Kickboxing

You want to sweat and have fun. Kickboxing is your room.

Why Kickboxing fits you

Kickboxing is the gateway striking art. The contact is whatever you want it to be — most gyms have a thriving cardio kickboxing population that never spars and a small competition team that does. You get to throw punches and kicks, sweat through a t-shirt, learn real technique, and go home. Your answers say you want fun and fitness ahead of competition, you have a moderate schedule, and you'd rather avoid hard hits. Kickboxing is exactly that lane.

What to expect in your first class

Warm-up, partner pad work, bag rounds. You'll learn the jab-cross-hook combo and the round kick. Most classes are an hour, music is loud, and the energy is high. Bring gloves if you have them; the gym will lend you a pair if not. You will be sore in the obliques. That's the kick mechanic teaching your body what it forgot.

What it'll cost

$100–$180/month for unlimited classes.
