Your instructors will learn your strengths and areas for improvement and work with you to achieve your goals. They will push you, but since they know your limitations, they will work to make sure you do not hurt yourself. Safety first! I have a disability. In addition, I am - oh, choose your descriptor - Rubenesque, fluffy, more-than-plump - okay, you get the point. You do not have to be perfect. Pilates will stretch and strengthen everything (including your brain) so it's great for EVERYONE. This is not a place where you need feel self-conscious. The important thing is to attend consistently and work hard. I can't believe how far I have progressed over the years. Others who have end-stage osteoarthritis in both knees like me are using canes and scooters and wheelchairs. I credit my instructors at Upside-Down Pilates with helping me to become stronger and remain mobile. If I can do it, believe me, you can do it too, with the help of the instructors at Upside-Down Pilates. No excuses - get up and get over here!

I have taken a few groundwork "drop-in" Pilates classes with Lisa Org and she is fantastic!!!! Lisa…read morehas years of experience as a dancer and as a Pilates instructor. I've taken a few Pilates classes at the gym (specifically 24 Hr Fitness) before and they were completely different then what Lisa teaches. Lisa's groundwork "drop-in" Pilates classes ranges from 3-8 students only! Gym classes are just way toooooo big and instructors do not have the opportunity to work with each individual correcting posture and techniques. I honestly didn't really understand the concept of Pilates or the reason for this fitness (through taking it at 24 Hr Fitness), but with Lisa's training and knowledge, I now have a better understanding and appreciation for Pilates and the art of core workouts! Lisa is incredibly knowledgeable about Pilates, dedicated to helping you with your fitness and is a great person to know. She teaches group Pilates but is also available for one-on-one classes, either groundwork or with equipment.

I tried a class for free on a whim thinking there's no way I'm going to drive to town regularly just for a workout. I loved the first class so much that I went once a week for the first month (June). I decided to upgrade to twice a month in July, and saw really good gains in my strength, so for August I'm trying 3 classes a month! There are various classes and schedule times available. Membership packages come in monthly packs of 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, or 24 classes. I'm glad I joined right before the prices went up a bit. The prices are still very reasonable, especially since I was once an Orange Theory member $$$. I stopped going to 24 hour fitness over a year ago because of covid, and it's so packed in there all the time that it would give me anxiety even pre-pandemic. I love that all of the classes are women only (I've only taken one class where one guy showed up other than coach Justin). The only coed class is technically the Biceps and Curls class. I'm excited for more classes to be added on. Classes are generally limited to 8-10 people, with some classes being more full than others. My favorite classes are the Booty Camp and Booty Building classes. They will be moving in a few months to a bigger location. My dream is for there to be a Kapolei location so my lazy self doesn't have to drive to town anymore. They do follow Covid protocols and masks are worn during class with hand sanitizer and disinfectant wipes available. Bring a towel!

I'm surprised this gym doesn't have a lot of reviews, so I guess write one. I was actually driving…read morenear the auto parts store and I noticed this garage that had a giant boxing ring in the back and a lot of different types of punching bags. Curious, I stepped inside and saw two guys in the ring with headgear sparring with each other. I also saw above me on the walls these giant pictures of all the fighters the gym trained. I was greeted by Coach Phil who looked a bit intimidating at first, but was very nice guy. He talked about how most people don't even know there's a boxing gym in Aiea, but said they were legitamate none the less. Going on to say that unlike other gyms boxing gyms where guys would have ego and start beef, BoxFit is about respect and honing your skills in order to get better. Whether you're an absolute beginner or an experienced competitor, Coach Phil said we're all learning new things everyday at our own pace. He said if I'm curious, come to a class (first one's free). If I like it, I can join. If not, no sweat. So I came the following Tuesday evening. Coah Phil said he normally swings by the gym during late evenings around 8pm so I would be trained by Coach Jazelle. I recognized her from one of the fighters pictured up on the walls. Like Coach Phil, I was also bit intimidated by her at first but eventually I learned she was also nice. Before the class started, she taught me the basic punches like the jab, stright, hook and uppercut. She said I need to remember those punches. I also noticed that the age of the participants were quite varied. Some looked to be in grade school, some looked to be only a few years younger than me and there were also a few who looked to be older than me. It was a really diverse group of students. So during the beginning of the class, Coach Jaz told us to get in our stance with our hands up. She called out certain punches by their assigned number and we were to perform those punches. At times she would demonstrate the correct form for those punches and tell us to do them again. We would do this for about 10 minutes. Next we would follow a certain curriculum that's written on a dry-erase board. They would be activities like performing combinations on a heavy bag, practice punch timing on the speed bad or the double-end bag, running, box jumping and many other exercies. We would spend about 3 minutes per station. Even though it was only a 45 minute class, it feels like a full body workout. Of course I decided to join the gym, but there are different tiers for the membership. You pay to either go once a week, twice a week or an unlimited number of times per week. How this works is let's say you sign up for the once per week membership and you go to the morning class on Tuesday. After that you feel like you have enough energy to join the evening Tuesday class. You can do that. Once a week meaning you can train all you want for one day out of the week and you can do all the classes or free training on your chosen day. With other gyms like 24 Hour Fitness and UFC gym, they can cost an arm and a leg while also feel quite boring. With BoxFit, the initiation fee is a lot less and I actually feel motivated to go to this gym. I'm never bored there. I want to learn to punch faster, slip punches, increase my stamina and my agility. Also if you want to box competitavely, they do that there as well. You would just need to talk to the coaches. Everyone has their own skill level and their own pace so don't feel frustrated. The coaches will help you. For anybody who wants to try something new and get active, I would highly recommend checking this place out. You can sit on a foldable chair and observe the classes to see if they're right for you.

