Team Hawaii, an organization committed to teaching awareness about health, fitness and nutrition to Hawaii’s youth, and its founder Johnny Ligsay Jr. are excited to partner with MMA as a way to promote healthy living. “ It was my volunteer work that led me to create the Team Hawaii,” says Ligsay. “Many of the teenagers that I would train (weightlifters) were interested in bodybuilding but had no events to get them started in Hawaii. As a veteran in bodybuilding, I felt it was my duty to provide a professional, yet amateur friendly, family event.”
