Kickboxing is probably the best workout/stress relief combo you can do (and who couldnt use a little stress relief these days). This studio is well equipped with plenty of high quality bags. The owner and instructor, Alan, is friendly and his classes are tons of fun. You will sweat, you will leave exhausted, but you will feel fantastic afterwards.There are plenty of classes to chose from during weekdays and weekends although I wish they offered the 8am class during the week. Theres usually a 9:30 which can be a little tricky with a normal work schedule.Everyone else I have met at this gym has been friendly and welcoming and theres a wide mix of beginners so if youve never done a kickboxing workout before, this gym is perfect for learning the ropes. The classes dont focus on technique all that much and its more fitness oriented. The music is great too so it feels a bit like a dance party at times.Now that gyms are allowed to be open there are outside bags available for people who want to workout in the open air. The inside is well ventilated too with plenty of big fans and a massive garage door that remains open.I 100% recommend this gym for all ages and skill levels. I believe you can get a free pass if its your first time, so definitely check it out!

If you enjoy waking up early and excited to get a good workout in and then show up and wait outside for 20+ minutes for your trainer to not show up and not text or call you that they’re not coming multiple times then ya this is the place for you.

Extermily friendly people, very clean, I am really happy to signed up with them.

When I moved down to Cali I was in need of getting healthy. I had always wanted to try kickboxing and so decided to challenge myself and get back in shape. I am so glad I found CKO laguna hills. I have now been going for almost 3 years and highly recommend it. They offer outdoor bags which is great and variety of class times. Allen the instructor is great and really helped push me to keep at it. It is an intense hour but you will feel great afterwards. I challenged myself and lost 37lbs with CKO. They offer great packages and awesome trials. Definitely recommend!!!

I started working out at CKO kickboxing Laguna Hills a little over 2 years ago. I have played and coached sports at the highest levels. In addition, I have also worked in fitness facilities as both a coach/manager. I understand the challenges, have very high standards and do not write reviews often. The one hour CKO kickboxing workout is very good HIIT (high intensity interval training.) It gets you in shape, while having a good time. Allen, the owner, is not only personable and kind, but he is also a great instructor. He keeps the facilities clean and there is plenty of parking. Recently, I have taken some private sessions with Allen and another gym member. This has helped both of us learn and take our workouts to the next level. All different levels train here. Beginners are always welcome. I highly recommend CKO Kickboxing Laguna Hills.

Got my whole family doing CKO! After doing it for 20 months I guess I can call myself an addict! Im in aerobic shape now plus much stronger. The 60 minute classes go by quickly, you sweat like a dog but have fun doing it! The instructors are all fun and personable. Everyone in the class goes at their own pace. Everyone is encouraging and friendly. Highly recommend you check it out then drag your family with you 😁

I am not a big exercise person. I LOVE CKO Laguna Hills. The work outs are so addicting. There is such a thrill of accomplishment after each class.The work out changes moment to moment so that you have no time to wonder how much time is left. I am often surprised when it is over as the time seems to pass swiftly. Routines switch up from class to class (so you cant memorize them to tell how much time is left). I joined to build muscle. It worked! I also have better stamina, energy, balance and coordination. You can make it as easy or as hard as you like. I appreciate that they underline that throughout their work outs and give alternative exercises if one is too hard. Every age, size and fitness level works for this and you see it in the classes. Great diversity. Fun and light hearted and motivating. - Kirsten D

I took classes here for about a year and it was always a great workout. The trainers are very energetic and helpful regardless of your fitness level.You do not need kickboxing experience - CKO is perfect for beginners and also great conditioning. You wont regret coming here!

Allen and Lavender are amazing!! I have regained muscle mass, trimmed and toned and finally feel that I can defend myself, should the need occur. Thank you for getting me in the best shape ever!!

Made me strong and fit 💪

As a working mother, I have been looking for a convenient place where I can workout with my 13 year old daughter. Most places have a min age but I was delighted that she was able to join me in the CKO adult class! I found CKO to be the perfect venue. The trainers move around the room so it feels like you have a personal trainer too! Allen and his team make working out fun!!

The way I would describe CKO, Mega AWSOmE! The more I go, the more I like it. It is kind of addicting, fun, motivating. No time to get bored. I give it an A+++. So many things in one, such learning how to defend yourself, loosing weight, learning how to control body movements and balance. I highly recommended if you dont go, YOU ARE totally MISSING OUT in some good stuff.

