Wow! I am so glad a girlfriend recommended ILoveKickboxing! Rissa greeted me with a smile and positive vibe. She was super helpful and answered all my questions. Because it was my first time with ILKB she sat me down and she got to know a little about me and my goals. I got a pair of boxing gloves, a bottle of water and a towel. There were some other first timers there as well so she put me close to them :) She went over the diff kinds of punches, kicks, and correct movements as well....then class began!! Holy Hell!!!!! The warm up kicked my butt! LOL running, burpees, sit ups, push ups, planks, mountain climbers then we went into the kickboxing portion and that kicked my butt too!! Yesssss! The whole time Rissa was encouraging, and up beat and the music was great too. At the end of class I ended up signing up for the Punch Card option...it was the best for my situation. There was no pressure to sign up so I liked that. I cannot wait to go back!
