I love this gym, its a great way to fit in a GREAT workout with a short amount of time. No prior knowledge of kickboxing is required and is very female friendly. The trainers are great and will adapt workouts to your needs. Could not recommend this place higher.

I stopped in for a workout during a business trip to KY. I’m a longtime 9 Round member in another state. Very cool gym space and location in the Highlands. The owner Matt put me through a great pad workout and John had great motivational energy. I highly recommend this gym for a great workout. IMHO there’s no better way to relieve stress than throwing hooks at the heavy bag.

I love 9 round kickboxing and the way the workouts always keep you on your toes and will always leave you with a satisfying sweat! 💪 Also the trainers are amazing and helpful even if you have never kick boxed before!! Matt and his team are a dream!!!

9 Rounds is a great place to workout for everyone. The Owner Matt is the embodiment of greatness. His skill and knowledge of the arts and the level of comfort he makes with each one of his members makes 9rounds the best gym in town by a landslide. The trainers are always well liked and have the skill base needed to help everyone improve no matter your skill level.

I loved this place. I was at St. Matthew last year before they closed down and had moved to Highlands. To be honest, the first two weeks, I was uncomfortable but I didnt give up and still going there more often. Then I became more comfortable there now than before. I still love when they have different stations every time I book workout. The trainers are amazing and very helpful. I love 30 minutes intense workout.

I love 9Round! The trainers are so nice and helpful and it’s constantly moving so you don’t get tired of the same old moves or exercises. Always keeping you on your toes (literally)! Toned my body and feel so much better about myself! Love it.

I unfortunately only got to spend about 3 months at 9round before the pandemic hit, but I loved my time there. From the motivational & friendly trainers, the easy to follow but great workouts, to only being 30 minutes, this gym is awesome! I always left feeling strong & accomplished and I was always motivated to go, which is half the battle in exercise. I would recommend it to everyone & hope to get back there in 2021!

I’ve been working out at 9Round Highlands for two years now and it has been the best fitness experience I’ve had! Matt and the whole training team are incredibly welcoming, encouraging, professional and experienced. They keep the workouts engaging and I’ve seen a lot of positive results between weight loss and increased strength - I can finally do a real push up! The facility and equipment are clean and the trainers do a great job of sanitizing between stations. I’m very happy to be a part of the 9Round Highlands family, and I would highly recommend a membership to family and friends!

9Round is by far the most fun, upbeat, and challenging class type I have taken! I love the energy and the trainers encourage just the right amount. Its less expensive than many other workout classes and I certainly get a phenomenal workout every time I go! Who has time to fit an hour long workout into their day? The 30 minute sessions are perfect for stress relief and building muscle and tone while not interfering with your day! Theyve limited class sizes during the pandemic, so I still feel safe and socially distanced while getting a great workout!

For people that want a killer workout in just 30 minutes, this is for you! Great trainers and workouts changed everyday throughout the 9 round stations. Highly recommend especially for those 2021 resolution seekers trying to change it up with their fitness routine!

My favorite place to workout! I’ve been going for a few months now and the classes are always intense with new exercises each time and I get a major sweat every time I go! All the coaches are amazing!

I have been working out here for over 2 years now and I’m still obsessed with it! Trainers are amazing and take the time to teach you the right techniques and get to know you personally. It’s a quick 30 minute workout that kicks my butt every time! Each day the workouts change and you are challenged with something new. The gym and trainers are very sanitary due to covid and are constantly wiping down equipment. 10/10 would recommend. (First class is free so go try it out and get hooked like me).

Great clean facility and friendly and knowledgeable staff. Thanks!

Great Team of trainers and a great workout in only 30 minutes!

Went to this location for close to a year before I had to move away, but I still go to 9Round where I am now. Between diet changes and this gym, I lost about 30lbs. The staff were always great. They got to know me very well and would always help if I wasnt sure how to do an exercise correctly. 9Round offers a perfect mix of personal training and individual workouts. I was never a gym guy until I found this place. The trainers helped me learn and feel confident about my abilities and what I could achieve. They will work with you and also give you the independence to become better on your own. Ive recommended 9Round to countless friends and will continue to do so.

