    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. The programs fits everyone from professional to amateur novices. Thier gym is fully equipped from bags to weights. Just checkout thier website. If you're in Hawaii, Oahu they have 3 places. Pearl city, Hawaii Kai and thier HQ (Hombu) which Kaimuki. Dont call just show up (down load thier app to check schedules) This place is highly recommended. We are looking forward to coming back here again. Kru Rich , Coach Anthony, Keane and the other coaches that also taught my son - Thank you. To the rest of the Mango Tree Bro and sis. Thanks for the warm hospitality. Mahalo and Aloha.

    I'm only on the island staying in Waikiki for the week, but wanted to find somewhere to train and bring my son while I'm here. I was very pleased to find The Mango Tree. Rich is a class act and so is his team. They exude the true aloha and Muay Thai spirit and were very welcoming. They made me and my son feel right at home. Rich's students have great technique because they obviously focus on fundamentals, which is what I find very important. I definitely recommend them and look forward to training with them when I return.

    Back on Oahu for vacation and wanted to hit a Muay Thai gym. Everyone recommended this gym, so today I tried out a class. Called in first and coach Rich gladly said I can come to class. Everyone was welcoming and friendly and of course, learned some new techniques. Glad I came to this gym. Much Mahalo’s

    Legit and authentic Muay Thai gym in Oahu. My wife and I were visiting from NYC for vacation and wanted a place to train. They have plenty of classes available for all different levels throughout the entire day. The coaches are very knowledgeable, and skilled. The members are all friendly, and we felt at home immediately. Highly recommend training here.

    My name is Marley. I'm 22yo, and from Hawaii. I have wanted to learn to fight my whole life, but I either did not have access to a good gym or couldn't afford it. I joined Mango Tree Muay Thai 2 years ago and couldn't have asked for a better fight gym! The coaches consist of Olympic qualifiers, national champions, and professional fighters. The coaches will take you as far as you want to go! Whether that be fighting competitively, getting in shape, or learning self-defense. In the two years, I've become a proficient Muay Thai fighter, gained confidence, quickly and easily got into shape, and found lifelong friends. I've trained at a handful of different fight gyms across Hawaii, and from my experience, Mango tree is the best gym in all of Hawaii. The best part of mango tree is the community! In today's world, it's hard to find as close nit of a community that will have your back as Mango Tree. If I could award more than five stars, I would. Looking back, I can honestly say joining Mango Tree Muay Thai was one of the best decisions I've ever made.

    I had initially met Kru Rich at a coaches clinic in the Bay Area a couple of years back, so I knew that I had to come and train at The Mango Tree when I came to Oahu. I had previously trained at other “gyms” on the island, but they didn’t really have the focus on Muay Thai that I was looking for. As soon as I walked in, I was warmly welcomed by his staff who showed me around the facility and helped me get ready for the class. The Mango Tree’s classes were very structured from warm-ups to drilling/pad work. There are different levels/classes depending on your experience, but regardless of what your looking for, whether fitness or competition, Kru Rich and his team will help you reach your goals. Much mahalos to Kru Rich and his crew! Highly recommend!

    Was on island for a while to take care of family. The Mango Tree took me in like I was one of their own. Everyone was welcoming and the training was top notch. Best place to train Muay Thai on Oahu, hands down. Really happy to see people so dedicated to developing Muay Thai on the island and representing Hawaii abroad. Thank you again for everything and hope to see you guys again soon. 🙏🤙

