So, they have an ad on Facebook saying "Join our FREE six week challenge!". What they don't tell…read moreyou is that it's basically a way to get you to the location, make you feel like an idiot and push sales on you. And surprise, surprise. It's not free either. The six week challenge sounds great in black and white. However, you have to show up 3 days a week so they can care less about your work/personal life. Their hours are a joke weeknights. The latest class is 7:30. But the shade of gray is that you have to put a $499 deposit down. And if you are able to lose 25 lbs in the six week challenge, you get your money back. That's 4 lbs a week, not realistic so you won't ever see that money again. What annoyed me the most was how pushy this guy Jay was. He needed an answer immediately if I was to sign up yet couldnt take no for an answer. First impressions are real important to me. There was no geniune, caring personalities; they spew off their sales pitch to you and bank $499 to every naive person. This business is not worth a $499 deposit nor $145 a month. These are money hungry people that see dollar signs in their sleep. My advice? Save your money. Not worth it.

FREE 6 WEEK CHALLENGE: LEGIT OR SCAM? Read on to find out!…read more For all intents and purposes, this is based on my own experience as a person who was lured in to try the 6 week program for "Free". ILKB runs Facebook ads constantly saying they want ladies to come in to challenge themselves with a free six week challenge. What they don't tell you is that it really isn't free...and if you don't complete a "Successful" challenge, well, then they get to keep the required $499 deposit (taken before you can even consider starting the program). What is considered "Successful"? In order to get your $499 back, you MUST: Lose 25 pounds in 6 weeks OR lose 6% body fat. Attend 3 classes a week for 6 weeks. Check in online for each class (18 classes). Take pictures of your food each week and post online. Weigh in each week. I MUST REPEAT THIS: IF YOU DO NOT HAVE 25 POUNDS OR 6% BODY FAT TO LOSE, DO NOT ACCEPT! ALSO DO NOT ACCEPT IF YOU: Prone to injury (if you get injured, they keep 50%) Inflexible schedule (they keep 50%) Move away 20 miles+ (they keep 50%) I asked, repeatedly, if I would get my money back. They smiled, assured me, "Yes of course, THE ONLY REASON why we charge is because the financial incentive is a good motivator" and they would return it based on "Successful" completion of the challenge. Now, you know where this is going. Before even taking my body fat %, the owner looked at me and gladly signed me up. I couldn't realize why he was so happy to do so, but when the 6 weeks was up, I realized why. I'm 5'9", and I started the program around 127lbs. My body fat (using their highly questionable BIA device) was 24%. Clearly, the owner knew there was NO POSSIBLE WAY I was ever going to complete this challenge "successfully". I already ate a clean diet, weight lifted 4 times a week. I was easy money for him and he knew it. The moment they ran my card, they knew they turned a profit. Around Week 5, I got injured. My right hand was sprained and the doctor told me I couldn't box for about 3 weeks. I called to get out of the program, as the contract states that if you have an injury, you can get 50% back. But the owner hemmed and hawed, said that, "We could work around it. You're so close to being done." At first, I thought "Oh, maybe he wants me to get my deposit back, as I've only got 1 week left." I thought he was being kind when he adjusted the workout for me. I WAS WRONG. Because I completed the 6 weeks, I was ineligible to get the 50% back. So, do I think ILKB is a scam or legit? The workout is okay. It's your average HIIT workout that you can get at any pop up fitness store and if I had joined ILKB as a regular member and paid per class, I would say legit for sure. I won't call them scammers but I will say BUYER BEWARE! I think the only reason why the gym has any business at all is because of this scheme. They set up the challenge in waves and they have around 4-5 groups of challengers (they stagger the start weeks and cycle through the same 4-5 team names) with about 15 people per challenge group. Around 4 people completed the 6 weeks in my group. LET. THAT. SINK. IN. I don't need to spell out the math to see where most of their income is coming from. As long as they keep running ads, they'll have income. But businesses that practice misleading their customers only have so long before people catch on. Have a great day! :)

Awesome gym! I stopped in here while in the area for a wedding and had time to kill a few days…read morebefore because my fiance was int eh bridal party. I had some gear in the car so I googled bjj gyms in the area and this game up. Bunch of stand up guys (no pun intended). Everyone was super friendly and open to train. Being a visiting student from another gym you usually have the 'it feels like there is a target on my back' feeling. It was the total opposite. Everyone trained controlled and were super fun to get to work with. Both instructors trained with me which was unusual. Most places you don't see the black belts rolling with students and it is rare you will see them roll when a visiting black belt comes for fear they might lose in front of their students. I rolled with Joe and Alex. Both awesome instructors and both super talented. I had a great time and learned a new reversal that I hadn't seen before. Awesome school/awesome experience. I live 300 miles away and I wish they were a lot closer. I would recommend the gym highly for novice through advanced. I didnt get to see the class because it was just ending but they had a large kids program and the coaches really seemed to know how to work and communicate with the kids well for the limited time I saw them together, finding good kids instructors is hard so if you have kids this looks like a great choice to try out.
