This place is utterly fantastic if you are looking to get in a great workout, meet some really amazing people, and achieve any fitness goals you set for yourself. I just finished their 6week kickboxing challenge and I lost 18lbs along with 6% body fat! Even though it was an extra challenge doing this during quarantine, the coaches and other members are so supportive and encouraging with their great energy and positive outlooks, which gave me the strength to keep pushing all the way. You can really tell that they love what they do and they do it all for their fitfam which I admire so much. Again, highly recommended no matter where you are in your fitness level or goals, they make it fun and you’ll be looking forward to the next class you go to with them to get in a great workout. ️

I cannot express how grateful I am for iLoveKickboxing at Los Alamitos! They gave me the push I needed to lose the weight and gave me the nutritional information to keep it off! I was able to lose 7% total over the 6 weeks and I'm definitely able to tell the difference! My clothes fit better (clothes I avoided wearing because it was too tight and uncomfortable), I even went down a pants size! It is definitely a challenge, but it's doable and you can definitely achieve the goals as long as you follow the nutrition plan and workouts! Even during the COVID-19 pandemic, they haven't failed to reach out to their challengers and members and stayed in contact the entire time, providing so much encouragement throughout the entire process! I would 10/10 recommend for anyone who wants to learn kickboxing and lose weight in the process!

I started gaining weight when I got my Nexplanon implant. Then I gained even more when my parents visited and stayed with me for three weeks (obviously I love my mom and dad’s cooking). I had to put away all of my old clothes and bought a whole lot of new ones for my new size. Then my new set of clothes started to be too small for me again. I told myself there’s no way I’m getting another set of clothes to accommodate this developing body of mine. I decided to do something about it and went back to running as I used to run 2 miles everyday with my husband when he was still in the Army. I was hopeful that going back to running would help me lose weight and get back to shape. It was already past 6 months since I’ve been trying to lose weight and I only lost 5 pounds. My self-esteem is getting lower every passing day and I hate how it’s uncomfortable for me to wear my wedding ring since its already constricting my finger. My breaking point was this March 7,2020 when my husband and I had brunch with his parents and as I was getting ready I couldn’t fit my tall boots. It is one thing for your clothes to not fit you but having your tall boots not fit you is another story-and they were my favorite boots! That day I was so disturbed about my weight issue, then like an answered prayer I saw an ad about Los Alamitos ILKB. I immediately booked for a consultation early morning the next day and after my consultation I signed up for the 6 week Transformation Challenge.

I was very anxious on my way to my first work out session but it all disappeared as soon as I entered the gym. The energy and the vibe of every one from coaches to the participating kick boxers were just amazing! Since my first session I have been looking forward then to attending the classes. I always fall behind but coaches and even fellow kick boxers would help me out and cheer me on. My coach was constantly checking on me and provided me with every support and motivation I needed. This culture did not stop even with the pandemic that we are facing right now. Los Alamitos ILKB continued to serve its members and challengers with outmost attention and dedication.

April 17,2020 I had my last weigh in after 6 weeks and already I have lost 16lbs and 6% body fat! I couldn’t believe it! I tried so hard for over 6 months and lost only 5 lbs.and now with Los Alamitos ILKB in 6 weeks I lost more than triple of what I lost in over 6 months. My wedding ring now fits me again and my tall boots as well! Bonus points, I feel more energized and healthier!

Los Alamitos ILKB is a place where I feel safe and comfortable to show myself no matter how weak and struggling I may appear. The positive culture in Los Alamitos ILKB is truly praise worthy. If you are trying to lose weight or just want to be healthier and is looking for a place to help you with that goal, I highly recommend Los Alamitos ILKB. I’m so glad to have found them!

THIS PLACE SAVED MY LIFE. It has kept me accountable to maintaining my health goals and everyone is SUPERIOR in what they do! I love ILKBLosAl! Let me start off by saying this was TOTALLY OUT OF MY COMFORT ZONE. I was more of a yoga gal but found an ad on FB about this place back in November and i was feeling pretty low about my bodyweight at the time and had started working 3 jobs which didn't allow me as much time to go to the gym so i kinda let my fitness goals go. I decided to make a change and sign up for the 6 week challenge here at ILKB. I figured it would hold me accountable and i had a goal! I was 3 weeks into the challenge (5 pounds and 3% body fat down), was eating healthy and coming to class 3/4 times a week. My energy levels were up and i felt great again! I decided to become a full time member after 3 weeks and i don't regret it one bit! This place pretty much changed my life and it's worth the investment! EVERYONE here is amazing, supportive, friendly, and all have goals. We motivate eachother and make sure we support everyone! All the coaches know you by name (at least mostof them lol) and they are willing to give you tips, help you with whatever you need, and are always friendly. Everytime i leave this place (even on days when i don't want to work out) i always feel better than when i came in! It feels like a giant fit family and i love it!

