From the reviews
I recently committed to a full year membership at CKO in Chatham and I’m so glad I did. As a fitness enthusiast my whole life, I had somehow managed to let my workouts slide. Before I knew it, I was completely out of shape. I’d been away from kickboxing and fitness in general for years!
I was looking for a new gym to join that embodies both a supportive environment for beginners, such as myself, and a family unit overall. Chatham CKO embodies everything that I have searched for and beyond.
I recently decided I wanted to try to get back into working out somewhere else besides my home. I signed up for the 42 day challenge and so glad I did - I immediately felt welcomed and supported. Members and trainers are all so friendly.
I can't say enough wonderful things about CKO Chatham!! I joined them through their 42 day transformation and was inspired and felt part of an amazing community of people that all supported me from day 1. The owners have really made this a special place with quality trainers and classes that really produce results.
New to kickboxing? Start at CKO Kickboxing Chatham
CKO Kickboxing Chatham comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. 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 CKO Kickboxing Chatham
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.
