappling tournaments, martial arts training, Hawaii vlogs, fitness lifestyles, or behind-the-scenes competition prep, this vlog is for you. Follow my journey as I work toward my goals on and off the mats while sharing the real-life experiences that come with living and training in paradise.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
