Fantastic classes!! Amazing instructors!! This was my first time trying kickboxing. I am a shy person but at the studio I feel transformed. I feel I can express myself without judgement and let go of daily life stressors by hitting the bags. The staff is always welcoming and super fun to get to know. The coaches are very involved in making sure the members attain success. It is quite a tough workout I must say but the fun manner in which the classes are taugh make each round worth the pain and sweat. The classes combined with the disciplined eating will yield results within a few weeks. I can say I am in the best shape I have been since my teen years. I feel great and have a lot of energy. I sleep better, eat better, and am making better lifestyle choices stemming from the connection to the studio. From the 1st person who greeted me the very first time I walked in Amanda to the ones who stick around even after the last class of the night is done make this experience that much more special and worth it. I know when I step on the mat though I better be ready to work. They have fun themed nights and we get to dress up which is always fun. I have been working out at this studio for two months now and for me this studio will become a favorite place to incorporate into my life because it provides me an escape from daily life and I'm getting healthy in the proccess. What else can one ask for? I highly recommend the classes. I love my I LOVE KICKBOXING family!!
I started my journey of kickboxing 6 weeks ago, and today I did my final weigh in and I’m so proud and happy I did. ILKB FAMILY is the best, with dedicated, pushing you staying informed and involved. I started at 242 and down 14lbs I’m 226. I’m excited to continue my journey I love kickboxing heights y’all became my second home. I love you guys
I signed up for the six week challenge as I was lacking motivation to lose some weight - I started at 162lbs and although I still have a few days to go, I'm now 148lbs! There are numerous different coaches at this location, each with a different teaching style, and each workout is what you make of it. Each day focuses on a different part of your body and every class, without a doubt, works your cardio! The meal plan is effective and although the first week is tough whilst adjusting, it becomes easier to follow as the challenge progresses. I would say that although the challenge is advertised as being free, it's not - it costs $499 to sign up, and you only get a refund if you meet the fat loss/weight loss requirements of the challenge. Due to this, I do feel that some of the coaches need some guidance/training on the nutritional advice that they give out and need to check in with you more, perhaps on a weekly basis to ensure you are following the plan and requirements. Poor advice hindered my progress during the first half of the challenge, leading me to play catch up later on to try and succeed! Overall, I have enjoyed my experience at I Love Kickboxing Houston Heights and if you are looking for something to kick-start your weight loss journey, it is a great motivator!
I completed the 6 week challenge. I really enjoyed the gym and the atmosphere! Everyone was so nice, responsive and helpful. My questions were answered and someone was always willing to help me out with my technique and my stance during the workout. I liked the set up of class and all the class options. I would definitely recommend if you are interested in doing a different kind of workout.
WOW! I wish I would've came here and read the bad review comments. I would have saved myself a lot of trouble. I want to say that I came to this establishment with the idea of getting a least 1 free workout. When I arrived at the establishment, I was greeted and shown around. They do not give a free training session. They want you there to sign up for the 6 week challenge! I was handed a piece of paper and asked be come back 11/19/2022 to get measurements. When I arrived that day around 10am, I was asked to wait and told that measurements are not done until 12pm. I was disappointed because I had already took a trip to the establishment with a false expectation to have free workout... then I arrive on a Saturday and I am asked to come back at 12pm. I said no. So she gave me the option to arrive 1 hour prior to initial workout session which was supposed to be on Monday 11/21/2022. I decided to send an email and asked to cancel everything. Not one single session, no kickboxing gloves and not one single measurement and they are not wanting to return my money. I completely agree with the negative comment reviews. This establishment does not care about their clients and all they care about is keeping clients money at whatever cost. Stephanie, has been having conversations with me via email mentioned that she can't return my money because meal prep plan was provided! Really? I could have easily printed this information off of google. It does not cost $200+ dollars or $500 for a piece of paper. Furthermore, she mentioned on 12/06/2022 that her manager would call me and until this day I have not received a call back. Our emails have been going on since 11/21/2022 and no resolution. I have disputed this with my bank and have provided all the information to them. Not sure why they have all these positive reviews as the times I went to the establishment only 2 or 3 persons where working out. Strange! Do not come to this establishment!
Love love love going to ILKB. The staff is so welcoming and attentive and keep the studio in top notch shape! Definitely recommend taking a class if you haven’t tried it! I promise you will sign up! Their fun, challenging classes are so addicting and make you want to come to class everyday! Do yourself a favor! GO TAKE A CLASS!
I started the 6 week challenge here at ILK and it was the best and challenging thing to do! The instructors are amazing and are will to work with you through everything. I highly recommend coming to this location you’ll have so much fun and you’ll see a difference within a few days!
This place was great. I lost 29 pounds on the 6 weeks challenge. Coach Faith and Kris were the best. I would've never met my goals without them. I also liked the groups in my classes. Fun classes very motivating.
Shall I begin? I want to start off by saying: DO NOT BELIEVE THESE OTHER COMMENTS… they are in-house staff leaving them! So I joined a 6-weeks challenge class at ILKB. My initial visit to that location —with Marcia was mediocre at best. It gave very unorganized ,unaware and unsure with the information she was providing me. When I met with her I don’t know if I was having a consultation or just a tour because again she was all over the place.,, knowing this —I is still decided to join the 6-weeks class; just because I wanted to up my workouts. Fast forward a couple of days of joining the class. Marcia never suggested to WAIT to begin class to avoid paying a 15/daily fee to use their gloves. I had to week an entire week for my gloves to come in purchased through a 3rd party. Another thing: Didn’t love the idea I had to sign-in to 3 different places to ensure I was going to class and in the event I do not lose the weight I would get my money back. Well guess what I didn’t lose the weight. I stop going after the 5th week. And this is why. when I have expressed how I wasn’t happy with the i first visit amongst other things -after that I felt the staff had it out for me. They were extremely RUDE and unprofessional. Marcia even had the nerve to confront me about me being upset! Again very unprofessional.., because I severely low iron , I stopped going. Do you think the staff ever called or email to see where I’ve been. I’ve emailed Kris and explained my reasons of not attending any further classes … with no respond. DO NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY HERE … it isn’t worth it!!!! Location is horrible as well. You’re bound to be asked for loose change if you’re lucky! I HATE I picked this place … worst experience ever!
I just left there and had the worst experience no one was professional at all. Faith ignored me the entire time I was waiting after I filled out the form didn't even greet or say hello just looked at me and kept doing what she was doing. The guy that came in to speak with me didn't really seem knowledgeable and asked silly questions he also didn't introduce himself he just asked me to follow him to the break room…so the customer service from jump was poor then when I spoke with him I realized after all of that this may not be the place for me I already have trainer that I pay so this was an additional activity that I would have loved to do in the evening for another workout. However the environment and the customer service killed it for me. When I left and sat in my car for a few minutes the guy then came out and asked me to move because its reserved for the gym... reserved for the gym I literally just exited! But I I said okay I will leave when I have my gps together he then said can you move your car right now because another class will be coming, I ignored him at that point because I was trying to figure out my way as I just moved to Houston… he then said that’s okay I’ll have someone come and talk to you then.. so it was kinda a threatening, when I told him I’m getting my gps together. This was at 6:30pm next class is 7:30 and the 6pm class was barely on time because I got there at 5:48pm wasn’t seen until 6:18pm, when the consultation was scheduled for 6pmso overall worst experience would not recommend this location. Also Faith came to the break room bc consultations are done in the kitchen while we were having a consultation and was going in and out the fridge in the middle of us chatting in the super small space.. so it was completely unprofessional all across the board.
