I don't think there will ever be enough words to describe what OTC has meant for our family. My boys have been at OTC since 2021-2025 (summer) and they loved everything about this place. they always looked forward to practice. The best taekwondo gym on island! From poomsae to sparring, your child will succeed in both! They make champions there! My boys, have learned so much from the Mccutcheon family and their staff. Huge shoutout to Tasha for placing orders on gear and keeping upstairs running smoothly! read more

Aloha, Like most people, I rarely write reviews when they are positive. Oahu Taekwondo Center has far exceeded my expectations. I am in constant amazement of how patient, caring, supportive and structured all of the leadership and staff are when caring for all of the kids in the class. My son is currently a Green Belt/5 years old and loves Oahu Taekwondo Center. Leadership finds a way to care for newer kids who are adjusting while at the same time maintaining order of the rest of the class. To be able to see all of the kids smiling, learning and displaying foundational character traits is such a joy to see. The Best activity/discipline we have enrolled my son in to date.

Jab, cross, hook, upper, upper, hook! Yes, I'm HOOKED on kickboxing thanks to Oahu Taekwando. I feel stronger and more confident ever since I started kicking butt in a women's kickboxing class here a few months ago. The gym is clean and bright. The staff is knowledgeable, strong and friendly. My coaches are awesome. They offer taekwando to all ages and skill levels as well as kickboxing. I'm so glad my friend invited me to take kickboxing classes. Like I said, I'm hooked! Mahalo Oahu Taekwando!!! read more

Sign up!! My daughter goes here and loves it! Sometimes I have to encourage her to go but most kids would rather just play. Once she's there she loves it. All the instructors are so helpful and supportive. They are amazing!! We only go once a week but she's a yellow belt now and she always talks about when she had to break that board with her front kick. I would seriously consider it if you're any age or experience. They are definitely there to help you grow and not to get you belts and make money(like some other places). read more

We been going around to find a taekwondo class for my daughter. Found OTC. The best taekwondo class in Oahu. Great teacher and environment. Lots of parking big training area. Always follow guide line especially this pandemic time. RECOMMEND. A+++++ read more

So far my son loves it ! Instructions are kind and patient ... literally the only place my son is in tuned with a activity he loves !

The BEST Taekwondo school in Hawaii! I have known Master McCutcheon since we were white belts together. Talk about a man who is blessed! Brian is a gifted fighter and the best instructor in the business. Wanted by many to Coach them to their Olympic dreams, Brian is sought out by many fighters from all over the country. When Hawaii fighter's enter the ring, the question is always asked if they are trained by Master McCutcheon. But that is not all, then you have his talented wife, Master Tamra McCutcheon! Tamra runs the business and trains the students as well. It doesn't stop there, Tamra is also one of the fastest Blackbelts in the school. Ty, Macy, and Mandy are their kids and fighters themselves. Not only would I recommend this school, I would send anyone here. It is worth the drive from anywhere on the island! I always come and pay respect to the McCutcheon's when I am in town. Keep up the GREATNESS OTC! read more

Caring, patient, and encouraging instructors and masters. My 2 girls loves training at OTC.

So glad we found OTC! My boys love this place. i highly recommend this place for kids- adults to learn martial arts.

Took my kids here for the 1st time and they had a blast. The staff did an outstanding job at teaching the basic fundamentals of Taekwondo while making it fun for all the little ones. My kids were a little nervous at first, but because of the awesome staff they had there, my kids quickly became comfortable. I recommend this place to anyone. read more

We LOVE this place for our son. He started here at 4 years old and has stayed at it for 3 years now, almost entirely due to the fantastic coaches here. OTC provides a true Ohana to it's members, while training the kids hard through discipline and love. Such a fantastic place. read more

It's been many years since I studied at OTC and I still feel like part of the Family! As a life long Martial Artist, and as someone who has studied under some of the biggest names in Martial Arts, I feel justified in saying that OTC are some of the best Martial Arts schools around. If you want to set yourself, child, or loved one up for success in TaeKwonDo this is the place to do it!! read more

My son has been attending these guys for over a year now and he LOVES it!!! My son is a total "millennial" kid who loves nothing but his iPad and Switch! We couldn't get him to do nothing. We thought he needed some kind of sport to get active! He's a chunkster lol. But he loves attending his Taekwondo classes. I think it's partially because of their air conditioned facility lol. But mainly it's because of the patience these guys have with him. My son has autism, a mild case. However, he loves going to his classes there. The staffs patience is great! They have their regular classes going but manages to pull those that need the extra help to the side of the class to have a more one on one assistance then heads those kids back in line with the others to continue the lesson. Here and there they also play games with the kids at the end of classes. Which is always fun to watch. The staff there are friendly and seem very family oriented. They have a day where they let my son try a class before even committing so I would say to bring your child have them just to try it out, I'm almost certain, they will be wanting to join. read more

Oahu Taekwondo Center is the best! I have been training for the last 8 years (on & off)in Taekwondo in the mainland and this is the most fun, exciting, and respectful school that I have attended in the past. The instructor's are dynamic in their teaching style and display both patience and encouragement in their methods. This school has motivated me to want to continue in training and to reach my goal as a black belt. An amazing school with amazing people of all ages. It's never too late. If you want to learn in a safe and loving environment, Oahu Taekwondo Center is the place for you! You will not regret it, but love it! :) read more

