From the reviews
The first day I walked into Farrell's I was more scared then I have ever been in my life. I was sure this was something I could not do. With the help of motivating instructors, supportive coaches, and an amazing group of new friends I was able to succeed!
I joined Farrell's about 22 weeks ago. I was a new 10 weeker 7 years ago but stopped going because I thought I could kick my own butt. I quickly realized that was not the case. No one looked down on me for leaving, and actually everyone was glad I made it back. Great place to workout! Awesome coaches!
I used to do Farrell’s at another location but when I came back I heard great things about Cst location so now I go here and love it. The instructors are great the people are great and the Business Manager Mandi really cares about people’s well being. Highly recommend
I hadn't worked out since high school (and I was late in my 40s). I knew I needed something to start being heart healthy. I saw the pictures of the 10-week participants and wondered how I could do and what type of changes I could make in 10 weeks. I'm so glad I made the decision to make a huge difference in my life!
New to kickboxing? Start at Farrell's eXtreme Bodyshaping - Cedar Rapids - C Street
Farrell's eXtreme Bodyshaping - Cedar Rapids - C Street 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 Farrell's eXtreme Bodyshaping - Cedar Rapids - C Street
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.
