I started coming to IronGloves to train for an upcoming charity boxing match. In just two short weeks, I have learned a ton about proper technique while also losing a few pounds and inches off of my waist. In less than a month, I can already wear dress shirts that I had taken out of my rotation because I had gotten too heavy. I can also see my endurance improving rapidly. During my first personal training workout, I felt like I was going to pass out because I was so out of shape. Now, I'm powering through my workouts while still retaining proper form and technique. Lastly, I can't say enough about how amazing owners Joe and Renene are. Joe is a great trainer who really motivates you to reach your personal fitness goals. Renene is so incredibly approachable and always answers your calls and texts so quickly. She really works with you to ensure that you develop a routine that is rigorous, yet convenient. I will be a client at IronGloves for a long time to come!

My wife and I decided last October 2025 to take a free first class at EVKM for a date night. I…read morefirst spoke to Keith the owner on the phone who was friendly and encouraging. I had some concerns mand explained I might not be able physically do the class. Im not 20 years old anymore and am short one wash board stomach lol. I thought I might be to old ( in my mind Im 30 :), but my body is 54. Keith said to come in and give it a shot its free to try it. He also said to come and do what you can there is no failure to try. My wife and I took an introductory class on a Friday evening. Everyone was very nice from the minute we arrived, with no pressure and no "Im better than you attitude" . Everyone of all ages was smiling, friendly and encouraging. The facility is second to none with all the cool pads and mats and work out punching bags. It's a large space with good lighting and is well taken care of, bathrooms were clean as well. It is obvious from the moment you enter the building that they take pride in thier space as much as thier philosophy and practices. We got right in to to our 50 minute class starting with the owner himself, Keith (a black belt), showing us a basic fight stance. Then a female instuctor named Amy took over with a basic warmup consisting of jumping jacks, jogging around the padded mat and stretches etc. She then taught us to punch correctly and we learned how to break out of a choke hold. I was amazed at what you can learn in 1 hour with a quality well spoken instructors that actually cares if you "get it" or not. My wife also liked the class. After the class ended we had a post meeting with Keith where he gave us the run down on options for memberships and pricing. It all seemed fair for what you get and access to so much skilled training. I've owned my own small business for 27 years so I can appreciate fair, but still needing to make a profit pricing to keep a good business going strong. If its to cheap the business won't last and if its to expensive no one will pay the high price. After a couple days I called Keith and signed up on a limited basis at first because I honestly didn't know if this was something I could commit to with my work schedule and responsibilities for running my own business. My wife liked the class and hoped to do more, but has some serious neck and ankle issues from past injuries and felt after thinking about it more that she would be better off to do something more geared toward her physical restrictions. However she whole heartedly encouraged me to continue to go if I liked it and so I did! I started with one class a week at first and then over the course of a few months realized what a physical and mental benefit Krav Maga was adding to to my life. I made time in my life for the training and now 5 months in I'm going 3 to 4 times a week and have added some running and home workouts as well. I have learned a lot and excited to learn more, there is years and years worth to material to learn so it is always a challenge every class. I also bought a Krav Maga book recommended by one of the instructors and have used it to review after class what we learned and practice on my own. I found that doing some of the techniques in my pool is great practice and the water gives resistance to the moves and forces you to go slow and be more precise...and its relaxing. The long and short of it is East Valley Krav Maga Self Defense and Fitness in Tempe is worth every penny and I would say if you are looking for something to get fit other than going to a sweaty gym with everyone parading around like peacocks this might be just the fit you are looking for. It's never to late or to early to make positive life changes and take care of the most important thing in your life ...YOU! Once you help yourself you can then help others in many ways from a place of both mental and physical strength!

I had the pleasure of visiting this gym since I'm in the area visiting family for Thanksgiving. My…read moregym asked if I could visit and work out. Since it was okay with them, I went. This gym is located in a little strip mall in Gilbert near one of the many Fry's. :) It was a little different walking into this gym since I've only ever worked out at my "home" gym location. Upon walking in, the first thing I noticed was how large the gym was. It was so spacious and the rounds were spread out. There was even room in the middle to do trainer led drills and not run into anyone. The set up for the 9rounds is all the same. You start at round 1 which is a jump rope drill and you end with round 9 which is usually some ab work drill. Another thing I noticed about this place was that the had bands all over the gym. I was going to go straight for the bands but decided to do what was written on the boards instead. I met April and she was super nice and friendly. She watched over me but not in a creepy way...more so if I didn't understand a workout that was written or if I needed some help in general. She asked me questions about my gym and I asked her some questions as well. It's a little hard to keep up a conversation while working out but we made due. We did my trainer led drill and I loved it. I was in the red rather quickly since April made me work for it but it's all good. I mean that's what I was there for anyway. After my workout, I was putting my stuff away and I noticed that they had some awesome shirts/tanks. Although, the ones that they had displayed weren't in my size so I asked if they had any in the back. Unfortunately, they only had the larger sizes but we were able to find a different one that I hadn't noticed that was in my size. I quickly bought that one. I really wanted new wraps and new gloves but they had the same offerings we do at my gym so I decided against buying new ones. My overall experience here was awesome. As a visiting member, I received the same hospitality as if I was their gym member. It was a warming and welcoming feeling. I'm so glad I was able to get in a workout on my vacation and at a gym I love. Thank you 9round Gilbert and thank you April for treating me like your 9round family. I had the best time. See you next time I come in to work out. Thanks.

Walking into any gym can be intimidating, but from the moment I stepped in to get information, I felt genuinely welcomed. Unlike many gyms that immediately push you to sign up, the front desk staff took the time to explain their drop-in classes so you could try it out first. That alone spoke volumes. Each coach has their own unique coaching style and knows exactly when to push you and when to encourage you. That energy carries through the entire gym and creates a real sense of community. Even on your worst day, the members become your biggest cheerleaders. It's been two years now, and Pro Edge is more than just a gym--it's home.

From day one, the coaches made me feel welcome and pushed me at the same time. Every class has great energy, and the mix of boxing, BJJ, and MMA keeps things interesting. What really stands out is the community. Nobody's trying to show off everyone helps each other, whether you're hitting mitts for the first time or preparing for your first fight. The coaches genuinely care about your progress and make you feel like part of the team. If you're looking for a place in Phoenix to train, get fit, and actually enjoy it, this is it. Joining Pro Edge has easily been one of the best decisions I've made for myself.
