From the reviews
This place is awesome. I went there for the first time last Wednesday to the 7:30pm class. The people that work there are friendly and willing to help in any way possible. The instructor took the time to walk around the room and give everyone tips to help them out. They have enough space to host huge crowds.
I’ve been attending CKO for almost two months and it’s the safest option for an awesome workout in Hoboken. The owner Ann is really sweet! It’s great to have options of classes then the gym upstairs (which is spaced out and has sanitizing options every couple feet).
Like many, I was wondering how gyms (and CKO in particular) can come back after everything came to a halt last Spring. First glimpse of hope was the outdoor classes the team started holding outside in June. They literally moved parts of the gym (heavy bags and stands) outdoors to a nearby small park.
I was nervous, but I took my first kickboxing class today at CKO and signed up for a membership immediately after. The staff and coaches are incredibly nice, especially Marc, who answered my 10000 questions, showed me some great stretches for my lower back and made me feel like family.
New to kickboxing? Start at CKO Kickboxing Hoboken
CKO Kickboxing Hoboken 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 CKO Kickboxing Hoboken
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.
