I had a good first experience at 9Round Mountain View! I already do Solidcore, pilates, cardio at…read morehome, and personal training once a week, but I was looking for something different to add more variety to my routine and help me build strength and tone up. I've actually tried kickboxing before and didn't love it, so I was a little hesitant to give it another chance. I was also intimidated coming in because upper-body work and kicking are definitely not my strengths. RIP my noodle arms.... I think Sumit really made the experience for me. From the start, he was enthusiastic, kind, encouraging, and completely nonjudgmental. I definitely felt awkward throwing my baby punches, but he was incredibly patient and reminded me to take it easy and focus on learning the movements. I never felt pressured or embarrassed about being a beginner. The workout itself is only 30 minutes, but it's a good workout and goes by quickly! There are 9 stations, with a rotation every 3 minutes, so you're constantly moving and doing something different. The gym is open 24 hours and you can come whenever works for you since the exercises are guided on screens at each station. It makes it really easy to fit in a workout without having to plan around a specific class time. I ended up signing up for additional sessions afterward, which included complimentary wraps and gloves- and I love the lavender color I chose! :) I'm looking forward to challenging myself, getting stronger, and adding something new to my usual workouts. If you're new to kickboxing or feeling intimidated about trying it, I highly recommend coming in and training with Sumit!

I only visited once, so I normally would not leave a gym review based on a single visit. However,…read moresomething about this place felt off enough that I think it is worth mentioning. This is, for the most part, an unstaffed gym. I genuinely do not understand the business model/ value proposition. This is a 24-hour facility for members, but the space is extremely small, about the size of a one-bedroom apartment. There is only one bathroom, no shower, and no changing room, yet the membership costs over $200 per month. The workout itself is self-guided kickboxing, with about 8 to 9 stations and monitors telling you what to do. You work out on your own, so it could be just you in the entire gym, or you may end up sharing the space with another member(s) and rotating through the stations together. From what I understood, staff are NOT on site for most of those 24 hours (cost reduction). Trainers are only present during very limited windows, and if you happen to come during those times, they may help with your form. What does not seem well thought out is the overall setup: a 24-hour facility with no staff and no security on site for most of the time. *** I do not think they thought through the safety aspect of this setup. I would definitely not feel comfortable or safe using this facility during unstaffed hours. Unstaffed gyms raise several safety concerns: unauthorized access/tailgating, personal safety risks including harassment or assault, and the lack of immediate response in a medical emergency. At that price, I would expect not only better amenities and greater exercise variety, but also a much stronger sense of safety, supervision, and overall value. This basically feels like a small apartment gym with a few specialized kickboxing stations and no security on site for over $200/month.

I tried a few martial arts clubs before finding Tandez, and I immediately knew this was the right…read moreplace for me. I've now been training here for over a year. Before Tandez, I was with another club for seven years but wanted to explore something different. Tandez offers a range of martial arts, including Kali/Silat, Kali/Combat, Jeet Kune Do/MMA, and Boxing/Muay Thai. What truly sets this place apart is Sifu Tandez and his team of instructors. Sifu is a highly skilled, knowledgeable leader who genuinely cares about his students and their progress. The instructors are also exceptional--they're skilled, dedicated, and really know their stuff. I love coming here to learn; the training is practical, the atmosphere is friendly, and the group is always fun to be around.

I was really impressed with Sifu Adrian's level of expertise when I took his Self Defense seminar…read more It was free (a $75 value), so who can really complain? Upon arriving, I expected the participants to be entirely of newbies, but it was only me and another lady...and 3 other female students. The rest were strapping men. A lot of them... There was something intimidating when I was in the sea of academy students dressed in black. Grappling with a student scared me, but she was really friendly. The instruction of the seminar was very organized and informative, including a brief history of martial arts for us beginners. Initially, I was wondering how he could fill 4 hours, but there was no lag at all -- covering escape, submission, and pinning maneuvers. I wish I was able to pick up the moves as easily as others, but some maneuvers had a lot of steps to it and seemed a bit complicated for a non-active chica like myself. It was a Saturday afternoon well-spent. It was a little too much information all at once. I hope I have retained enough information to allow me to defend myself if I need it.
