I’ve been going to ILKB Hurontario for about 6 months now and I can honestly say this has become my happy place. Does the warm up make you want to die (or kill someone, most likely the trainer)? YES. Do the bag rounds leave you so sweaty you could literally slip and slide your way across the mats back to the change rooms? YES. When you are first starting to train there does your body hurt in places you didn’t know you could hurt? YES. But is it an incredible workout? Do the trainers take the time to show you how to properly execute the moves so as not to hurt yourself? Do they remember your name each and every time you walk through the doors? Do they and the other participants in the class encourage you, keep the energy level high, and make you want to work as hard as you possibly can? ALSO YES. Not only do you burn through a zillion calories (okay maybe 800ish) in an hour long class but you have fun doing it. You can be brand new, totally uncoordinated, tripping over your own feet, or you can be a superstar, knocking down bags with your front kicks and doubling up on classes – it doesn’t matter, everyone is treated the same way. Like family. If you are looking for a place to get a killer workout, meet some great people and get in the best shape of your life, this is the place.
