CKO Kickboxing South Bay

This is my first time taking kickboxing and it was a lot of fun and very thorough lesson for the first day! I havent properly exercised in years so it was a bit tough, i had to pause to catch my breathe a few times but Asha was extremely kind and understanding with me! She had made a good rhythm of harder and taxing moves/exercises to lighter movements that would flow one into the other so i wouldnt tire out as fast as i couldve She was very supportive and thoroughly explained every movement very well and pushed me to work hard to improve! Ive always wanted to try this and im so glad i finally did!

So I have been working on my health and joined this gym in Aug 0f 2023. It's been amazing! The workout is a full body WORKOUT, you can lessen the intensity or increase it. The staff will help you modify, make it low impact or high impact. When I started I was burning 350 maybe 400 calories. Now I'm doing about 550. The environment, well it is like family. No shaming no egos, no feeling as if what your doing is not enough (unless you arent then you get a gentle nudge). Each instructor has their own style, but all give a great work out. Mentally there is no better place to leave your stress (ha coming from a Psychotherapist) there is generally a therapist working out in the class. Coming from a somatic approach being able to get physical, yell at the bag and work on your breath it's not only a physical work out but mental and somatic work out. I periodically do a group class there for clients. I've gotten so much stronger and I am so much happier with my health, all my important numbers are down. Thanks Asha and the CKO team/family!

What is important to me is the people you surround yourself and dedicate your time to. I joined a few years ago, went in on 12/31 (starting out new year!) and knew instantly I found my spot. Asha was so engaging, friendly and informative. Her team of trainers and desk staff are simply the best in class! All shapes and athletic abilities are welcome in this gym. The classes are so fun and very challenging. The trainers will help modify your needs so if you are looking to burn more calories they will help you with that or if you need to modify a move they are there for you every step of the way. I spend a lot of time here and have gained new friends as well as became closer to my friends that joined the gym with me. This is my happy place!

This is my happy place! I come to CKO almost every day of the week and twice on Saturdays! The atmosphere is amazing. The trainers are fun and engaging, they really love what they do and make it a point to get to know every single one of their clients. The classes are open concept and you set your own pace, but they also allow you to challenge and push yourself to better your fitness and technique. In just a few months I've improved my endurance, strength, flexibility, and power, while really learning proper technique for a sport I've come to love. It's not your regular boring workout, it feels like I'm in the zone and giving it all I've got. I'm more than passionate about it -- I'm definitely addicted to CKO South Bay!
