From the reviews

ChuloFit training studio is such an amazing gym with a great atmosphere. I have trained with Lamont for over 5 years now and he is one of the best! He is very knowledgeable about health and fitness and is always learning to better himself and his gym. I also love training with Nancy and Ashley.

4.9 is a criminal review, should be 5.0 across the board. ChuloFit is more than just a gym that offers group classes (including kickboxing) to its members which are designed for beginners to experts. It is a community and a family that welcomes you right away (no cliques or BS).

★★★★★ — Craig, Sep 2025

ChuloFit is THE place to train. You will always be made to feel like family here (I cannot emphasize this enough). The trainers take great interest in anyone that walks through the doors & you always leave with a good sweat. I love the variety of workout classes offered & how the staff helps you crush your goals.

★★★★★ — Bridget, Aug 2021

If you’re looking for an amazing training facility Chulo is where you belong! I found out about Chulo’s athlete program from a friend & after one class my son was hooked! He loved working out with the trainers, completing the drills & looked forward to class.

New to kickboxing? Start at ChuloFit - Group Fitness & Personal Training Studio

ChuloFit - Group Fitness & Personal Training Studio 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 ChuloFit - Group Fitness & Personal Training Studio

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.