I had my first Official workout as a member about a week ago. I admit, I was hesitant as I wasnt sure how the trainer would respond to me and my uncoordination, lol. Luckily, she was very understanding and professional. Also, very engaging and patient but at same time, doesnt let you quit. After all, this is what I signed up for, to improve my over all well-being. I look forward to my next workouts and getting to know the staff and other members better. Thank you all for being there for us and believing in us.

Great total body workout in 30 minutes with trainers who are there with you every step of the way!

Highly recommend 9 Rounds in the Highlands! Great workout, and the Trainers are great!

I’ve been a member since the end of March and 9Round is the first workout place where I actually look forward to coming to class. What I enjoy the most is the flexibility of class times and diversity of workouts. Having the trainers there to consistently keep me on my feet is also a major benefit. I also appreciate how welcoming the staff is. Every time I step into the room, I am greeted by name which makes me feel appreciated as a member. While I am no where near close to the next Muhammad Ali, thanks to 9Round, I have become stronger, more confident, and gained an appreciation of the sport of kickboxing. I highly recommend giving it a chance.

Quality people and Great trainers!

Love the community, small tight knit family, challenging daily-changing workouts and the open time slots without set class times! Easy location, but could use some more parking. Trainers are always involved, supportive and participating. The member fees arent too expensive and allow you full access everyday theyre open.

Seems as my review got deleted. But I’m not really happy with this location. I love the middle town and the st. Matthews, but the workers at this one aren’t very nice. Besides the owner and the blonde girl. I’ve had a hard time adjusting to this one when I moved out here around two months ago. I feel like this one isn’t as welcoming as the others. I would just suggest working on the staff at this one. I always feel so welcomed at the other ones. I’ve been charged a water on my account with out communication when I had a dollar to pay for it. I just found that rude when you could of simple asked if I was paying it or wanted it on my account.. I’m just blown away with the workers at this one.

Such a fun, intense, full-body workout. Trainers are fantastic and help and motivate you at every station. Love that there are no class times - just come when you want and get right in.

Trainers are really patient and work with you. It was worth it!

I love the positive energy. The trainers always greet me by name and are very supportive and encouraging. They help create an awesome workout environment!

The trainers are so incredibly friendly. They help modify any workout to best fit your level and what you want to work on. The fact that there are no class times really helps with fitting into any busy schedule. Highly recommend!

The BEST workout with the best trainers! The routine is never the same and I feel the results in muscles I didn’t know I have. I am stronger than I’ve been in years. The gym is clean, the vibe is fun but I’ve never left without feeling like I truly got a great workout!

Great workout! Flexible full body workout in 27 minutes. The Owner/Operator is on site to guide and train you throughout your workout. Location is great and parking is easy along the back, side and front of building even though located in a busy Highland area. I bought a package deal which included everything I need to use all the kickboxing equipment. As a personal trainer, I find it is the most convenient way to work in a complete workout for myself between all my clients.

Get ready to sweat and smile because you will love the workout at 9rounds. Echoing the the other five star reviews, I simply, look forward to going. Maybe its because the coaching is phenomenal and the three minute exercises are challenging yet doable, or simply putting on boxing gloves gets you fired up, either way, your time spent at the studio is both enjoyable and grueling. Give it a try, the first class is free.

Its so easy to drop in and 30 minutes is a short amount of time to be able to get in a good workout. Im really busy and have an unpredictable schedule so its perfect. Its also very affordable for students, and being able to punch out my stress is so beneficial.

I absolutely love to work out here. Because its only thirty minutes and is always different, its new and fun instead of the same thing over and over like other gyms. The owner is great and is very active in the workout.

The trainers really work with you. Because I am older and have a few ailments the trainers let me work at my best pace. I may not be able to move as fast as some of the other members, the trainers still encourage me to never give up. I appreciate the support both physically and mentally. I love 9 rounds.

The staff here is beyond rude. They only let the ones that have been coming here feel welcomed. But new ones I can tell they don’t care. I’ve Been to both st.mattews and this one and the staff at this one is the worst. I’ll be spending my money at another kickboxing place 👋🏼✌🏼

My boyfriend and I love 9Round! Such an awesome and challenging workout. The staff is super helpful!

