From the reviews

My son went there last week. He trained with Coach Anthony and had a blast! The lesson was reassuringly technical and well-structured. They spent most of the class working on the roundhouse kick first focusing on technique, with Coach Anthony circulating around the class to correct everyone’s posture and form,…

★★★★★ — Nathaniel, Oct 2025

Our time going back home after 16 years made even more enjoyable by finding a great home gym to train to. Training at Mango Tree Muay Thai was absolutely a blast. Kru Rich De Los Reyes and his coaching staff and team were all very welcoming. The training was great, very detailed oriented and as well cardio intense.

★★★★★ — Dabig, Aug 2023

I came to visit Oahu for a vacation and I have to say that this gym definitely offers a real MuayThai experience. The owner Rich along with his students and staff are welcoming people and they have created such a safe and awesome environment for people who not only wants to train and have a good workout, but to learn…

★★★★★ — Nigel, Feb 2024

Great gym for beginners or experienced fighters. Atmosphere of hard work. They provide gloves and other gear if you need. Had only few classes during my vacation but learned a lot of new things. Each class different combinations and drills.

New to kickboxing? Start at The Mango Tree Fitness and Martial Arts

The Mango Tree Fitness and Martial Arts comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners class is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or coordinated to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale every drill to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable gyms build the basics (stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads and bags) first, and any contact eases in gradually under a coach's control. Third, all fitness levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.

Your first kickboxing class at The Mango Tree Fitness and Martial Arts

Nervous about walking into a kickboxing gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics — stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads or a heavy bag — not hard sparring. Go at your own pace and rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: comfortable athletic clothes you can move and sweat in, and supportive trainers. What to bring: water, and hand wraps and gloves if you have them — many gyms lend loaner gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves and wraps (and shin guards once you start sparring). Sparring is optional and eases in gradually, once your basics are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

Kickboxing is a contact sport. Warm up, pace yourself, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
