From the reviews

I absolutely love working out at 9Round! It is definitely the best part of my day. I love the fact that it’s 30 minutes but absolutely a full body workout and something different every day. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable! I hate missing a day😊!

★★★★★ — Monique, Aug 2021

I can’t say enough good things about this gym. The workouts are extremely challenging, but very doable. Everyday the workout is different, so I never felt bored. If you are looking to lose weight, give their 6 week fitness challenge a try.

★★★★★ — Preston, Apr 2018

Go try your first free workout! When compared to other gyms with similar amenities, the price Is very reasonable. I love 9 Round because you can go there anytime, you never have to think about your workout because everyday there is a new workout provided for you, and there are trainers there to help you.

★★★★★ — Kayla, Aug 2024

9Round is just the best! It's the workout that has worked best and most consistently for me after trying every gym, class, fad, etc. The trainers at University are so wonderful - they're helpful and keep you motivated through each round.

New to kickboxing? Start at 9Round Kickboxing

9Round Kickboxing comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. 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 Kickboxing

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.

Kickboxing is a contact sport. Warm up, pace yourself, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