Thanks guys for creating a place where we can feel comfortable letting out some stress and getting a good workout in! Y'all are awesome!

Update: : : ILKB Los Al has been soooo amazing during this crazy quarantine time. I honestly would GO INSANE without these amazing online workouts for the members! It keeps me healthy, moving, and accountable!

It was a great experience and I had lots of great teachers. They always kept the atmosphere fun with music. Would definitely recommend.

I can’t say enough about this place! It’s GREAT and I LOVE IT! I actually had been missing out this whole time (it’s really close to my work) and I had not seen it, up until 2 weeks ago. Coincidentally, I had been wanting to find my happy work out spot. I saw iLoveKickboxing as I drove by and that same night I looked into stopping by later that week. I had done kickboxing many years ago and I loved it, but when I moved to OC, I had yet to find the “right” place for me. This time, I even brought my boyfriend with me. After one class, we were both hooked. We became members and now I look forward to working out. The instructors are kind people, who push you to do your best. Plus, their jams keep you motivated to keep going (and dance if yiu want haha). I highly recommend this place. You will be hooked!

They advertise a "free" 6 week challenge. Be prepared to leave a $500 deposit and if you don't loose 6% body fat they keep it.not a real kick boxing gym in my opinion. Nice people though. I get it they want people to compete the course since its free.but c'mon $500?

I had an idea to get a head start on my #weddingbod and to really join a place that had kickboxing as part of their routine (and a WELL TAKEN CARE OF facility!) I saw the 6 week challenge for ILKB on an ad. I thought, oh that’s a cool way to try a new place out! I felt some good vibes from my trainer, Shea, and the people that I’ve met along the way, so it made it easier and easier to show up 3 times a week or more. I enjoyed sharing my journey on the FB group because it kept me honest, I thought to myself, “Ok, Mare.it’s official now! ” It helped me track my progression and I really started to feel it in my clothes. So here we are, finally buying myself a pair of new work out pants because I dropped the weight too fast too furious and I’m ok with that

I was in search to find a place that had a 6 week challenge and I came to the right place. Since being overweight in 2018, I wanted to start my journey where I can feel like I'm 21 again. I was 190 pounds in 2018 and almost diabetic, so I decided to get a gym membership at 24 hour fitness. I lost about 10 pounds from October to the End of December of 2018, but I needed more motivation so I joined 9 Round as my new year's resolution for 2019. I started at 180 pounds when I started and stayed with them for a few months and lost almost 10 more pounds. The only reason why I did not stay with them was because they kept changing coaches, did not include stretching, and did not really incorporate nutritional recommendations so I was constantly injuring myself. I continued with 24 hour for the rest of the year, but felt no motivation so I decided to do some research and found the right place at iLoveKickboxing.

If you are serious about getting fit, this is the place for you. All of the coaches are there to make sure you reach your fitness goals. This place feels like a family environment where everyone is very supportive of one another. The one hour workout goes by very fast. What I like about this place are the warmups, stretches, bag workout, stretching again after workout, and lastly Pow Pow Go Los Al. You sweat from the 15 minute warmup and you sweat even more from the bag workouts. My goal here was to lose 6 percent of body fat in 6 weeks and I lost 12.6 by the end of my 6 weeks. Being accountable with my meal plan really helped a lot because 80 percent of your success will come from the food that you eat and 20 percent are from working out. During the 6 weeks, I came here about 3 to 4 times a week and watched what I was eating. If I can do it, you can do it. Thank you iLoveKickboxing for helping me feel like I'm 21 again!

Don't be fooled by the reviews, this business bribes people with membership perks and other compensation tools to leave good reviews. Their six week challenge is organized robbery, and they will keep your $500 "deposit" if you don't lose the preordained generalized amount of body fat that is somehow determined without knowing a thing about you or your body. As a former gym manager and personal trainer, to say I'm disappointed is an understatement. I will acknowledge that one of the owners is a talented coach, but the business practices here are so far below par it hardly matters.

I needed a jump start to my workout routine and ILKB was just what I needed! I achieved all my goals I set out with their 6 week challenge. So worth it! To top it off the community there was so much fun! They gave me strength and made me feel comfortable. Thanks to all my new friends for helping me along my way!

