CKO Kickboxing Cedar Grove — Attraction in Cedar Grove

Came across this place on google. Was interested in a gym with classes and an intense workout. I saw they had a groupon which was a good deal. I didn't purchase it because I was very interested in joining and rather spend on the membership instead. I did take advantage of the free trial class and it was great. The instructors name was Candace and she took me aside and showed me a few of the moves and assured me that as a first timer I would be fine. The class was one hour and was one of the best workouts ever. I knew at the end of class I was going to join so i went and asked about prices, and schedules. They gave me a pamphlet and sent me on my way. I understand no pressure but they didn't even ask. From a business perspective it was a loss cause I was ready to join on the spot but since they didn't ask i took the time to "think about it". In short after one class, I cancelled my gym membership and immediately joined CKO. ( I chose the one year lump pymnt as I felt it was the best deal) I wish there were more incentives to join, like a free shirt or something ! I also wish there was an orientation of some sort like, thanks for joining, heres the website where you can see the up to date class schedule, the teacher, and to let me know about the gyms emails that keep you posted on any changes that are happening or may happen. Its been about two months and I love the structure the classes provide, I have martial arts background and feel this place is credible based on my past. Very easy to get to from my house, and a much better workout then just walking around the...

I have been a member of CKO for the past ten years, and from the moment I joined, I found myself deeply engrossed in the experience. The exceptional quality of the coaches, coupled with the welcoming and amicable nature of the members, has made my visits to CKO a consistently enjoyable part of my routine.

The coaches at CKO have consistently displayed a high level of expertise and professionalism, ensuring that members receive top-notch training and guidance.

I firmly believe that integrating CKO into one's routine can yield significant benefits and contribute to a well-rounded approach to...

New management has created a hostile environment for both trainers and members as evident by the outpour of negative feedback and trainers leaving the gym. It is clear management has no respect for trainers based on how they are treated IN FRONT of the members. At a trainers last class, they should be allowed to say goodbye to the members after finished, and I just witnessed as a trainer was met with an act of intimidation as the manager called in five people to meet the trainer at the end of their class, and then proceeded to kick them off the premises. Class act guys. This was disgusting, and I sincerely hope that for the sake of the CKO brand, someone that actually knows how to manage a business takes over. Step 1: Communicate with your members. How about you address the situation that you created instead of sweeping it under the rug and trying to ignore it? Although I still have a couple weeks before my membership of three years is terminated (OF MY OWN CHOICE), I am too disgusted to even walk back into the building. Good luck to the trainers that were forced out of the gym, no matter where you land you will do great. I am sorry to the members stuck in a contract that is arguably...
