Mo Fit - Thanks for the sweat:) - Trainers Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

As usual always a pleasure to visit. Always working out with great people and coaches. Love it! Look forward to working out with all of you again! Hopefully sooner than later! Thanks again for always being so welcoming Debbie read more

Dropped in for a class while on vacation as I'm apt to do when traveling for business or pleasure. Of all the gyms I've visited, Kuleana was the most that reminded me of my home gym in terms of both the workout intensity and welcoming community. Ooli (sp?) Was a great coach and I enjoyed the other members. Not sure if I'll have another chance to drop in on this trip but there is always next time! read more

Friendly cute outdoor space for a good wod. Great coaching. Good place for a drop in location!

New to Kuleana. Very welcoming. Great feedback from the coach, Paul. Super workout. Most highly recommend.

I was vacationing in Honolulu and wanted to "drop in" to a local functional fitness gym. I stopped by Kuleana Fitness and was quickly greeted by Coach Mike and Uilani. They were professional, friendly, and made me feel right at home. For the WOD (work out of the day) I was coached by Chasen (Coach and owner) who ran the class well and gave me great tips on improving my movements. He gave great guidance to other "drop in" athletes and folks who were new to functional fitness. Overall, I highly recommend Chasen, Mike, and the rest of the staff at Kuleana Fitness. If you're looking for a high-quality, personalized fitness experience close to the Waikiki area. You won't be disappointed! read more

I emailed the evening before to schedule a time for judging during Open 2022 and got a response the following morning from Paul. He was very accommodating with my schedule that day as I wanted to get a workout and my score in that morning. I parked on the public street parking on Hausten Street as there is no actual gym parking, but the walk to the facility was not far. Upon meeting Paul he gave me ample of time to settle, warm up using their equipment, explained the rules and movements for Open 22.1. During the workout Paul was very encouraging and supportive and reassured whether my reps counted or not. Afterwards I was able to cool down and stretch before closing for the afternoon. I would recommend dropping in to Kuleana Fitness for a drop in if you are visiting or if CrossFit is something you are interested in trying. Will come back again. Mahalo Kuleana read more

Mo Fit - Trainers Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I've dropped into the CF Kuleana three times now, and each time it becomes more and more my favorite box to workout at. I love the outdoor atmosphere, and the equipment is in good selection and shape. Yet really, my favorite part of all is how welcoming and warm the staff and fellow patrons are. The coaches are great and helping and encouraging during each workout. Special mention to Paul and Edison! I highly recommend you stop in whether you live on Oahu or are visiting. You'll walk away a better person. read more

Mo Fit - Power Cleans during a romp with 19.2 - Trainers Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I started here last year because my old gym shut down due to covid (RIP K-Fit), and really liked it. I've been a member of four to five CF places since starting CF in 2012, and I think this is one of the best ones I've ever been to. Open air! Friendly coaches! Friendly people! Dogs (occasionally!) Good access to weights of various sizes! Good programming! Fondness for "accessory" work after your WOD. It's a great place to train, and I've seen a lot of improvements in my PRs, my body, and my rest at night. Definitely worth dropping in on, or joining up if you want to start (or continue) your fitness journey with supportive, friendly folks. read more

Thank you Marisa! It was a great workout for us Alaskans. Marisa was very knowledgeable and helpful with instructions. But she didn't hold back! Great for anyone visiting or full membership! read more

Mo Fit - Trainers Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Visited as a Drop in during my vacation here. I went during Open Gym hours and everything was neat, the Coach told me where all the equipment was and they had their variety for me to get a solid workout in. Continently located next door to a great food spot called 'Da Spot Health'. But that's another review. Haha Highly recommend! read more

Second time here dropping in from San Diego. Coaching staff is very friendly. The community and members are also very friendly and inviting. It's a very nice outdoor CrossFit gym and the workouts have always been very good. I come to Oahu about once a year. This will be my go to gym going forward. Highly recommend!!! read more

It took me a long time to get myself to join crossfit. I am so glad that I chose to join Crossfit Kuleana!! From the beginning everyone is very welcoming. There's a bunch of great, supportive coaches who will push you when needed and care about your overall wellness. They provide a non-intimidating and positive environment. The overall vibe is very welcoming and relaxed. Parking can be hard, but just come early to find street parking. The minor struggle is worth it!! read more

