My Kempo

This is a great place to find a bunch of young guys who want to put on safety gear and punch you in face.

Check it out! They give one free trial day, they dont pester you nor scam you like other gyms (coughcough a specific gym in schaumburg, rip me off, lost $ 160 +injured), the place is small yet very clean (everything needed to learn is there). There is one main coach who teaches boxing and random professionals that help out and train there too. The boxing program is for any age, (8yrs-​30+??) When there are young and adult students there, usually the two coaches will split them for more teacher to student interaction. So far i’ve been with this place for about a month and I love it, it reminds me of high school, where there is a coach that makes you work your butt off (i sweat here more than I did in cross country and hot yoga… bring an extra t=shirt to change into at the end b/​c yours will be drenched when the hour is done… seriously). The program is for people who want to have a good cardio workout or learn how to fight (or the art of boxing). Students usually do warm up exercises for the first 15 – 20 mins of class, then we do shadow boxing in front of the mirror while coach goes around to give us tips. Sometimes we also practice with the professionals in the ring or with each other, depending on what coach wants. Overall this place is great and so are the students and everyone involved there. The prices are also very reasonable, but first go in and try a free class to see if you like it first! Oh! and btw there are males and females in the boxing program, so who ever you are, dont feel intimidated, just do it!.. or try at least lol =)
