I bought an intro package for both my boyfriend and I so we could see if we liked this location. The intro package says it comes with a free pair of gloves, but we were told when we showed up for our first intro class that the gloves only came with signing up for a membership.
It's incredibly pricey! I don't mind paying a premium for a membership that I will get a lot of use out of as I love kickboxing classes, but they have such a limited class schedule that it wouldn't be worth it. The class times alternate through the week, so if I can only attend one particular class time it means I can only come 2-3 times a week when I would typically like to go 5-6 times a week. And there are hardly any classes during the weekend! It makes the cost per class way too pricey.
I was also peeved that they don't have a water fountain but offer water for sale instead.
I have no complaints about the class itself or the instructors and staff, but the bait and switch with the free gloves, the price, and limited class schedule has me searching elsewhere.
Love, love, love this place!! The warmup is intense and the bag rounds are always fun and makes you work hard. The instructors are always pushing for more and the other members are always uplifting and positive.
Horrible service. Cancelation process and the harassment isn't part of a good gym. Pass....
ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE BUSINESS PRACTICES! I was pressured & tricked into signing a contract on the day of my first trial.
Promised that there would be classes all day long. NOPE!! Times are To early for people with kids leaving for school. Then times to late in morning for people who actually work.
Large gap in the afternoon where there are NO classes at all. Then evening but that does not work for me either. Paying $125/month to not go at all. Trying to get out of contract.
They say the do not terminate contracts. Had to go to my bank & cancel my debit card used for monthly bill. Just let them send me to a collection agency. They will never see another dime.
DO NOT JOIN THIS GYM!
Many other lies told as well. BEWARE!
Well, let's start with the good. The actual class was fine and I'd probably rate 4 or 5 if it were based on that alone. Good energy and the instructors go around to check on form and such as you're going. I do think things could probably be coordinated to the music better and maybe more explanation of terms for new people (like someone brand new to kick boxing/fighting may not know the difference between a jab, cross, and uppercut, so simply shouting "Jab, jab, cross!" isn't going to help them much).
The bad: It's really pricey, and very no-frills for what you pay. There is a male and female bathroom and locker room, and then the mat with the bags. That's basically it. No showers. No locks on the lockers. Not even a drinking fountain. Oh, you can buy merchandise, though! Honestly, I would expect a lot more for what it costs.
The worst: The customer service. I showed up about 6 minutes late today because I live 20 minutes away and the traffic on the freeway was atrocious. The instructor told me I couldn't join the class. Ok...why, exactly? I see no reason why I couldn't have just done some quick warm ups off to the side and then jumped in with everyone else. Fortunately for me, I was on a cheap trial period, but for as much as it would cost normally, you better let me into the class no matter what time I show up! This was hugely upsetting to me because I have kids, one being a new infant, and I basically have to plan my whole morning around it if I want to go out to make sure I have child care and that the kids are happy and fed before I'm out the door and such. So to get a babysitter and go through all that just to be told I can't join the class for being 6 minutes late was really unacceptable. This alone is enough to convince me never to join.
One more note-- they do provide an incentive for reviews, so I'd advise you to keep that in mind as well as you read all the glowing praise... As for me, I'll be looking elsewhere.

I'm Lauren and I love Kickboxing so much for how its shaping my body.I feel very energized now and don't always feel tired the way i did before starting.I also don't have as many junk food cravings, which makes it easier for me to stick to my diet and eat healthy.I love kickboxing and cant wait to see the difference it does to my body in time.
I'm very happy to be apart of the ILKB-Gilbert family. The classes challenge and push me to do better. Everyone is very supportive. If you want to reach your goals, try ILKB-Gilbert out. You won't be sorry
I never thought they working out could be so much fun. I've always been really self-conscious about working out but they really make you feel like you're part of the team and like a big family here starting with day 1. May was my one-on-one personal instructor for my first day and she just made me feel so good about starting on this journey and really making me feel like I was supported. Everyone here no matter what class that I've gone to really just support each other and motivate each other to reach our goals and I really recommend trying a class I got hooked from trial offer and I signed up for membership immediately because I knew this was different and I knew that I was going to actually be motivated to go to the gym and have positive people around me that help me so I am really grateful for them.

I never thought I could enjoy working out but this place is fabulous! The workouts are tough but so much fun. The coaches here are the best in providing motivation and support. It is one of the best decisions I have ever made.

ILoveKickboxing has changed the way I feel about working out at a gym. The staff is friendly and motivating. The classes are challenging while not being intimidating. It's a fun, exciting way to work out. I've not only lost weight I feel stronger and more confident. I highly recommend going in and trying it out!

I did it and I'm so happy I did!! It all started when I saw a promo - figured, eh, it's close and looks fun. One class was all it took, I signed up after that first one and haven't looked back ! Now, here I am, 3 weeks in, hitting 3+ classes a week- having fun, getting a killer work out and meeting so many awesome people! Everyone from coaches and the people on the floor-pushing each other to do their best and not give up!
This is the best workout including cardio, strength training, and fun all in 1 hour! The instructors are amazing and encourage you to keep going and give it your all. I have never been able to push myself this hard in the gym! The studio is always doing fun activities or special theme days that make it that much more fun! I am so happy that I became a member of this kickboxing studio! -Sheena Dougherty
ILKB-Gilbert, is an amazing place if you are looking for a great work-out. I have been doing it for 2 weeks now and I have already reduced my BMI by 5 points. You do want to do this consistently in order to get the moves down and get your body used to the workout. However, I have tried many other work outs and this is definitely one I will be sticking to -- and one that works great!!!
Not to mention all of the class instructors are incredibly encouraging and helpful throughout the entire experience.
Fantastic Workout!!!
Full body workout at its best. The high energy staff and banging atmosphere of the studio engage and motivate you from the beginning of your workout to the end. The staff are motivating and encourage you to strive towards your personal goals! I love it!!!
ILKBGilbert has been one of the smartest things I have done to get in shape. This place is clean. The staff is so welcoming and friendly they turn to family. There is a never a dull moment. Each day has a new line up I never get board. The other members that take the class all end up working together motivating and pushing each other to work harder and be better. If you had a hard time making friends before you won't have a choice in this place. It is addicting and I love it!
I finally found something I enjoy, which means I stick to it! I have never been one to workout for an hour or several times a week, but I find myself loving the workouts and trying to go as often as I can! The instructors are super friendly and helpful! In two weeks I lost 12 inches (1-2" from each spot measured) and 10 lbs! Seriously from kickboxing alone. I am so excited to see the transformation I can make of ME
I cannot recommend iLoveKickboxing-Gilbert enough! I love to workout, but as I've gotten older, it's been harder to commit and notice results. I purchased a web special and signed up after my first class. The workout is phenomenal. The coaches are amazingly encouraging and friendly. When you miss class for a while, they notice and check on you. Everyone is like a family here and the workouts are all the more fun because of it. It is hard, but it is fun. You will be sore, but you will see results. I absolutely LOVE this place, these people, and the workout! You MUST try it!
I love Kickboxing
I have only been going for a few weeks but I can already feel how much my energy has increased, and I can already see how much my I have grown physically. I have never been able to do a real push but now I can. I love the staff they really care about you and helping you feel and look better. After the first class I am hooked, excited to reach my goals look and feel so much better.

I joined I LOVE KICKBOXING in July and never looked back. The staff is so friendly and they make you feel like your part of a family. The workouts are intense and since I started my clothes fit better and I feel great!
