Absolutely love ILKB. Been the L.A. Fitness route and tried Orange Theory but L.A. Fitness didn't offer much as beyond the elliptical and a few strength exercises I don't know a whole lot and confidence wasn't high. As to Orange Theory it was definitely next level but the price was too. This year however, came across I Love Kickboxing on Facebook and decided to give it a try. After the first class it was safe to say I was hooked. They push you hard and you feel it from start to finish but the variety of routines, even repetitions make it so much more fun than your standard class. The instructors are all awesome and they definitely take the time to talk anytime you have questions on nutrition or simple inquiries and they each have their own personalities and the way they teach the classes feels unique. Nothing feels overly sterile or staged. The mats and bags are always clean, as is the location in-general. Each class starts off with a warm up jog and mixed into that are several full body and targeted muscle group workouts and then some stretching and then you get into the bag work. You learn various combinations and you learn proper technique and at the same time it acts as a great stress reliever as you can vent on the bag and "leave it all on the mat" as it were. Closes off with some more stretches. This was the fourth week today and aside from shirts getting a little looser through the chest and shoulders I can feel my flexibility and balance improving already. I also find myself less stressed and more calm in-general. The classes are fun and while they push you hard they also encourage you to not go past your limit and they will help you reach new limits very quickly. All in all it's a very fun experience and if you find it hard to stay motivated or go to the gym and keep the same flat routine going, I highly recommend ILKB and in-particular ILKB Hurontario. The staff quickly make you feel like part of the family and they will help you not only lose weight but gain more confidence in yourself and discover plenty of hidden potential.