    If you're looking for one gym you won't regret joining, it's Mango Tree! One word to describe this gym is "Value." As soon as you enter a Foundations (beginner) class, you'll notice the quality and effort put into each and every class. Every coach is very accomplished, humble, and very knowledgeable in Muay Thai. I've been with this gym for 10 months now and not only have my skills grown, so has the value of the gym. It has opened 2 new locations since I joined and you are welcome to join classes at any location. They also added new classes to fit your needs and add to the value to your membership. I've recently looked at pricing at other gyms and for its price, you are not only looking at better value but also high, top shelf quality of classes taught by awesome, dedicated coaches. It's so good it's fun and addicting. You'll forget you're training and only be excited to go to the next class. It's really that good! Both coaches and members are very "chill." I have yet to meet anyone overly aggressive or arrogant. The coaches have taught us to go at the pace of your partner in level 2 classes so you'll never feel over whelmed. I'm 38, if that helps. This place makes me hope to keep training until I'm 50. I normally don't write reviews but this is a place I visit often (3 times a week) and wish to see it grow into something even bigger than it is now. Since I joined I lost 15lbs in the first 3 months and got a 6 pack for the 1st time in my life. I eat what I want so it's 10lbs now lol.

    While visiting Hawaii, I found the mango tree at last minute and ran in there several minutes after class started. Coach Rich let me jump in ( even though I wouldn't even let me come in late if I were him) and one of his students helped me catch up. I could tell, since I've had so many coaches, that coach Rich pays special attention to his students and has a vast amount of knowledge in Muay Thai as well as Fitness. I am so thankful allowed me into that class - I got a good sweat and learned a new technique I had never tried before that seems to be effective. I intend to go back because it was such a cool Vibe and such friendly people. Thank you, y'all.

    Ive always wanted to train Muay Thai and I’m glad it got to be here at Mango Tree Fitness and Martial Arts. I contacted them via email they responded super quick and was able to fit me in on short notice. Great atmosphere and great trainers. If im ever back in Hawaii I’m definitely coming back! T

    I was home on O'ahu for a few weeks, and I wanted to still train while on vacation because I wanted to eat all the food! Kru Rich runs a really safe space for all levels, and his coaching staff are very patient and knowledgeable - everyone is friendly and welcoming. Newbies get solid attention, and experienced folks get pushed. Go check them out! I'll be back when I'm on da 'aina again.

  • 5/5 Makana K. 5 months ago on Google
    I train at the Hawaii Kai location which opened about 6 months ago if I'm not mistaken. I love the atmosphere that the gym is growing into, as I have been training there for 4 months and remember when it was me and 2 other people in most classes. Coaching is top tier, and coaches are very attentive, even in bigger classes. I've just recently started sparring and was a little intimidated at first, but everyone that goes to sparring is super chill and not trying to rip your head off. everyone kind of feeds off of each other and learns from each other. I would recommend this place to anyone who is looking to get into any combat sport or martial art. All the coaches make it a point to teach us to respect each other, by knuckling up your sparring partner or pad holder, and even teach us how to enter the ring properly. At the end of every class they have us "wise up" and say sawadee kap(hope i'm spelling that right) overall there is not enough stars to rate this place and love what Coach Rich is doing with it.

    This is the most amazing gym! Great teachers, great training partners, super high energy! Took an intro class and it was very clear explanations. Took a pad class as well, great technique!

    I left Hawai’i 4 months ago and while I have since found a new gym to continue training I still miss The Mango Tree. Coach Zach, Ant, and Pete were great teachers and it was through the Foundations classes I was introduced to this beautiful art/sport. They break down technique to make sure you progress without developing bad habits and genuinely want you to progress. Kru Rich is passionate about Muay Thai in Hawai’i and you can see it in his work and the energy in the gym. This may not be the only place to learn Muay Thai on Oahu, but it is Oahu’s Muay Thai gym. No matter what your purpose in training is, this is the place to do it. If you’re not sure because google is showing a whole list of results when you search “Muay Thai near me”, I hope this review is what helps you decide to come to The Mango Tree. Idk when I’ll be back in Hawai’i but I know when I am I’ll be going to the Mango Tree to train

    Walking into a muay thai gym for the first time can be intimidating, but from the moment I walked through the door I was made to feel part of the Mango tree family. The trainers and members are friendly and there's always a welcoming atmosphere at Mango Tree Kaimuki. The coaching at Mango Tree is some of the best thai coaching i've experienced. Rich is not only a skilled ex fighter himself, but also fantastic teacher who takes the time to explain techniques. The gym has a combo of beginners to fighters, so no matter what your level you get the attention you need. There's a real strong sense of community at Mango tree and everyone is encouraged to support each other and cheer each other on. Whether you're training for a fight or just trying to get in shape, there's tonnes of encouragement and motivation in every session. I can't recommend Mango tree enough. If you're looking for a supportive community, excellent coaching, and insane workouts, this is the place to be. Five stars all the way!

