I decided to look into places that would teach me the basics and I found KickHouse. From the moment I entered the doors, I felt so welcomed and comfortable. The instructor Khom is nothing short of amazing and accommodating and the class is just as supportive. After that first session, I knew this is where I belonged. I have been active member for over a month now and the sparkle has not faded a bit. I highly recommend KickHouse Pittsburgh and don't forget to ask for Khom .

These guys are here to teach a great skill and care about you. I have been to other gyms in the area, where the owner/coach doesn't even know your name. For them it's all about the money.

Who wants to get yelled at by people who think they are better than you because they are fit? Who wants to feel ashamed about their bodies by instructors who are supposed to be there to help and motivate? Won't be me. Never again. Bye Felicia

They make every new member feel extremely comfortable and welcomed. They have a great focus on technique - they are constantly making sure that everyone is doing the moves correctly and will help you adjust if you're not. They're also extremely vocal with encouragement and just letting you know when you're killing it. Besides all of that, any class you take here will be a great workout and have you leave feeling incredible and energized.

Let me start by saying, I have tried so many outlets to assist with my fitness and health…read more It started with Ballys, then went to LA fitness Lucille Roberts Planet Fitness Curves The Kroc BLINK back to Planet Fitness various aerobic sessions (Zumba and Tabata) and finally neighborhood walks/jogs. None of these things kept my attention. I got bored after about two weeks. I am a quitter and I am someone that does not like challenges. I love my comfort zone and I love to eat my feelings. It's what I do. Stout has changed that! My very first class, western boxing, taught by Ty. I don't know a thing about boxing. I do not watch boxing, I know some big names but I do not watch. So I show up at 5:20pm, I'm just standing there, ready to run out (again, quitter). He walks over, introduces himself, and tells me to warm up with shadow boxing. I said I don't know how to shadow box. He gave me the option of jumping rope or jumping jacks. I didn't want to do that, I don't know why but I didn't. he said you got this. I immediately said, ya know what I do. Stoutpgh and their staff is not intimidating AT ALL. It may feel that way if you have never stepped in the facility or if you are thinking about previous Arts schools and maybe they were jerks. Everyone is helpful, constantly guiding you and correcting you with positive reinforcement but also praising you when you do something good! I do love hearing "Good Kia" or "Nice Kia" or "Great job Kia" Class two, it was a bag class. I met Brody, he introduced himself. I stood in front of the heavy bag confused. before I could even get his attention, he came over and assisted me. I walked out of that class throwing 1, 2, and 3 (didn't know what a 3 was), and a switch kick. NICE! I went to class three, signed up that day. Zack, said you have another free class. I said, I don't need it. lets get this party started!!! I want you all to know, I am 44, 4'11, and 263.7lbs. I do not feel like the "fat chick", or the "old chick", I feel like a person. Stoughpgh let's you be a person, not a label. Many times we think we have to get in shape before starting something to get us in shape. How bass ackwards is that??? I didn't think Stoutpgh was for me, I didn't think I could do it. Boy, was I wrong! It is for me, it is for EVERYONE and EVERY BODY!!!! Again, EVERY BODY!!!!!! I look forward to class, actually look forward to going. I am so surprised by that, haha! Staff Cleanliness Availability of Classes Prices Oh last thing, I am funny about what I eat throughout the day. I know I have to train so the idea of just eating anything, I stopped that. I know what will make me feel sluggish, bloated, or just gross. I care about what I take in so that I can be productive during class. No one said anything to me about how/what to eat but it's like my brain clicked on a light that has clearly been dark for a long time.

When my gym of 4+ years closed I was oddly relieved like having ended a relationship that hit it's…read moreexpiration date. Yet just like ending a relationship even one that ran it's course, I was displaced and unsure what to do next. I, along with a slew of other ladies turned friends from our old gym began trying out some other places. In total I went to 5 other gyms before trying Fit4Life Boxing Club. I found some common problems in the other places. Lack of classes, lack of cleanliness,lack of class times, lack of variety, they all equaled lack of interest, but this "dating" period was kind of fun, dare I say exciting to try out so many different places. I and my gym crew prefer a place with structured programs. I do have a basic membership to a box gym and though I know how to work out, I prefer someone tell me what to do. It keeps me accountable and makes me feel like I really got the most out of my hour. So enter the boxing club, I was really unsure about this place at first. Me and two gym friends came here during a free week they were offering at the end of the summer. I had done no contact kickboxing classes, but that did not really prepare me for what was in store. By the time the class was over I was drenched and exhausted, but I wasn't sold. I don't know why. It was an excellent workout, it was fun, and went fast! But I think I was a little scared of commitment. After being "married" to a gym I wanted to leave well before it was over, I had cold feet. Luckily they were offering some good intro rates off the free week and me and my posse signed up for the month. It didn't take a month. Within about a week we all knew this was where we wanted to be. As it turned out not just a couple of us but basically everyone that went to my old gym joined here. I also invited other friends and co-workers to try it out and they loved it and joined as well. So to anyone looking for a challenging workout that's fun, stop in! Well not now because COVID-19, but hopefully soon. They have classes 7 days a week. Super early mornings, 5am classes are awesome, to 7 pm classes and in between. They have great instructors who know you. Out of classes of 30-50 people they still know your name. They are very helpful and encouraging the whole class. Each class is different so you never have to work through the same workout. The first class is always free and there are many different options for memberships from punch cards to 12 month membership plans. Nothing really helps get the aggression out than going 15 rounds with a heavy bag! Lastly they have great programs for kids and offer classes specific to people with Parkinson disease called Rock Steady. Fit4Life is a great gym that also gives back to the community. I am very happy I found this place.

Gyms can be intimidating and full of body shame if you don't fit a certain standard. Tedesco is none of those things. The first time I walked in for a 5 am boot camp class I was greeted with enthusiasm. It has been over ten years since I've done anything like it, so I was nervous and also realistic about my abilities. The coach demonstrated every activity and also worked with me through modifications where I needed them. What was also refreshing was seeing all sorts of body types in the class. This is definitely a place that welcomes and embraces everyone who walks in the door. They offer fitness boot camp, kickboxing and strength boot camp classes along with open gym time. I've attended all of them and really enjoyed every one. What's great is that they are something different every day. Each day focuses on a different muscle but the order and which activity changes. They also regularly host challenges with different themes. For example, I'm currently in the "Little Black Dress" challenge where in addition to the workouts, we get meal plans and nutrition consults. You can also just come to the gym to do your own workout. I never thought I'd be someone who looked forward to 5 am workouts, but Tedesco converted me. This place is amazing, so if you are out east and looking for a gym, definitely check them out.
