UFC GYM Honolulu

This gym is absolutely disgusting. Every single morning I come in, it looks like this — water leaking onto the floors, puddles everywhere (serious slip hazards), overflowing trash cans, dirty bathrooms, and clearly no consistent cleaning being done. The locker rooms are just as bad — broken doors, poor maintenance, and overall neglect. It feels like nobody is taking care of this place. And they charge $150 for a “premium” membership? This is a joke. I have attached photos, and I will be posting them across Google, Yelp, Apple Maps, and every platform I can find so future members know exactly what they’re signing up for. I cancelled my membership today. Worst gym experience I’ve had.

I went to this gym for over 3 years. I paid thousands of dollars in membership fees despite the 45 min to 1 hour parking wait time. Recently had to quit the gym over $40 dollars in predatory fees that has been explained incorrectly to me for months from various employees behind the desk. I had also been in the day before and asked the employee behind the desk to delete my debit card and gave her another card to use which would be easier for me to dispute more predatory fees. Well after revoking authorization for my debit card the next day my card was used. The manager was finally able to explain things correctly to me when I complained. When I wasn’t ready to accept said answer the manager showed a level of restraint in her attitude that reflected one of a new young employee. I had also paid for the month but apparently when you cancel your membership it is instantly revoked, so if you do decide to quit you’ll have to double pay for another gym. But hey I guess $40 dollars in fees is worth the loss of almost a $1000 a year in membership fees. Great business model for I should also add that my friend also quit this gym due attitude from the managers. Save your money and go place else with more professional management, your just a number at this gym. Fully waiting for the standard response given to every other complaint on here

I highly recommend UFC Honolulu, and Coach Jean in particular—she is truly exceptional at what she does. I began working with Coach Jean following my rotator cuff and bicep tear (shoulder) surgery. During a time when I couldn’t train the way I normally would, she encouraged me to stay active and positive, which made a huge difference both mentally and physically. That motivation was invaluable during my recovery. Once I was released from my sling and cleared by my doctor to train legs (five weeks post-operation), Jean welcomed me as a client. Over the next six weeks, she demonstrated incredible creativity and expertise, designing effective workouts with smart, safe workarounds. We started with lower-body training and gradually progressed into more full-body work as my recovery allowed—all while ensuring I felt confident and protected throughout the process. I also committed to following her nutrition plan, and the results truly spoke for themselves. Jean explained that clients who are open to nutrition guidance see the best outcomes, and she was absolutely right. Throughout our training and nutrition plan, I lost 8 pounds total—while still feeling strong, supported, and energized. Coach Jean has the rare ability to push you toward your full potential while making sure you feel genuinely cared for. She consistently checked in on how I was feeling, monitored fatigue levels, and adjusted both training and nutrition as needed. Her attention to detail and commitment to her clients truly sets her apart. I’ve already encouraged several coworkers to work with her, and I sincerely hope more people get the opportunity to experience such a caring, results-driven coach. She is the perfect balance of motivation, accountability, expertise, and heart. The photos I’m sharing include workouts she designed (I jokingly called her “MacGyver” 😄) as well as my weekly check-in photos, which she used to track my progress and fine-tune my plan along the way.

At 71 years old with ongoing lower-back issues, I wanted to lose weight safely while maintaining and hopefully gaining muscle and strength . Working with Coach Jean Bukoski has been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my health. She designs training that is thoughtful, safe, and effective, but just as importantly, she brings positivity, support, and encouragement to every session. I always looked forward to our workouts because she makes you feel capable and cared for. Coach Jean isn’t just there for you in the gym, she’s truly invested in your success and well-being every step of the way. Choosing a personal trainer is a very personal decision, but I honestly believe anyone would benefit from training with her. I can’t recommend Coach Jean highly enough.

My husband signed up to this gym on a temporary basis while working in Honolulu. Upon signing up he was told by Juan that they were doing a promotion where there was no annual fee. He was also told he could cancel anytime before the 24th of the month, knowing he would only be on island for two months, although he was in fact charged the annual fee, and upon trying to cancel, well before the 24th, he was met with a rude employee who told him he was going to be charged anyway. My card was in fact charged even after cancelling. My card was used to sign my husband and one of our employees up, and thus far has had about $1000 in charges over the past two months. He has tried reaching out with no answer. He has left voicemails with no returned calls. A lot of one star reviews mention this same treatment. They are not honest, and we have been completely ripped off. I will be filing a dispute. Beware of signing up to this gym! Read the one star reviews!!!!
