CKO BAYONNE is an amazing gym for ALL fitness levels. 1) Trainers give detailed instructions. Beginners workout at their own pace while more advanced levels can get a full body workout. 2) Not only does CKO help me relieve stress, it also helps me achieve my fitness goals. 3) Each trainer has their own style which makes every class fun. 4) CKO trainers are knowledgeable and help me improve my form to maximize my workouts. 5) I’d recommend CKO to EVERYONE to give it a try! 6) CKO BAYONNE is my gym because it offers a workout that challenges me daily and I love it! 🥊 🥊💥💥 🥊 🥊 🔥 💪🏻

I’ve been a member for 4 years now and I’m still as motivated and excited to go to class as I was on day one! Classes never get boring and always offer a different full body workout. Every trainer is amazing with amazing music and workouts to keep your heart rate up the entire hour. I will never return to a regular gym like Plant Fitness because I can do 10x times more at CKO in one hour than I can in 3 hours there. The environment is so friendly and motivating, it feels like a family. Trainers and staff have always treated me with kindness. Do not hesitate to join CKO, it will be the best decision ever!

Not a big fan of the front desk person Otto or Otter. I hated coming to the gym on the days he was there because he is extremely rude and condescending, almost ruined the experience for me. One time he mopped over my gloves while I was in the restroom! The trainers are nice and motivating but some of them don’t bother to come around to correct form which is extremely important in kickboxing to avoid injury. Some of the workouts should have more modifications for people who are just starting out, have joint issues (which are a good portion of us), or are simply older. To reply to the response posted from CKO, I am posting from my niece’s account as I wish to remain anonymous in fear of retaliation in case I join again one day. This is why you do not recognize the name. I was a member for quite some time. The gym is great, but Otto, thanks for spelling out his name I wasn’t sure, has a terrible attitude and gives the gym a bad vibe for several of us ladies there. It’s time for someone to come forward and say something because it’s a great gym and the front desk person shouldn’t be ruining it because he has his own personal problems. Him mopping over my things was the final straw for me personally and I’m pretty sure it won’t be long before he gets a roundhouse kick himself, not by me, but he will get the wrong person some day. Thank you and I hope this clears things up.

I had a horrible and over complicated class today. The whole goal should be to make people feel like they can get through the workout or can get through it with some work. Not to destroy them. So far I’m not getting what I pay for if I can only attend certain instructors’ classes. I don’t feel sore or like I built muscle today. I feel like I was overworked.

If an intense workout is what you are looking. This is the place. Jc Randolph and Juliana Stephanie (literally every coach I’ve takin a class with) pushes you to places you never knew your body will go. I haven’t visited classes with all the instructors yet but I know I will not be disappointed going forward.

I’ve always wanted to get into kickboxing and CKO has been great in giving me the tools I need to develop a basic understanding of the form and endurance required to master the sport- and it’s not easy- especially in the beginning. It takes a lot of focus to understand the different combinations, but the more you go, the easier it gets. I’m still learning myself and haven’t seen the results I want to see in my physique yet, but the classes are so intense that I’m sure I’ll reach my goals if I stay consistent. The trainers are really great. I especially like Coach Charlie’s class because it helped correct my technique big time, but all of the trainers are nice to work with. Each trainer has a different style but the same positive attitude so it’s mostly about what works for your body. I love that as combative as the classes are, the trainers really strive to make the gym non-competitive and an open space for beginners. There’s no form of stress relief better than hitting that bag and it really does become addictive in the best kind of way. I’m really grateful for the impact going to this gym has had on my life thus far. So, thanks CKO! 🙂

This place is amazing!! Ive always had a heart to stay active but was looking for the right gym with the right motivation and support. I saw the 6 week challenge with Julianna on IG and decided to try. I absolutely love it so far. Juliana and all the other coaches are great and they push you to the next level. The customer service is also top notch! I’ll encourage all who need that support to stay active while having fun to sign up immediately this is the place for you.

Been coming here for 3 years now, and I’m addicted! All coaches are good motivators, gives out positive energy and definitely works you hard more than you think you can….but you really can! I always feel good after an intense workout class and everyone leaves with a big Smile on their sweaty faces! Love it here!!!

Classes have been great since I started. It’s a lot of hard work but it’s worth it. I have quickly become acquainted with my strengths and limitations. Class availability are flexible with my 9-5 and the instructors are awesome. Be sure to work at your own pace and take it a day at a time.

