Hawai'i Academy promotes lifetime fitness and physical activities throughout life. Try our active alternative to sedentary events. We think you, the honoree, and your guests will enjoy the fun, safe, educational experiences we offer. Work with our staff to design a unique event that educates and entertains your guests.

To arrange a Party or Celebration: (1) phone our office to reserve a date (most popular are Saturdays and Sundays 5:30-7:30 pm; holidays and days that no classes are being conducted are also available); (2) discuss party design and select the instructor; (3) print out the Party/Celebration Contract and mail it in (or drop it off at the reception office of the Academy) with a $100 or more deposit; (4) confirm with the instructor the specific details of the event and send out invitations with our Release of Liability/Permission to Participate Form attached; (5) identify the number expected to participate; and (6) have a great time.

We provide party/celebration activities for nearly all age groups from 2 to 100 yrs.

Costs And Information

Many event offerings are possible and contracts are flexible but the most popular format is a 2-hour birthday party for which we charge $10 per participant ($230 minimum). Additional time, if available, can be contracted at proportional pricing. (The event is not booked until we receive the signed contract, a $100 deposit, instructors are confirmed, and the event is put on the Academy calendar. Deposits can be made over the phone by credit card, mailed, or brought into the gym. Appointments not confirmed and booked (contracted) by seven days prior to the event will be released to anyone else interested in booking that date. The balance of the account due must be paid immediately following the event. Gratuities are made directly to the party instructors and are greatly appreciated.
Participants must be at least 2 years old and screened by Dr Max if older than 65 years. If participant is 3 or under they need an adult assistant.
A 20% discount applies for Academy members and repeat contracts.
Adults (usually parents) must sign a release of liability if they go on the floor and participate in any way. Consider having adult participants in their own group at the same time as the kids do their party (an additional instructor is needed). Parties booked on holidays or gym closures are subject to availability and an additional fee.