I’ve never liked working out so much until I started 9round. I used to go to the gym irregularly, but I don’t skip a day now except for when they’re closed. It’s only 30 minutes and you’re doing something different everyday so you’re never getting bored. DeDe (the owner) is fabulous and so is her staff. I highly recommend 9round highlands!

9Round provides an excellent workout and friendly enviroment without the intimidation or even cult-like vibe of other organizations. The staff at my location are incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Kickboxing helps take the days stress away, keeps me fit, and best of all doesnt feel like a chore!

Im a member so I can give insider knowledge. I worried I would feel exposed with the glass windows facing busy Bardstown road...Im always so fired up or wore out I dont even notice the windows exist. The trainers are nice and genuinely care about your workout and health and help you modify if a workout is beyond your current level or you have an injury youre recovering from. There are people from all levels of fitness but theres zero intimidation. Its like a workout family.

Amazing! Its perfect for someone [me], who generally dislikes exercising and needs a quick, intense workout on a flexible schedule. The variation in routines and the encouragement of the trainers make it easy to keep coming back.

My daughters and I look forward to every one of our 9 Rounds workouts. We most enjoy the friendly staff, challenging yet fun workouts, great location, and inviting space.

9Round Highlands is an amazing gym at an incredible value! I have seen a drastic change in my body composition since I started working out here. The workout is different every day, takes only 30 minutes and works your whole body. There are no class times so you can workout any time the gym is open. Plus, theres always a trainer on the floor showing you what to do and making sure you get the most out of your workout. DeDe (the owner) and her staff are super friendly and are great at challenging and supporting their clients. Its a fun atmosphere that really makes you want to go workout. I would highly recommend 9Round Highlands to any and everyone. The first workout is free so you should definitely give it a try!

Friendly coaches who are always willing to offer suggestions and encouragement.

My brother was visiting from out of town, but he knew I loved and missed kickboxing, so he tried the place out and took me next time. DeDe not only hooked him up with a free trial, but I was crazy about 9R Highlands instantly! I cannot say enough how much positivity this place brought to my life in just one year. I now live in another state far, far away, that is 9R-less :( No gym can compare to the genuine friendliness, warmth, sass, and motivation that DeDe and her incredible team provide day after day. They care about their members as people, and greet you by name when you walk in the door.As for the gym itself, having no class times is a major plus for all of us whose lives are too scheduled as is. The workouts are always different and can be adapted to individual needs. I dont like to think when I work out, but I like to be challenged. There is nonstop awesome energy there that always whipped my buns into gear! PLEASE join this gym! Itll be one of the best things you ever do for yourself, I promise.

Talk about a GREAT space (larger than the other 9 Rounds Ive visited) and an even better work out. I didnt know I could push myself so hard. The trainers are full of energy and will help you get the work out that works for you! Best part for me...a gal whos always running late....Im ALWAYS on time, because my work out starts, when I get there.I also love the circuit concept, I never get bored because it changes daily and the weekly challenge is super cool to see the members names each week and how I stack up against them. Try it - you will be glad you did.

Guided workouts that are always changing. The trainers are always attentive and helpful! Also, they know everybodys name which is amazing & shows howe much they care about the participants!

Every time I go it is a different workout that makes me sweat every time. DeDe motivates you to work harder and do better dont except less, sweat more!!!

Its always a different exercise anytime you go for a workout. And its just that, a workout. In 35 minutes youll be ready to pack it up if you can get off the floor.

The Staff are all friendly but motivate you. Love this place!

The best thing about 9Round - Highland s is the class times, you can jump in for 30 minutes at any time of day except from 1:30 - 3:30 pm

Theres a new challenging workout everyday with an awesome staff and awesome members :)

Rude staff that are teaching people wrong techniques that will injure them. Go to a gym that actually knows what theyre doing

Rude staff. Slim hours. Unable to provide alternate workouts. Will scam you into a membership. Unprofessional.Avoid this “gym”.

100 dollars a month for a gym with basic techniques and equipment, I went for 1 month and ended up having to pay for 3 due to their membership scam, not an honorable way to run a business

Staff and new management are completely lost, rude and unprofessional! What a waste for our Highland community...

Wonderful

Very good love 9 round best in business.
