This is a legit site although it does look questionable. But, its a great work out. Makes me sweat all the time! Great upbeat instructors that motivates you through the class. They play fun loud music to keep time. Just all around good workout. They give you everyday simple tips on how to be healthier. Very knowledgeable instructors, esp Wen! They correct your technique to prevent injuries and to produce more power!

Best thing I did for myself in 2013 was join this gym... I lost a ton of weight but gain a ton of confidence and tools that will help me keep it off. I also join a great family of people who are all invested in helping each maintain health and happiness. Intense workout, motivating staff. Great price. What else can you ask for?

Ilovekickboxing has changed my life. I've been able to reach my fitness goals and it's only been three months. The warm up is intense and I'm usually drenched with sweat after. The burn I feel only motivates me to keep going! The instructors are motivating and energetic. The "bag work" is a fun workout. If you are looking for a fun workout with fast results, ilovekickboxing is where you need to go. I'm a proud member at the east 43rd street location.

ILovekickboxing has been a great find for me. A friendly atmosphere coupled with approachable instructors makes it a great place to workout. I loved it so much that signed an unlimited contract then renewed for another 7 months.

If you are serious about getting into shape and being healthy then you need to give it a try.

Like others who purchased the Groupon, I signed up on my first day to make this a weekly occurrence. I've been coming at least 2x and sometimes up to 5x a week. The studio on the East side is awesome (though the lockers are tiny and get crowded - but you're in and out!) It is a community for sure and I always feel pushed in the right way to keep on going even if I want to quit. I feel the same way when I go to their other location in Chelsea. As a member, I have access to both east and west side locations which gives me NO EXCUSES!

The class changes with each instructors' style so its never the same type of conditioning in the first 15 minutes of class. Each time I've gone, I've gotten help to become better even though I've been part of the ILKB family since March. I definitely feel it after every time and think it's a great place to go to spice up your workouts or to make it your only place to go to - an unlimited month is only $125!

Try out their web special - you'll love it. Men and women both!

This place is awesome!
December 13, 2013

This place is awesome! I've belonged to or tried every chain gym in NYC (still go to Crunch) and had a trainer, and have tried many other small boutique workouts. To me its all about finding something that works for you, and if you are into the feel and movements of kickboxing and the release it gives you but would never really like fighting a real person, this is an awesome all-around workout. It's easy to push yourself and the rounds mimic interval style training so you totally feel the burn.

I'm not a workout person
December 12, 2013

I'm not a workout person. I don't even like to walk fast. But ILoveKickBoxing has definitely changed my outlook on taking a step towards my goals of being active. I didn't enjoy the first class, I wasn't that person yelling WOOOO I LOVE THIS after my first time. However, I would describe it as "love at second sight". I now move my schedule to make it to class, and get sad when I can't join my friends when they go.

I currently have the 67 class deal, solely because of my schedule. But after my first 3 days, I made the decision to make it to an unlimited plan once I clear my schedule a little more. I went to class by myself--something I would NEVER do--and actually enjoyed it. I am proud to be a part of ILoveKickBoxing, and my only regret is being too busy to make it to at least 5 days a week. Even though the warm ups are the toughest part for me (I'm not a cardio person, and will run out of breath after 10 steps), I try to do a little more after each class. I've yet to do every single thing without taking a break, but I truly believe I will get there. The instructors are great motivators and the music makes me want to shake my butt so the vibe definitely helps. I would certainly recommend it, even to the laziest of the bunch!

The workout is extremely intense, it's inevitable that it will leave you exhausted, sweaty, and ready to come back again and again for that feel-good training session!

The instructors can be described in three words: Friendly, Motivational, and Passionate. The moment you walk into the facility, you are greeted with a smile and welcome. Every single class is different as the instructors introduce different exercises to work every part of the body! It is clear that the instructors know and love what they do and that is kick boxing.

At first it may seem intimidating for someone who has never kick boxed before, but with awesome instructors such as Amanda, Raquel, Seth, Maurice, and many others, kick boxing will become a crazy, high intensity, kick-$#*! work out session that will leave you feeling good and looking great! You'll love it!

I joined ILKB 10 months ago and it has been one of the greatest decisions I've ever made! After the first class I felt in love with that studio and the people who work there. ILKB classes are so energetic, powerful and different every time that the more you take them the more you want them. I have seen changes not only in my body but my confidence and health. It is perfect to get all that stress from work released. The staff truly care about the members. They keep pushing you to go harder in each class, encourage you to fulfill your fitness goals and to improve your technique. Their positive energy is inevitably contagious! I love ILKB.com!