My fiancé and I started taking classes at iLoveKickBoxing – Los Alamitos, CA a couple weeks ago. So far, my experience at the gym has been fantastic.
Management: The first person I spoke to at iLKB was the manager Marie, she was very helpful and inviting. She worked with my fiancé and I to make sure that we had the best experience for both of us and took the time needed to get to know us and our fitness goals. You can tell that she is the head of the outfit because all her employees show the same level of respect and care for each “fighter” and that type of mentality always comes from management.
Trainers: I can’t speak to my experience with all of the trainers because I haven’t worked with all of them yet but the ones that I have spent an hour with in a group session pushing me harder than I would ever push myself have been exactly what I need. My classes with Avril an accomplished kickboxer, and tested jujitsu competitor has been my most memorable. She is full of encouragement and always pushes me to go harder all while stressing the importance of listening you your body and prioritizing form.
Class Hours: The gym is open seven days a week with the primary density of classes being on weekdays am and after normal work hours (9am to 5pm). They also have classes in the weekends during the am. So, whatever your schedule is you can find time to make it to the gym.
Cleanliness of Gym: After every class all the “fighters” participate in cleaning up after their own spaces/bags with disinfectant wipes. Also in between classes I’ve always seen trainers doing more to make sure the work out area is well kept by mopping and disinfecting the floor.
Vibe: I know its cliché but there really is a since of community and a drive to encourage your peers. Everyone leaves the gym exhausted no matter your level of fitness and that is a great equalizer. People who were complete strangers only minutes ago are tapping gloves after rounds encouraging each other to stay positive. All together it’s a great place with great staff and clients that make this out of shape man encourage to keep coming back and keep hitting my fitness goals.

This place was a game changer for me! I've been struggling with my weight and overall confidence since I had my son. I saw the ad for the 6 week challenge and decided to check it out. So happy I did! I have never seen results like this from working out and it's all because of ILKB Los Al! This place is full of positive energy from the coaches, members, and fellow challengers. The workouts are challenging and fun. I can't say enough good things. If you are looking for a place to help you kickstart your fitness journey or to reach your fitness goals, I can not recommend this place enough! Thanks so much, Jake, Jess, Imani, Bri and all my fellow kickboxers!

We did the 6 week challenge, and it was great! Jake, Eric, and Bri are amazing instructors, and it’s such a supportive environment. It was the best way to change our diets and get in shape for our wedding!

The 6 week challenge at ILKB was the push I needed to reach my fitness goals. I’ve been doing yoga and going to the gym for a couple years but started to plateau. This challenge was definitely difficult but once I saw results, I knew it was worth it. My arms are toner and my abs lines are coming in! My jeans are also looser so I know I lost some pudge around my waistline! The challenge kept me accountable and helped me build a habit to eat healthier (which meats are leaner, which carbs are better, what fats to eat or not eat, etc). The classes are really fun and the community at ILKB are very welcoming. I’m glad I was able to challenge myself and push myself to the next level!

I had an amazing time working out at the this gym! With 4 workouts/week and a steady diet, I lost 26 lbs in 6 weeks! The environment is incredibly positive - both the staff and all the members made workouts challenging and enjoyable. The coaches will keep you accountable to the goals you put in place. If you have big goals, they will guide you along the way to help make it happen.
Great experience and amazing people!

I’m so glad that I decided to join ILKB Los Alamitos! Thanks to the motivating coaches, a healthier diet and a positive environment here. I was able to lose 30 lbs during my 6 week challenge! I encourage anyone to join ILKB Los Alamitos that needs that extra push to reach their fitness goal.

Have yet to try a class since they can never pick up the phones for some reason. I am just trying to set a reservation for my groupon. Thanks would very much appreciate it if you guys could pick up the phone.

I heard about ILKB Los Alamitos through a facebook ad and will admit I was super skeptical at first…I am not a gym person but from the time I walked in the coaches were so friendly and the environment was encouraging and fun! Don’t get it twisted though, as fun and nice as everyone is the workouts are HARD- but way fun. The hour literally flys by and you leave feeling great. Not only have I lost weight and fat percentage I have gained motivation and confidence! I am so excited to continue my fitness journey and would recommend ILKB Los Al to everyone!

From someone who is brand new to fitness I would never have thought I would crave the gym, but joining the ILKB 6 week challenge was the perfect push I needed! They gave me a meal plan to follow and workouts that actually changed my body! At the end of 6 weeks I lost 7% body fat and my stomach looks toned for the first time in my adult life. Hallelujah! What a great gym all around in every aspect!