    I was here on vacation but still needed to do work for my upcoming amateur fight. My girl showed me this place and staff set me up right away. It was a little hidden but follow the signs , its worth it ! Staff & group was very friendly and i got some real good training in. Always happy to learn something new. Wish i had more time for more classes thank you , see you guys on the next visit!

  • 5/5 Vaian D. 1 year ago on Google
    All the coaches are chill and really know what they are doing! They also do personal training for muay thai, flexibility and muscle training as well if that is something you are looking for! I have done trial coaching with Nani and Moi who were both excellent and will be looking to try out more one on one coaching sometime in the future!

  • 5/5 Amber P. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place to train! Authentic Muay Thai with amazing coaches and instruction. The gym has a ton of classes and something for every level. I learned a ton in just my first time visiting. Really appreciate how welcoming everyone is! Highly recommend!

  • 5/5 lowendtork 2 years ago on Google
    Very excellent coaches who will give you a good workout and train you in practical Muay Thai techniques for self defense and sport. One of the best workouts I have attended and I have done Muay Thai in multiple states.

    I'm so happy I found this gym! Dropped in looking for a place to train for the week and got to work with one of their fighters/coaches who is fighting in Thailand soon. Everyone here is extremely passionate about Muay Thai so we had a lot to chat about after class was done. Looking forward to training here again! If you're in the area and looking for a real Muay Thai gym with high level coaching and a welcoming environment, check them out!

    I come to Honolulu every year, always wanna find a good gym to train muaythai. I found this gym from MINDBODY, and contacted the coach. Coach Rich is super nice, asked me to come in. Tried two classes there, i like the classes so much and had much fun. People in the gym are very friendly. If you wanna try muaythai, here is definitely a place you should come.

  • 5/5 Skye S. 1 year ago on Google
    Best gym in Hawaii to train Muay Thai, the coaches are very experienced, the students work hard, as well as a friendly and welcoming environment.

  • 5/5 Adrian V. 1 year ago on Google
    Dropped in last minute for a session, I'm Flight Crew who came in on short notice and Kru Rich let me in despite. Kru Anthony conducted the class and was really welcoming and chill. I've dropped in in numerous gyms through the country and this one had the chillest vibe around. Can't wait to train here again, thanks Mango Tree team for exhibiting the aloha spirit and supporting your local community. (Edited for typos and grammatical errors).

    This place is WONDERFUL and if you're looking for a place to train in the Waikiki area, look no further. Coach AJ and the owner Kru Rich treated us like family. We did a private session with Coach AJ and he made my son feel so comfortable learning some sparring tactics. The owners wife also works with individuals with overall MMA fitness and diets etc. For a phenomenal training experience, this place trains people in a fun, family oriented fundamentally sound environment. More power to and much Love to Mango Muay Thai and MMA fitness. Mahalo and MABUHAY mga kababayan!!!

    The Mango Tree is awesome, I have learned so much training here and they are so welcoming to new comers. They do a great job of making everyone feel like they belong and everyone there wants to see you get better!

  • 5/5 Rosa A. 4 years ago on Google
    Training at Mango Tree has been an awesome change in my workout. I do one on one training with Zach. He is not only patient but knowledgeable in what he is teaching me. It’s a great change of pace since my normal routine consists of going to the gym and running. My goal isn’t to enter fights, but more to expand on self defense skills. I’m excited to see how much I will progress in the coming months

  • 5/5 Hailey H. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 D T. 3 years ago on Google
    If you are looking to compete or just get in shape this is the place for you. Coach Rich has a great eye for talent and he really finds time for everyone here. They don’t just teach you how to fight here, we learn how to win. Love this place!