This workout was the perfect mix of challenging and rewarding! I was a little intimidated prior to my first class, but Allen ensured I was all set with my wraps and gloves and showed me the basics prior to the class starting. If you are looking for a GREAT workout and are motivated by working out in a group environment, CKO is perfect for you.

I attended my first class yesterday (6/22/15)Best workout I have ever done. It was intense but the instructor allows you to go at your own pace. Instructor was very helpful and professional. Definitely returning.

Hands down, my favorite gym! From the friendly, welcoming staff, to the intense workouts, I look forward to coming to CKO Laguna Hills 3 to 4 times a week. I try to come on every single one of my days off. Coming from a body building background, 510, 240 lbs of lean muscle, I needed cardio to do less weightlifting while staying lean. Well, 2 years later, I fluctuate between 208 and 212 while maintaining a strong muscular body without lifting weights. I have been a member of CKO for over 2 years, and stopped weightlifting entirely about a year ago. People regularly ask me about my diet and weightlifting routine, and are shocked to hear I dont lift weights at all. I have never felt healthier, or had more energy than I do now. Active resistance training is key, the harder you hit the bag, the stronger youll get. Try a class, youll love it.

I loved kickboxing at CKO! If you want a full body workout that keeps you moving the whole time then this is your place! Allen was both informative and motivating. I highly recommend you check out CKO in Laguna Hills!

Great total body workout. Results will come fast with a reasonable amount of effort on your part. Staff and facility are very nice.

After attending 200+ classes, I have to admit Im a CKO addict!!Whenever anyone would tell me they were addicted to their workout, I would secretly roll my eyes. Come on, no one believes that!Well, now Im one of those crazy people, and its all CKOs fault. Heres why:1. Hitting and kicking a heavy bag, it turns out, is super fun (and therapeutic!).2. The music and energy are motivating and fun and the members and instructors are super friendly & encouraging.3. It never gets old, and its NEVER a waste of time. The workouts vary every single time, even with the same instructor. And, even though the workouts are definitely challenging, I always want more.4. The results speak for themselves. These workouts plus the 10-week challenge that is offered periodically have noticeably changed my physique.Come see for yourself why these classes are so addicting...youll be glad you did! And dont be intimidated--there are all different ages and fitness levels of men and women, and there are new members in almost every class. See you there!

Joining CKO is possibly the best decision I have ever made! I had never done kickboxing prior to joining, but I didnt find that that posed an issue at all; CKO is open to all levels. Allen genuinely cares about each individual student and their progress; he pushes you to your limit while giving you the motivation to keep going.It definitely is a hard workout but its also really fun; its not one of those workouts where you cant wait till the class is over, the class hour goes by so fast because you actually have a really good time working out.CKO has not only made me stronger physically, but mentally as well; I tend to get really bad anxiety, but I feel like CKO really helped with that. I definitely have a higher self-esteem and I generally just feel more confident and better about myself. If youre thinking about joining, JOIN!

Great place, awesome people and perfect workout to get back in shape 👏🏼 CAUTION ! High risk of dependency 😍😃

Good fun hard workout! My 10 yr old daughter did one class with me, she held her own with all the adults and said Dad, that was fun!

I found out about CKO via Groupon and started going in June, 2017... was looking for a workout to push my energy level up a notch. After attending about 3x per week in June, I signed on the dotted line and joined! This work out will getcha movin and make ya sweat like crazy. Everyone there, trainers and members, are amazing and very motivational. Love it!

OMG!!! Where to start!!! Lets start with Allen! Owner, bad ass trainer, motivator, total goof ball and makes you feel like you are part of the family from jump! I was previously at MMA in Tustin full of BJJ guys and the focus wasnt on the actual workouts of kickboxing but more on the sparring aspect.. Allen, Sheryl, Chelsea and Lavender are insane!!! Allen is amazing! he changes up the routines constantly, makes it fun and manages to combine tons of... punch/kick combos, ab work, leg work, cardio and makes you want to come back day after day!!! Addictive is an understatement! Sheryl, Chelsea and Lavender bring high energy and some weights into the mix! Im on my 4th week and every day I notice that I am stronger and getting more in shape! Allen and Chelsea have both completely transformed their bodies! They are an absolute inspiration! The gym is super clean and inviting and Allen goes the extra mile to make sure you have a stellar experience every time! bonuses of CKO... is that all the trainers encourage you to go at your own pace and just to be the best you can be! Also class times are so flexible! Allen, you made me a member for life! Come in for your first class free at CKO Laguna Hills! and your life will never be the same! PS I have tried going to the regular gym a day or two and it doesnt even compare to that amazing workouts from CKO! Thank you Allen!!!