Husband and I dropped in while on vacation and the Kuleana box was great. It was the first week of the 2019 Open and I was worried about finding a box that would let me do the workout. First contacted CrossFit HTF; he said I couldn't do the workout there at all. Found CrossFit Kuleana, called Paul who said I could do the open there anytime they were open. Paul, Coach Edison and Mike were so welcoming and helpful. If you want a clean, well run box with great coaches and people, go to Kuleana. You won't be disappointed! read more

I came here for a class with my office. Loved the option to just pay for a class. We had a good time and great workout. The instructor was able to personalize based on our skill level, but we definitely still worked out. read more

I had never attended a CrossFit gym before coming to Kfit. I was very intimidated to try a class, but I felt welcome here even with no experience. I have now taken several classes and each instructor has taken the time to make sure I was doing the exercises correctly. I attend the 7pm Kfit for life class, at least until I build my strength & confidence. I appreciate the focus on form and the non-competitive nature. read more

John was incredibly welcoming and knowledgeable, we dropped in for an open workout in between classes and met some wonderful people. Check in process was quick and easy, we were able to warm up and get ready for as long as we wanted. John then took his time judging both of our workouts and even helped us submit our scores on his computer. The gym was a great space, really cool to have such a large outdoor area. Good equipment. Friendly people. Super welcoming for drop ins. Will definitely be back!!! read more

What a great experience, I did a drop in here and they made me feel like I've always been there. I'm definitely coming back and seeing the coaches in the great people here. read more

If you are in town looking for a great group of crossfitters and super great people, then join in!! The coaches are attentive, give excellent briefings and help with all movements! The time slots are really beneficial for working class and dropins. They use ZenPlanner for reservations and are super helpful if you aren't linked in to it. Don't hesitate to check this place out. Plus you get to workout outside!!! Aloha read more

Super welcoming and supportive staff! Everything was clean and the class was run fantastically. Will definitely be dropping in again!

Great open space box, coaches were super welcoming and keen on mobility warm ups which is a super plus before barbell work. I'm definitely coming back next time I'm in town and highly recommend this box for drop ins. read more

Nice coaches and good, clean gym made for a solid dropin sesh while on vacay. Got a free shirt too!

What a great gym. Super welcoming to us while we dropped in. Workout was killer. Def recommend

The best outdoor workout in Honolulu!! Coaches/teachers are helpful and knowledgeable. They give individual attention and will modify according to your level. The vibe is challenging but down to earth - no one judges if you are a beginner. I'm hooked! read more

Interesting setup for a box as it's basically all outside with a little cover. Once it starts to sprinkle about half of the area gets wet. Facility was on the smaller size for a box, the coach was very nice and welcoming, other gentlemen at the counter not so much. Programming i'd say was less crossfit than the other boxes in the area but still a great workout. They seem to have a couple other fitness classes they offer daily. drop in fee was 20 bucks I believe. read more

We dropped in for a WOD while visiting. Everyone was warm and made us feel at home. The coach was great and equipment in good order. The community was great and would be a place I would join if I were living there. read more

Great group of people. Very helpful instructors. If getting fit isn't high on your priority list, at least go to look at the SUPER ripped guys. read more

I had a great time for the month that I dropped in. The coaches were knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. The members that I met were equally friendly and welcoming. I'm still in touch with some of the members even after I stopped dropping in. They have a lot of open space to work out that's open but mostly shaded. Parking could be an issue but that depends on the time of day. I highly recommend this place for drop ins or for new members. read more

I joined on my birthday and paid for a year upfront. 1300.00. Went to 3 sessions and had to leave oahu a month later to due to a job transfer. I understand that there are "no refunds" but in light of the circumstances CrossFit kuleana said they would refund 500.00 of my money. After multiple phone calls and conversations to Meili the receptionist and many promises of the "checks in the mail" I have received nothing. It has been over a year. The 500.00 by no means will change my standard of living. I am not going to waste any more time and would have respected an honest answer of plain no rather than being lied to. I see great reviews for this gym and maybe had I stayed in Oahu and participated I would feel the same. However that was not my experience. For me, CrossFit kuleana is ironically named by people who clearly don't understand the definition of the word. That is unfortunate. read more

