Classes in Irvine, CA
Every program we teach at Team Oyama, and what to expect from each one.
Cardio Kickboxing
Our most popular class and the best place to start. A non-contact, high-energy workout that can burn hundreds of calories while you learn real striking technique. Punches and kicks are performed with a partner, on the bags, or in the air, combined with continuous movement and interval-style conditioning. No experience, no sparring, and no contact required. Perfect for anyone looking to build endurance, coordination, and overall fitness.

Kickboxing
The natural next step after Cardio Kickboxing, and still a fantastic workout. Here the focus shifts toward developing proper kickboxing technique, timing, and skill. You'll spend much of the class drilling with partners, which involves a moderate amount of controlled contact, so a mouthguard, shin guards, and 16 oz boxing gloves are required. New to striking? Start with Cardio Kickboxing and move up when you're ready.

Muay Thai
Known as the "Art of Eight Limbs," Muay Thai adds elbows and knees to the punches and kicks of kickboxing for a versatile, high-intensity striking workout rooted in Thai tradition. Led by multiple-time WBC Muay Thai Champion Romie Adanza, classes focus on technique, conditioning, and practical application. We recommend building a foundation in Cardio Kickboxing or Kickboxing first, then stepping in to deepen your skills and push your conditioning to the next level.