I absolutely love ilovekickboing Chelsea. The classes are a great escape from the boring workouts at the gym. The instructors are energetic at every class and they play great music during the workout. At first I was worried about getting less of a workout during peak times however sharing bag makes the workout more fun. Each class is 1 hour and that hour is the highlight of my day.

ilovekickboxing.com CHELSEA!
I've been trying desperately to find a good gym routine that balances weight training and cardio, but sometimes I don't find enough time for both. That is - until I stumbled upon ilovekickboxing.com. I have always heard that kickboxing is one of the best full-body workouts, so I wanted to give it a try. After riding out my 10 groupon classes, I was absolutely sure that I wanted to commit for an unlimited year membership because a) it's an amazing, constantly motivating workout, and b) it's fun! This is a class that I will never get bored of (like what happens after a few days of running on the treadmill), and the instructor are super inspiring. I've already gotten a few friends hooked as well! I'd go on forever about how much I love this place, but I need to run to a class! So, let me leave you with this advice: Do it. You'll love it. The end.

I've been looking for a kickboxing studio to stop being a lazy bum. Gym was not an option because I just don't like it, and I sort of feel uncomfortable around muscle maniacs. I stumbled upon a Groupon deal for ILKB and decided to try it out, especially since the place was down the block from my job.

The first class was a killer. The first 20 minutes or so is very intense cardio and conditioning. You will be sweating as much as you would in hot yoga. Then comes the best part: punching/kicking the bag to your heart's desire. The instructors are really (and I mean really) energetic and great at motivating you. Every class they teach you different combinations getting you to work out your entire body. After my first class I ended up signing up for a whole year! It's really fun and really hard at the same time. The instructors really make it their goal to push you to your potential, and help you reach your fitness goal.

The staff there is so nice and so helpful. They are always ready and willing to help in any way, shape or form if you need it. The facility itself is gorgeous, neat and very tidy. The locker rooms even have everything you could possibly need. All you need to bring is a towel, water bottle, a lock, and yourself!

They don't call it ILoveKickboxing for no reason... I pretty much go every day now.

I look forward to each class! I purchased the $50 groupon deal back in July for 10 classes that included gloves. I quickly joined after my first class with Sam and Jenny. I've been attending their classes approximately twice a week for the past 3 months. I have not lost any weight so far... but I noticed my arms and legs are getting firmed!

Each class that I attended was fun and exciting! The first 15 minutes workout is the best! It's hard but the trainers are there to push you and motivate you. After the workout, you do 5 rounds of 3 mins combos with the bag! Finally, the class ends with partner drills. I feel sore every time after class. No pain, no gain! All the trainers at Chelsea location are amazing!

P.S. I truly miss Sam and Jenny!

Re: Midtown East 42nd Street Location

The best full-body workout you'll ever get! 60 minutes of high energy + high intensity sessions that will definitely get you the results you're looking for.

The first 15 minutes is a killer "warm-up" - and you better do 'em right or you get 20 more burpees! There's no hiding from these energetic instructors; they are there to really support you and help you meet your goals. Then there's 6 rounds of 3-minute combos: jab, cross, hook, upper cut, front house kick, round house kick... and maybe you'll end with a superman punch or a flying round house! The best part is, these bags don't punch back, so you can hit 'em as hard as you want! The classes end with partner work, so you can give and receive feedback on your technique.

The facility is always clean, and they provide all bathroom and shower essentials. Classes start and end on time, which is very important for a girl who's always on the go. Instructors are always available to help you get that extra stretch after class, or just to answer any questions. This location is super convenient, located close to the Grand Central Terminal. As of late, they've been adding more and more classes - they're even open during the holidays (although on a limited schedule).

So go ahead and give it a try! The music is always poppin', everyone is super friendly, and the workouts are so much fun! You won't regret it. You'll be joining a family: there's member appreciation nights, themed parties, and mini-competitions to get everyone motivated. Hurry and get your free gloves with your first try-out! Say whaaaaat? East Siiiiide!

The classes are so much fun, each instructor has a different set of reps, but they are similar enough that you get the same kind of work out each time: one that kicks your butt! I started with the Groupon but joined after just one class. I've already referred a few friends. I believe in it, and so do my friends, the more they see the physical and mental changes in me!

I joined the 43rd Street East Side iLoveKickboxing school in May 2013 and it's been the BEST decision I've made in a long time. The workouts are intense, invigorating and never EVER the same. The instructors are courteous, friendly, energetic, passionate and knowledgeable. Their choice in music is great and gets me pumped. I enjoy coming to every class. The instructors give you your money's worth. I HIGHLY recommend this to anyone.