Crossfit Kuleana has a great atmosphere and welcoming community for everyone. There are lots of classes to choose from, and the location is great. The coaches are phenomenal at motivating you to push yourself harder. read more

I'm not a member because I prepaid at punahou fitness and spa for a year. I'm happy there. My friend is a member at kuleana and brought me to one of their bbqs. Everybody was very friendly. Got invited to their Halloween party as well and again it was a great time. My bike got stolen in front of their box during that party night. I didn't lock it to anything. I told Noah (owner) and he said that he'd keep an eye open. 6 hrs later he texted me that he found my bike and that he carried it to the box so I can pick it up any time. I know, not much info about their training, but I think a very good impression on how great the people at kuleana are. And if you like working out and spend a lot of time at the gym / box, isn't that one of the most important things? If I would ever sign up for crossfit, there is only one place I would go to - crossfit kuleana. read more

I have been an athlete most my life and slowed down about 10 years ago due to knee surgery and neck injuries. This last year I saw a change in my body that was not good. I felt unhealthy and depressed. I walked past Crossfit Kuleana one day and watched from the sidewalk in awe. I finally signed up 4 months ago and am sold on this place. My body and mind are healthier than when I was in my 20's, I am 46 now, yikes! The coaches are very attentive and helpful. I look forward every day to coming here and being pushed to be better in every way. My favorites are all the challenges. read more

It's been almost four months since I joined CrossFit Kuleana. Thought I'd write a review now that the honeymoon phase is over. Before joining, I never tried CrossFit before. I moved to Hawai'i over a year ago; prior to moving, I was in pretty good shape thanks to women's boot camp classes I'd been going to for a couple of years. Then I moved and fell out of all of my healthy routines. I tried going back to boot camp classes, but I felt like I wasn't being challenged anymore. And so I walked into CrossFit Kuleana pretty out of shape and a total n00b to lifting. I did a LOT of research on CrossFit since I've heard all of the things about it being unsafe. I looked into pretty much all of the CrossFit gyms in town. Huge props to CrossFit Kuleana for being the only gym to calling me back immediately. Other gyms took days and even weeks to respond to my inquiry about signing up with them. I guess they don't want more business?? Anyway, they have a three-week "elements" (beginners) course with classes 3 times a week. Most of the other CrossFit gyms only offer this course for two weeks, or they offer it for 3 weeks but only twice a week. From day one, the coaches really emphasized safety and good form. I quickly saw that I'd been squatting and lunging incorrectly in my boot camp classes all these years. No wonder I came out of those classes with so many injuries, everything from sprained ankles to strained hip flexors! CrossFit Kuleana, on the other hand, teaches proper form really well and has us do mobility exercises and stretches before starting the workout. All of the coaches are amazing and really approachable. There's no such thing as a stupid question with these folks. Everyone is really welcoming and friendly, and I've made quite a few friends here. This gym also has social events outside of class. Well, it's been four months and I'm still loving it. I have a package that lets me go to class approx. 3 times a week, and now I'm thinking of upgrading to the unlimited package. I can't get enough. I'm really happy with the results I'm getting so far. Looking better, getting stronger... can't complain! If you're curious about CrossFit Kuleana, I highly suggest you check out their free class on Saturdays at 9am. And if you're on Facebook, follow their Facebook page because they update it regularly. You can take a look at the different workouts, upcoming events, specials, and more. read more

