We have been with Coach O for several months. Our son tried several different places before deciding on Olando’s. He loves it, can’t wait to get to class, especially sparring days! Coach O is a 5x world champion kickboxer! He shares his passion with the kids. Each class is conditioning as well as skills, kids get strong physically and mentally. Highly recommend!

Orlando’s don’t just teach kids techniques and skills, but lets them practice it in the ring with regular 30-second sparring sessions every Friday (something that I have never seen before). He allows these kids to really find themselves and learn in ways that general instruction can’t. The encouragement and enthusiasm that he displays are reciprocated by his students, to not only Orlando, but to each other as well. It’s great to see these kids slug it out, HARD, then go back to their shared corner talking about their scrap and joking around, learning and growing in a respectful environment.

This place really is a gem... The reviews speak for themselves for Olando's Kickboxing Fitness. The Coaches and Trainees are super motivational. Meeting others with the same mindset, and growing through challenges together is an experience that money can't buy. Very well though out course for both adults, and children (especially for sensory training)!

My step nephew attends Olando's Kickboxing, he is learning so much. Coach Olando is a gem, also that Coach Pastor is skillful and is great for the kids self-confidence.Two good men. However this lady Tara I think her name is.... She is always in a nasty mood, horrible with the kids, very unfriendly not a good role model. She really needs to go. I'm sorry for the honesty

Olando's put the kids through rigorous training, however make no mistake, each child is worth 125-150.00 per month. The money and the overpriced equipment that Olando MAKES you buy with his name on it is the only thing this man thinks about, the kids or their lack of talent makes no difference as long as that money is rolling in.... Make no mistake. Everything that he teaches can be done at home for free.
