From the reviews
THE BEST GYM! I joined 9round in Rocky River about 6 months ago and it is easily one of the best decisions that I’ve made for myself in a long time. I never pushed myself at a traditional gym the way that I do at 9round. The workouts are always fun!
I just joined this gym and I have to say it’s one of the best experiences I’ve ever had athletically. The workouts are concise. I leave Feeling like I’ve had a full body workout. The staff is helpful and Motivating!
Recently joined and already feeling/noticing the changes in my body. Staff is very welcoming and jump in to help when they’re on site. The workouts are already set for you on a screen and it’s simple to follow. If you want to challenge your physical/mental capabilities as we approach summer, I recommend joining!
9 Rounds is the best and most convenient workout! I have been a member since 2017 and there is a reason I’ve stayed so loyal. Lou and staff are so encouraging! The 30 minute style workout hits every muscle. It really is a full body workout. I’ve never felt stronger than when I’m punching and kicking the bag!
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.
