From the reviews
Best workout in town! Short time commitment for intense workout is rewarding physically and mentally. The trainers are knowledgeable, encouraging and motivating. I feel safe at this gym and never judged, only celebrated. Very welcoming atmosphere and always leave feeling stronger and re-energized...
9 rounds is an excellent workout. Not only do I love the trainers at 9rounds but I love that I can always make it work with my schedule and know I am going to get a great workout.
There is no doubt that 9Round will transform you on the outside, but it also offers the potential for inner transformation. The highly skilled trainers create a supportive atmosphere that makes you want to work hard, and it teaches you how to take risks.
I’ve never been a huge fan of going to the gym over the years but I love me some 9round. Definitely not your typical gym experience. It’s a community of people who push each other and enjoy working hard, and the trainers are an integral key to the success of that community.
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.
