Coach Kimo was amazing! From the start, his communication and response time were top-notch. As someone with no prior experience, I really appreciated how he took the time to clearly explain everything, breaking it down in a way that made sense and helped ease my nerves. He removed any intimidation I was feeling and made me feel welcomed and supported. What stood out the most was his kindness, focus on safety, and how he tailored everything to my current fitness level, encouraging me to start slow and grow steadily. It gave me so much hope and motivation moving forward. I could tell he had a lot of knowledge and experience but was so patient with me. I was actually weighing between this and another fitness class, but Coach Kimo’s communication, openness, and genuine approach were what made me choose CrossFit Hawaii Kai. So glad I did!

Today was another great morning at CrossFit Hawaii, HK with Kimo Kockelman. Kimo has been my trainer since 2002. In 2015 I started CrossFit with Kimo and have never looked back. His training skills are unmatched. Kimo is a very hands-on instructor who demonstrates, and then evaluates everyone to make sure everyone is performing the skill in a safe manner. I would say he’s always coaching to your skill level and making suggestions to improve your skills and performance. It does not matter how many times you have done a workout, deadlifts Burpee‘s, sit-ups, push-ups, power cleans, Kimo is always teaching demonstrating and making sure you are performing each task properly. I’m 74 years old and they always say you can’t teach old dogs new tricks, well almost every class. I learn something new about my skills and how to improve my skills. Kimo‘s attention to detail and safety are bar none the best. He has kept me motivated for many years, I am grateful for CrossFit Hawaii and all the athletes. Aloha Bo.

Coach Max is the real deal. He’s been a huge help during my workouts, especially today! Pushed me to get the most out of the session while making sure I was moving right. I’ve also been dealing with a shoulder issue, and Max has been super supportive with my rehab. He takes the time to suggest smart modifications and find exercises I can do without making the injury worse. Grateful for the patience, knowledge, and energy he brings to every class. Big mahalo, Max!

Since I don’t work out as frequently nowadays, it’s even more important for me to have good coaching, to make sure my movements are good and also to make sure I get the right stimulus. Kimo always gives me just the right advice on how to scale, and I always end up feeling like I went as hard as I could in the workout. Even though I can’t go as hard as I used to do, I always feel encouraged afterward. Mahalo, Kimo!

There was a very positive and community driven energy about the class, which I deeply appreciated! The box itself was very organized and clean, which I also appreciated! I will be definitely be coming back and will be my go to box when I am in town!