I am extremely happy to have found CrossFit Kuleana. It is an hugely welcoming community full of positive vibes and easy-going attitudes. During the workout, expect to be pushed and motivated to do your very best. Breakdown of a day at CrossFit Kuleana: 1. Socialize with the class for a few minutes. 2. Quick warm-up. 3. Stretches, massage ball, foam roller, barbell movements, etc. 4. Technique and strength training such as cleans, snatches, squats, handstands, etc. 5. WOD 6. Socialize while watching the next class (best part!). If you are uncomfortable with a particular movement or you don't believe you will be able to complete the WOD as prescribed, the trainers will offer ways to scale down. And this is a common occurrence as many of the athletes here aren't workout warriors. During the workout, the trainers focus a lot of attention on proper form and technique to ensure that in the long run, you will not be doing any harm to you body. There is a lot of emphasis on longevity and overall health. Not typically something you will find from most trainers. CrossFit Kuleana is a fantastic community and a great way to vastly improve fitness while making lots of friends. I am grateful to be a part of it! read more

When I signed up, I was greeted with a hug and a "welcome to the family!" After a little over a month of working out, the lovefest continues. It's not just that the coaches are extremely warm and encouraging, but the entire "family" of athletes at the gym seem to care for each other. People take the time to introduce themselves and there's no pretentiousness or arrogance. It's just a good vibe and people seem to genuinely enjoy working out together. Take the perfect amount of sweat, competition and sheer determination and mix in a constantly rotating daily workout so you're always working on something new. What I love is that it's a "go at your own pace" type of place, where you can literally make it as hard (or easy) as you want. You're never going to be bored, and you will be encouraged to challenge yourself harder by watching everyone around you. It's hard core enough to make me feel like the hour I carve out of family and work obligations is being used wisely. I always leave red-faced and drenched in sweat. I also love that within a month, I notice muscle definition I haven't had since two kids ago. Maximum efficiency and quick results? Yeah, this is my kind of place. The only drawback: currently a lack of weekend classes. Hopefully that changes in the near future. read more

This place is amazing! I have been going to Crossfit Kuleana since they opened, and was previously training with Marcus and Noah at Crossfit Waikiki. The trainers (Marcus, Noah, Greta, Jeremy, Rebecca) are really genuine and knowledgeable. They are always looking out for your safety and make sure you are training the right way. They are always emphasizing using the proper form and technique and are always willing to work with you to get better. They really care about your health and well-being. The people that workout at Crossfit Kuleana are a special bunch. Everyone is warm and humble. Egos are checked at the door. Competition is friendly and motivating. People are always supporting and cheering each other on. Fitness and skill levels are all over the place, which I find less intimidating and at the same time, motivating. You can learn from one person and help another. You can find motivation in someone above you while motivating someone else behind you. The best thing about Crossfit Kuleana is the feeling of belonging to a family. I've gotten to know the trainers so well that I just feel like they are all friends trying to help me improve. I honestly look forward to going so I can see the people that I work out with everyday. The workout has almost become secondary to the social benefits of getting together with friends at the "box". I've made some great friends at Crossfit Kuleana that have helped to change my life. I'm in my late 30's and haven't felt and looked as good since my early 20's. I have noticeable performance gains on the basketball court when I play in rec league games. I can't thank everyone at Crossfit Kuleana enough for all they have done for me! If you are ready to make changes in your health and life, I highly recommend you give it a try! read more

Like any fitness program results happen when an individual is committed to the cause. The trainers at CrossFit Kuleana are dedicated to helping all who walk through the door with their commitment to fitness and nutrition. This open air gym is filled with people of all ages with different body shapes and at different levels of fitness the trainers are knowledgable with scaling the exercises for the different skill levels and experience their members posess. Everyone at this place is welcoming and friendly even their mascot Liko the dog! A great plus is that these people do things together outside of the gym, too! Surfing, swimming, hiking, barbecuing, going to the roller derby, and going to concerts just to name a few. This place is great to get your fitness on....and meet a bunch of fantastic people in the process! read more

Crossfit Destination recently underwent a merger with Crossfit Waikiki and is now known as Crossfit Kuleana (still think it should have been called Crossfit Belieber). The trainers are all pretty skilled (except Mar. She smells like cumin). Otherwise, still a great place to come and cry. read more

My husband and I have dropped in to a lot of boxes, and Crossfit Kuleana is one of our favorites. Really friendly, knowledgeable staff who are attentive to athletes. Fun and diverse programming (some boxes just schedule torture WODs every day). And welcoming members of different ages and skill levels. Worth checking out. read more
