From the reviews
I’ve never seen a boxing community that is this supportive and respectful, the owner and his son of this location are very driven to help everyone with what they want to achieve and show you how anyone is able to do this, they make cardio sound exciting!
What a great fitness center Knockout is! The sense of community at their Tempe spot is awe-inspiring. The spot is always kept clean and there is more than enough community gear to borrow for their sessions. They also have gear for sale at very reasonable prices. Hey! They will even throw in a discount.
This is a great gym. The team is very welcoming, encouraging and respectful. Gym is clean and equipped and they provide you with the stuff you need for class. I almost threw up the first day from being out of shape 😂 but I'm honestly seeing progress in my endurance and strength pretty quickly.
Vinny, Jacob, and Antonio are all amazing people! The management is great on making sure this place looks spotless and the trainers are always motivating me and are great at creating a welcoming atmosphere. They allow you to try out a Free class first to see how you like it!
New to kickboxing? Start at Knockout Fitness
Knockout Fitness 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 Knockout Fitness
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.