Phew! So I used to take kickboxing a little while back, okay not little, like about 5 years ago at this same place. Starting back up and went for my first class this morning at their new location. Wow! That was an amazing workout. Yes, I have been through the gym memberships, took pole dancing classes, as well as bought p90x on dvd. But I need something a little more motivating like this (plus I'm trying to get in shape for my wedding). I loved it. I actually thought I was going to die when I was on the punching bags and probably regretted the fact that I woke up late so I didn't eat breakfast so my energy level was null. I will need to work on my coordination and stuff but overall awesome workout. The instructor is nice and the other women are pretty motivating too. Can't wait to get back into it again! Highly recommended! read more

So my boyfriend had been training here since he was 14yrs old he is now in his mid 20s and is a 2nd degree black belt and branched off to mixing it up and took up bjj and muay thai....but getting to the point...he had mention how his tkd school offered Women's Kickboxing (who is taught by the owners wife who is also a black belt) I was so stoked and of course anything boxing/fighting related always had my best interest, before taking up Muay Thai Boxing @ M-1, Oahu Taekwondo was my very 1st class where I started taking kickboxing for 2 years, it's where I learned the basic 1-6 punch combos, basic kicks, proper form and stance and the plus side we got to incorporate some tkd techniques. I enjoyed coming to class ready to kick, punch and get an awesome workout. Tammy is an amazing and very motivating instructor. Having the pleasure to train here made me realize how much I enjoy martial arts and the art of it! And FYI: Kickboxing and Muay Thai are completely different (kicking wise) I had to adjust and transition once I started taking MT 6 months ago Note: and this school is one of the best places to learn Taekwondo (I'm not just saying it because my bf trained here for many years) but I got to witness first hand when i would watch his school compete and they always ranked and took in 1st place in divisions and their Sir Brian Mccutcheon is a very good teacher who has lots of knowledge in tkd read more

so we officially signed my son up for taekwondo after trying the two free trial classes. He's a very nervous kid and I was worried, but the instructors are very nice and patient with the kids, and my son has gotten more comfortable. He finally wanted to join. I'm so glad. Can't wait to see my sons progress.! Highly recommend OTC. read more

For the last 5 years, I've been a "victim" of the trainers from the women's kickboxing class at Oahu Taekwondo Center. I live in town and I choose to travel to pearl city because of the standard of excellence the school holds itself to. From professional authentic training (to be sure, this isn't your aerobic -punch the air and shake your butt kinda exercise, but boxing in all it's original intent coupled with taekwondo kicking), reasonable class sizes and pricing, and a clean environment with state of the art equipment. The workout is one of the best types of exercise around if you are serious about toning, keeping in shape but you're the type that needs someone pushing you (instructor Brassie is all too happy to fill that role). Kickboxing has also proved to be an incredible outlet for working out any stress you might be carrying, many times even without knowing. Me and my friends call it our "pent up aggression!" lol. Another one of the benefits of taking Women's Kickboxing interestingly enough, is that you no longer feel like an obvious victim in dark alleys or while walking late at night. The classes provide you with the confidence to know that you could for the MOST part, and at the very LEAST defend yourself should the unthinkable happen to you. I've enjoyed my time at OTC so much that i've enrolled my son in Taekwondo classes two times a week. Its the first time in his life that he's enjoyed a sport (not to mention actually follows the direction of the instructors!) OTC is my modern day miracle. read more

The instructors are like family..very caring, nurturing environment with great training

Couldn't be happier with Oahu Taekwondo Center. Our son has been attending class here for a year now, and our daughter just started a few weeks ago. From day one, we could tell all of the teachers here do an excellent job keeping the kids focused and working hard while maintaining a relaxed and fun environment as well. Within the classes, they really differentiate to everyone's unique abilities, levels, and needs. Can't wait for our kids' continuing adventures with OTC. read more

OTC is without a doubt the best Taekwondo school in Hawaii and produces some of the best taekwondo athletes in the nation. The instructors are very nice and thoughtful. I started when I was 6 years old and I enjoyed it from day one. Perfect place and environment for kids to exercise, learn discipline, and just have fun! And this place really does produce some of the best athletes in the nation. It is even home of a 2008 Beijing olympian. Highly recommended for kids and for anyone interested in learning martial arts. And for the ladies, they have an awesome kickboxing class that will whoop your butt into shape! read more

This school is awesome. Super supportive and positive. Not only great workouts to get you healthy but the staff treats you like family. It's so motivating and supportive, that you can't pass up this positive environment. Great for kids, and adults, especially moms on the fitness track. I always have a great workout. MUST TRY!!! read more

I've been a member of Oahu Taekwondo Center for about 6yrs now, what attracted me is how the instructors grasp the attention of these young children. Their level of expertise is above & beyond what I've seen in other schools. The kids take to the sport well and advance rapidly in a healthy nurturing family environment. The women's kickboxing & cross fit is awesome too, the workout is incredible, they have schedules to meet everyones needs. They have everything for the entire family to enjoy. read more

At Oahu Taekwondo Center, you can be guaranteed a great workout from kickboxing, taekwondo or xp fight fitness (strength & cardio workout). The classes are motivating, fun and never boring. Call ahead to make sure one of the instructors are available to give you individual instructions. read more

At Oahu Taekwondo Center I get a workout that combines strength training, cardio, weight resistance and isometric exercises all in 1 full hour of instruction. I've been taking their women's kickboxing classes for 6 years until 3 years ago when I added Taekwondo training as well. The best part is that I'm almost the same weight now as when I was in high school! The workouts are never boring. You will never do the same repetitive things. The instructors are all black belts and highly qualified. You get the genuine sense that they care deeply about each students progress. I recommend training at OTC to everyone I know. read more
