"Mixed martial arts champion Egan Inoue has teamed up with “Hawaii Five-0” star Alex O’Loughlin to teach two days of self-defense seminars for women next weekend at his new Egan’s Fit Body Boot Camp training center in Honolulu. The self-defense seminars will be taught by Inoue and his fitness student O’Loughlin, who plays Steve McGarrett on the CBS television drama. The seminars on Nov. 16-17 mark the grand opening of Inoue’s new 3,000-square-foot Moiliili gym at 2700 S. King St., building A. The price to participate in one of the 90-minute self-defense seminars is $300 per person, and 100 percent of proceeds will directly benefit the Kapiolani Medical Center for Women and Children. O’Loughlin has been involved with the expansion of the gym since the get-go, Marcia Inoue recently told PBN. “The neat thing about it is that Alex O`Loughlin from ‘Hawaii 5-0,’ one of my husband’s private lesson students, loves design and architecture, so he spearheaded and designed the whole gym with our input,” she said. Egan’s Fit Body Boot Camp’s new facility replaces Inoue’s former Manoa gym, which outgrew the former 700-sqaure-foot space. Read more about Inoue’s growing business here".
