From the reviews
9Round Chula Vista is an incredible workout experience. The owner Philam and all of his trainers are so dedicated and truly uplift every client from the moment they walk through the doors. It’s always a very clean looking gym and it’s been this way since I first became a member a couple years ago.
I’ve been a 9Round member for more than a year and I couldn’t be any happier with my experience. The owner, Philam, along with the rest of the coaches, especially Shiryn and Jojo, are truly awesome people.
I love how there are no set gym times, you can always pop up on your own time and get a great workout in, plus you get to punch bags and learn some boxing combos! You can also see how many calories you are burning on the screen and where your heart rate is at. Awesome trainers as well. We love Philam and Jojo!!!
I had an awesome workout there at 9 Round! Trainers really take the time to Coach you and help work on your form. The music is a huge thing for me as I enjoy listening to music while I train. Went in for the complimentary day pass and look forward to switching over to 9 round permanently.
New to kickboxing? Start at 9Round Fitness
9Round Fitness comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners class is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or coordinated to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale every drill to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable gyms build the basics (stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads and bags) first, and any contact eases in gradually under a coach's control. Third, all fitness levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first kickboxing class at 9Round Fitness
Nervous about walking into a kickboxing gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics — stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads or a heavy bag — not hard sparring. Go at your own pace and rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: comfortable athletic clothes you can move and sweat in, and supportive trainers. What to bring: water, and hand wraps and gloves if you have them — many gyms lend loaner gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves and wraps (and shin guards once you start sparring). Sparring is optional and eases in gradually, once your basics are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
