From the reviews
Came for the classes, stayed for the community ❤️. The trainers are so helpful and able to give feedback/adjustments to moves if needed. If I skip class too often, I eventually get a text checking in to make sure I’m ok. There’s a good amount of variety, everything from yoga and barre to weightlifting and kickboxing.
I started at aptitude almost a year ago. I have never wanted to take any step into any gym. This gym is not like a traditional gym. I have never felt more comfortable than I do going here the instructors are all extremely kind , helpful and supportive.
I love Aptitude Fitness! The equipment is modern and works great, the atmosphere is friendly and clean, the instructors are helpful and motivating, and the facility feels welcoming. I’m already seeing results and it feels like a great gym near me. Would definitely come back again.
Awesome coaches, awesome members, awesome classes. Lots of variety to choose from. I've been a member for over 3 years. I highly recommend Aptitude to anyone wanting a VERY accepting and welcoming place to find a gym home.
Your first kickboxing class at Aptitude 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.
