From the reviews

I decided to truly prioritize my health & fitness ability while in the midst of the global pandemic. Joining a friend in virtual personal trainings with Coach Thor has been life-changing! He challenges us in sessions that include cardio, strength/core training, and kickboxing drills.

★★★★★ — Kendrea, Aug 2020

HOTFITNYC!! I honestly don’t think a review can do them justice. As someone who new to fitness, working with Coach Thor, Coach Jamie and Coach Cotto has been incredible. Everyone is so patient, kind, fun and totally not intimidating. They are so welcoming to all skill levels and always have modifications.

★★★★★ — Rachna, Aug 2020

As a martial artist, Coach Thor has an incredible combination of technical perfection, speed, power, endurance and flexibility which makes him virtually undefeatable.

★★★★★ — Vladimir, Aug 2020

Can't say enough good things about the team at Hot Fit NYC!!! I have been taking boxing classes off and on for several years, including here in NYC, and Coach Thor's classes are my favorite. Classes are well structured and an excellent workout.

New to kickboxing? Start at HOT FIT NYC

HOT FIT NYC 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 HOT FIT NYC

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.
