From the reviews

I was a member for a short time and I did enjoy the work out. I just felt uncomfortable for myself because I'm fat and uncoordinated so I feel I made a fool of myself. It is a great place to go workout and blow off some steam.

★★★★☆ — Jennifer, Jan 2017

30 min to sculpt, tone, and increase endurance. 30 min to beat a bag and rid yourself of the days stress, anger or aggressions! 30 min of a trainer that becomes your friend and family encouraging you to challenge yourself! This is my place, my jam, 2 years now, and it never gets old because it's different every day!

★★★★★ — Sabrina, Jun 2019

The best part of my day! It's an intense, nonstop, full-body, strength and cardio workout. The trainers are super helpful and motivating, plus I'm never bored because every round changes daily!

★★★★★ — Amy, Jun 2016

Always an incredible workout with super friendly and attentive trainers. Every day is different and I don't have to worry about what I'm going to do for my workout that day, what music I'm going to listen to, etc. Forces me to push myself, and I'm in and out in no more than 45 minutes!

★★★★★ — Kayla, Mar 2020

New to kickboxing? Start at 9Round Kickboxing Fitness

9Round Kickboxing Fitness 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 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.

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.
