9Round Kickboxing Fitness

Absolutely amazing! The gym is super clean, the music is amazing, and the workout is kickass, but most of all, the trainers are incredible! I’ve never met such excellent trainers in my life! The owners make it a point to learn your name and connect with you! If you’re new to boxing/kickboxing or a seasoned fighter, this is an incredible workout. You wouldn't be disappointed if you join this gym! - Thanks 9Rounds, for all the great workouts!

Dawn has created such a supportive environment at 9Round Bronte. She cares about the members, pushes you when you need it and is there to offer health advice. There is no judgement, no matter your fitness level.Dawn and all the trainers are all there to guide and motivative you. At the beginning of my fitness journey with them I had a hard time skipping rope. With little adjustments, pushing and motiving I quickly overcame that. During these 3 lockdowns, I've missed working out in person at the gym. Dawn has kept me motived to workout via Zoom calls, I need the accountability and she was there. Now as I close in on my 200th workout I'm proud to see my strength and confidence grow thanks to being a member at 9Round Bronte.Looking forward to seeing all the amazing trainers again soon in person.

The owners and all trainers of 9Round Oakville at Bronte are all amazing.Right from my intro class I became addicted and haven’t missed a day since. The workouts are challenging and fun. It’s hard to believe I can get such a hard workout in only 30 minutes.As a healthcare professional, it was important for me to find a gym that made me feel safe and comfortable to work out in during these trying times. I was happy to see that all staff go above and beyond the requirements of the ministry enforcing the vaccination mandates, staggered entry, and cleaning continuously. I highly recommend 9Round Oakville at Bronte.

We now visit the gym as a family almost daily - Jay and Dawn have assembled a really cool team of trainers; the culture is one of respecting each member where they are at from a fitness perspective, and helping them to achieve great things. Awesome coaches and mentors in this gym. Loving every new day and every new workout!!

Alright, settle in and let me tell you the story of how Dawn and 9 Round helped transform me from a serial gym membership buyer to a person who not only shows up, but actually *enjoys* (I’m not even exaggerating!) her workout.After a 20 year history of failed gym relationships I’d pretty much given up on anything that requires a contract because I know I won’t go more than about 4 months. Win #1 - 9 Round is only a one month commitment.In my entire life, I have had zero interest in kickboxing. I actively do NOT want anybody physically fighting me and honestly, it seemed kinda boring. But I’d done some home workouts w shadow boxing as a premise that I had enjoyed, so when a 9 Round opened around the corner from me, I figured I’d give it a go. I mean, I could literally walk and it was not far from the train I took to work every day. Also NO class times. Which is perfect for my gym commitment issues ;). Suffice to say, it is the opposite of boring.So, with all that background, here’s what got me in the door:- Only monthly commitment- No class times- Trainer involved in every workout incl in cost of membership (I hate tiered memberships w a passion)- Free gloves (don’t know if that’s still a thing, but it was when I started)- Different workout every day- Timed workout - I knew it would always be half an hour- App w stats (I love my collection of reasonably useless data)Once there, here’s what made me stay; lots of this I give credit to Dawn (owner) personally rather than 9 Round org:- It’s like that song about it’s good to go where everybody knows your name…. Within days, I felt like family. All the trainers knew me and would address me by name. If it was morning, they’d leave me alone; afternoon we’d chat. And I could see they were reading all their clients to suit personal preferences (I am not a people person before 9am).- All the trainers were cheerful, positive, and able to offer practical technical advice, enabling me to learn the new skills safely, effectively, and injury free.- One person to a station and you all rotate at the same time so never waiting on anyone to finish or to use any machine- Each exercise is only 3 minutes. If I enjoy it, it flies. But even if it’s something I despise w a burning passion, it’s *only* three minutes and I know I won’t have to do it again tomorrow- The challenge of the week: a new one every week, it rotates stations (and related skills). I find I always put in a little extra on “CHOW” day. Winner gets bragging rights and a pic w an oversized belt ;). I also like that the staff participate as well but aren’t in the running for the win.- Trainer drills - this is 1-1 work with a live person that usually requires a little more coordination. The trainers are really good at modifying to suit ability.- The place is always spotless. Even in the before times, pre COVID.- Kickboxing is phenomenal stress relief! Had a rough day at work? Punch it out! Super excited and life is awesome? Punch faster! It suits almost every mood. Even exhausted: putting almost no effort into the workout is a cheat for sure, but is still one step up from staying on the couch, and I’d always feel better after.Cons:- no showers made it so I couldn’t stop on my way to work (it really is a drop in, workout, and go situation)- I had to invest in 80s style headbands to control sweat cause you can’t wipe when wearing gloves!Honestly - a pretty short list compared to all of the above! Drop in, give the free trial a shot, and even if you’ve never wanted to box, you may find that one thing that helps you improve your fitness. I did.

Honestly the owners and trainers are AMAZING! It is highly addictive and you see and feel better just doing it! It’s a positive community that encourages you and motivates you without feeling judged regardless of age, size or gender. Everyone here just wants you too succeed , feel and look your best! Best decision I ever made!

I had tried a ton of diets, workout plans, personal trainers for the last couple years and nothing worked. Then I found 9Round in January this year and it was the best thing that could have happened for my health. The owners and the trainers are some of the nicest people I’ve met and they really help motivate you and push you to be your best. I’ve come so far in just four months and I’m excited to continue my fitness journey with the 9Round Bronte location. Seriously can’t recommend this place enough and would give more than 5 stars if I could!

Just joined after needing to getvthe body moving after prolonged covid inactivity. I found it worked for me because each work out is only 30 min. Can walk in anytime. The owners and yhe staff are super friendly and help ease any anxiety or insecurities you may have about becoming more active.

It was my first time at 9Round and had such a great time. I wasn't sure what to expect but the trainers, Dawn and Danny, were fantastic. They were very welcoming and helpful coaching me through each station. It's definitely the best workout that I have had in a while. Definitely coming back again. Thanks Dawn and Danny!