Coach Phil is very knowledgable and works great with boxing enthusiasts of all ages. During the class times you find men, women, and children of all ages working out together. Coach Phil has a great attitude and the gym has a great non-threataning atmosphere. The price is also great too! At only $75 a month for unlimited training, you can't find anything comparable like that on the island. A great workout that keeps you motivated and coming back for more several times a week!

I've always wanted to try reformer Pilates but never found the time. Imagine my surprise when I saw…read morea sign for Pilates No Ka Oi, right across the street from Schofield Barracks. After retiring from the military, I wasn't really working out anymore and wanted something that would help strengthen my core without being too hard on my joints. I signed up for the beginner package and had three one-hour sessions with Ana. Every review I read (with the exception of Michael M- which I think is a fake review) about her and the studio was absolutely accurate. She's an amazing Pilates instructor and just a genuinely kind person with great energy. You can tell she's passionate about what she does, and she took the time to teach me the proper techniques instead of rushing through the workouts. The pricing is fair, and I really appreciated the smaller, more personal feel of the studio. It's by far a better experience than what you'd find at a national chain Pilates studio. You never feel like just another client. I have been moving so haven't had the chance to go back, but once I'm settled in my new place I will go back consistently. If you've been thinking about trying reformer Pilates, I highly recommend Pilates No Ka Oi!!!

I can say 24 hour gyms are a great asset to those trying to get fit, however this gym has a real sanitary issue. I'm sure certain people come in at different times during the week to clean the locker-rooms, bathrooms, etc....however, I think what this gym really needs is some plumbing renovations. It seems like every time I go into the women's locker-room a toilet has overflown which, as you can imagine, means the locker-room smells, isn't very clean or useful, and makes you never want to go in there. They also have a problem with roaches and other pests. I mostly workout at night so I always have to deal with them blocking my path, crawling in corners of the locker-room, etc. Ugh...so gross. The military needs to hire some terminators to keep the pests at bay. Other than the above aforementioned, this gym gets the job done and I usually get to watch my TV shows with full volume since other gym-goers are few and far-between.

Muneca is not only highly motivating and kind but she also prioritizes overall women's health (mental, physical, nutritional, hormonal), which sets her apart from other coaches. Her exceptional knowledge, and understanding of fitness and of women's health makes her an invaluable resource. Muneca is constantly mixing things up! She tailors her workouts to the specific needs and challenges that women face, which has been incredibly empowering. Munecas' workouts, are nothing short of incredible! They are challenging, they produce incredible burn and build results. What sets Muneca apart is her dedication and genuine care for her clients, with her guidance, support, and expertise I have reached remarkable benchmarks (in my short 2 weeks of working her). Her commitment to my success, has contributed to my overall well-being, both physically and mentally. She understands each individuals immediate & long term goals and checks in on her app to make sure your are tracking and working to meet them. Looking ahead, I'm extremely excited to continue my training with Muneca. Her unique approach along with her motivating demeanor, makes each workout intense and enjoyable.
