When we lived in Bellevue, WA I used to take a Krav Maga boxing class. However, I decided I wanted…read moreto try boxing again here in Austin, TX. So, I decided to try Title Boxing Gym on Research Blvd. I signed up for a 60-minute boxing class with 15 minutes of core work. The energy was high, the coach motivating, and the workout not for the faint at heart. The class started with a warmup and gradually transformed into a fast paced, intense cardio and strength class. The class included boxing fundamentals with strength conditioning that really pushed you to the limit. No prior boxing experience was needed, although one of the managers stepped me through the basics. In the boxing class, the coach called out 1 2 3 4 5 6, which referred to the standard punch number system coaches use to call out combinations quickly. The standard meanings are 1 = Jab (lead hand, straight), 2 = Cross (rear hand, straight), 3 = Lead hook, 4 = Rear hook, 5 = Lead uppercut and 6 = Rear uppercut. To be honest, she was calling out the number so fast at first, it was hard to keep up. At my prior class, they would say jab, cross, upper, and hook. She was kind to come over and ask if I needed help. When I told her I was not used to hearing just the numbers, she added the description. After a short while, I was able to catch on. We performed combinations and ran around the room or did burpees (hate burpees) between sets. Title gym is clean, organized, and set up to handle a room of boxing rigs. The music, lighting, and overall vibe helped keep motivation high. Our coach was super motivating yet challenging. The front desk manager was kind to show me around Title gym. OMG...this was one of the most intense workouts. After taking the boxing class, I was literally soaking wet. My guess is that I will fall fast asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow.

No set class times, show up and start your workout. I have a very busy and changing schedule with…read moreseasonal kids activities. Now I can leave work on my schedule and workout at times that fit my schedule. Small group atmosphere is great, other program style workouts you get into larger classes and the instructors are just a voice on the mic. 9Round the moves are easy, quick to teach and the team is there for personal corrections and motivation. But my main favorite about 9Round is the intensity of the workout. I am able to warmup much quicker than expected and based on the heart rate zones will spend almost the entire time in the green zone or higher. In a 33 minute workout, I will usually spend 15 minutes or more above 84% heart rate. On those days when you just don't feel like working out (luckily I have a workout buddy) punching the bags is a great release for the frustration. It is pretty much a guarantee that I will leave dripping sweat and in a better mood than when I walked in.

I have to admit I was a bit skeptical in the beginning but this has turned out to be absolutely…read moreperfect for both me and my wife. Vanessa and Rebecca are amazing and truly passionate about their business and customers care and personalization. We get a very personal and personalized workout each time. The best part about 9 Round in general is no set class times and and an excellent workout in just 30 minutes - for all fitness levels and ages, combining that with an awesome location (for us) and the greatly helpful and accommodating duo of Vanessa and Rebecca - this has been our best bet. Both of us are feeling healthier and lighter. Kickboxing also helps relieve stresses in a good way while getting a great workout. Love the vibes and motivation of this place.

We are so grateful and highly recommend this school!

Unexpected fee after cancellation + refund refused…read more We enrolled our son, Talen, at Johns Gym in Austin and withdrew/cancelled his membership in April as a result of a blood clot and condition that does not allow him to box anymore. After the cancellation, we were still charged an additional fee. We contacted the gym right away to request a refund, but we were told we missed the reimbursement/refund window, so a refund would not be provided. I understand businesses have policies, but this felt frustrating and unfair given that we had already withdrawn him. I'm leaving this review so other families clearly understand the billing and refund timelines before signing up. I'd appreciate the gym revisiting this situation and making it right.
