Needless to say, I have to sit A LOT. 9 Round has come to my rescue with an open schedule, great workouts, great coaching if you come when they are available, and a clean and efficient environment. My life is so unpredictable right now, but they are always there to support and encourage when I need it most. I thoroughly enjoy the workouts (who doesn't love to punch and kick things?!?!) and the access to the facilities without having to worry about making a set class time is a game changer.

We decided to enroll our four-year-old son in the program as well, and everything went smoothly during that process. Arrangement was month-to-month, price is fair, and the facility and program came highly recommended from other professionals in the area that I trust deeply. As the weeks have passed bringing my kids to class, I pivoted from LA fitness, and my core focus on adult basketball league and hoopin, and decided to sign up for personal boxing classes. After a couple of classes in, I'm slowly improving at the footwork and pivoting/shifting weight, and I'm feeling more confident.. I run a large and successful organization, which includes a sales team that's highly focused on customer service and execution... And, I've been shown nothing but respect and excellent customer service, when it comes to working with Ekata. I trust my own personal training and health, as well as my kids, in their program.

He provides a rigorous curriculum that truly tests you physically and mentally. His original Thailand style of training will challenge you like no other workout. We consider ourselves a family, at World Muay Thai. Everyone supports each other and makes the class fun. Don't be mistaken though, we sweat and scream together :-) I know that I will continue to train with Kru Pong for years to come. I have grown so much as an athlete, and generally, as a person. He truly cares about his students and is passionate about guiding us toward reaching our best selves. He is strict, that is for sure, but he gives the tough love that helps you grow.

Whether you're a fan of MMA or boxing, this place has it all--and more! The atmosphere buzzes with positive energy.

I'm not just a fan--I'm a testament to what Coach Jeffrey stands for. Both him and the school earn every one of these five stars. Come experience it--once you do, you won't look anywhere else. This place doesn't just meet the standard--it sets it!

This probably sounds like an exaggeration, but I genuinely think over the 9 years I trained at Iron Fist, every single student loved Master Patrick, his classes, and his team.

Here are the highlights: - High intensity classes that will challenge you and make you sweat. - Supportive community amongst students and trainers. This is a no judgement zone and the people are there to help you succeed in your fitness goals. - Emphasis on how kickboxing skills can be transferable to self defense skills. - Great results! After participating in the transformation challenge my brother went down 3 BMI! - Personalized training even in a large group setting. I appreciate that the trainers are always checking my technique and pushing me to challenge myself. As a result, I always have a new goal in the gym and a new skill to work on. I'm never bored in class! Shout out to Nikki, Gabby, and their staff for making CKO such a supportive environment. These folks understand that fitness is about building confidence in yourself and your health more than anything else. This is not just a weight loss program, but a community that will support you in changing habits and conquering self doubt. Five stars well deserved!

This was a great gym, however the owner has let it go over the last year. I wrote a review at the…read morebeginning of the year stating how dirty the gym was., however the owner responded and had it cleaned, so i removed the review. Since then, it has progressively gotten to a point where it is the worst it has ever been. The only cleaning this gym gets is the employees empty the trash. All the other cleaning is left to the members who are good about wiping down the machines. However don't look at the floor, vents, or corners, or the lower parts of any machine, as they have not been cleaned in months. I have pictures I have taken of crumbs by a machine in the open that has been there for months. Its so dirty, i decided it was time to give the new Planet Fitness a try. I know many others are talking about the same issues and hoping it gets fixed, before they decide to leave as well. **Update/ Response**Thank you for your response. You are correct the one picture of the elliptical was from earlier in the year when I left my last review and deleted it after you cleaned the gym and I stated this in my review, however all the other pictures are from last week, including what you call a mat, you said you haven't had in 2 years. It is not a mat, its the base of a podium type stand next to the cubicles by the front entrance. It does look like it hasn't been cleaned in 2 years though . Not sure who the new management is since you have been there for years. You have obviously chosen to ignore the cleanliness of the gym, as I am not talking about it being dirty from overnight, I am talking and showing pictures of things that have not been cleaned in months. I didn't take pictures of the area in front of the treadmills or the speakers by the stretching area or every corner or lower part of each piece of equipment. They are all disgusting.

While we've encountered some good gyms, I can honestly say that Gracie Humaita Valencia blows them all out of the water. Professor Mario has many years of experience working with kids, and it truly shows. He has an incredible ability to make every student feel valued, supported, and encouraged, no matter their skill level. The entire coaching staff is just as exceptional--they share the same professionalism, attention to detail, and high-level technical knowledge. The gym culture is another standout. Effort is consistently recognized and rewarded, and a healthy mindset is taught alongside excellent technique. My kids are challenged by great training partners and genuinely look forward to every class. We are so thankful to have found this gym and highly recommend it to any family looking for a positive, high-quality jiu-jitsu environment for their kids