Here we go baby! ... CKO Bayonne gym is what I think about when I imagine the perfect fitness gym. The location is excellent while the ambiance makes you feel like you want to conquer the world. Every trainers’ amazing energy and their outstanding knowledge of health and wellness are unmatched. The trainers understand everyone’s goals and each one will take an extra time during class to assist us in reaching the goals we are striving for. The classes are extremely fun but it remains intensely solid for every level of fitness. The fierce and diverse workout combinations are addicting which makes people want comeback for more sessions literally every single day. Thanks CKO Bayonne for your humble and fantastic gym!

Great classes, easy to follow along instructions and awesome coaches!!!! I’ve been to all different sessions and each coach is awesome in giving instructions, teaching techniques and stretching. Definitely check it out.... you’ll love it. I went for free class and became a member the next day. Special shout-out to coach Juliana, Deen and Charlie!!! Great cleaning protocol before and after each session. Oh, their music playlist is always on point for workouts... especially for the bag attacks!!!! GO GO GO GO!!!!

Coach Danielle and David are the best. Very accomodating, informative, professional. Time goes fast when they were the coach. I will be back after a long trip because of you both. Julianna is also very considerate regarding members situation specially is one will be away for a long time.

CKO Bayonne has a very welcoming environment. There are great coaches, such as Charlie, Juli, Mallory, and Marion, who push and motivate you to achieve your fitness goals! Every class works your strength, cardio, and technique to give you a full body workout for the whole hour.

All my life I have struggled with losing and gaining weight. At age of 30 I finally found an exercise that I can continue doing all my life and helps me with my overall health. CKO it’s not your average gym. You don’t have to set a plan and push your way through a plan to see results. CKO offers classes that meets a whole body workout without the stress of pushing yourself. There’s trainers that naturally motivates you to do more and be better every time you go to a CKO class. I love CKO for its community, trainers, and for changing my life. Because exercising is not a hobby, it is a life style and that is what CKO brings. 🥊

The very first class I took was with coach JC. I let him know it was my first time and he took the time before class to give me a quick tutorial of the basic punches and kicks that I would need to know for the class. This was appreciated and eased my nervousness a bit. After class he also took the time to talk to me and asked how I liked it. He recommended that I continue to come and try other coaches not just him, stating every coach has their own style and I could gain something from everyone. Since my first class I did take his advice, I’ve had almost all the coaches and they are all great and bring something different to the table. I must say I do make sure to take his class in particular, I like that after he teaches a combination he walks around and works with everyone using the pads. Another favorite is mine is Marion. She is high energy and I love her work out combinations! She’s great! But they all really are great! Def check out cko if your looking for a good workout. You will be dripping sweat just a few mins into it.

I used to have a really hard time working out. I’m very self-conscious, and it would deter me from becoming the best version of myself. When I would drive by CKO Bayonne, I could feel the energy and excitement pouring out of the doors. Every member looked engaged, motivated, confident, and although sweaty, extremely happy to be there. It made me feel like I wanted to be there. So, I went on Groupon, purchased a 3-class pass, and never turned back. It’s been one of the best decisions I have ever made. I’ve been a member for quite some time now, and actually look forward to working out. I have Charlie, Julie, and all of the instructors at CKO to thank for that. CKO Bayonne really cares about their craft, and their members. Each instructor has a different style to suit your needs. If you’re looking for serious technique, you can take Charlie’s class. If you want to burn your glutes, go for Julie or Dani. If you want fast paced (and a whole lotta burpees), you have to take Marion and Mallory. If you want non-stop action, go for Randolph. The variety helps to make the classes different and exciting, so you’re never bored. If you’re new to kickboxing, the instructors do a great job of showing you what you’re doing right and wrong. They’ll correct form, encourage you to push a little harder, and work with you on combo’s if you’re struggling. Again, as someone who was self-conscious, initially coming into the community felt intimidating – but everyone, down to the members, makes that insecurity go away really quickly. I absolutely love this community – from the instructors, to the receptionists (shout-out to Otto and Alex!), and the members. I couldn’t recommend CKO, and the Bayonne location, enough. In the words of Rand – Stay Hydrated, Stay Motivated, it’s not that Complicated! Krystle Petrosini (Norelli)

Halfway into my 16 week challenge and I love it. I’ve gotten stronger and better with each class. All the staff has been wonderful and very supportive. Will be continuing past the 16 weeks.

Doing 16 week challenge. Having a great time! Every class and teacher is a little different which keeps it challenging but fun. David's classes are on point. Very effective instructor.

Committing to kickboxing three times a week for four weeks straight, I gradually increased my endurance with each class, able to hold my planks longer and punch and kick a little harder with each class. My quads and glutes are more toned, and I generally feel more active as well.Everyone from the staff and members are motivating , can’t wait til next class .

CKO Bayonne is literally my happy place . After a long day of work , there is nothing better than blowing off some steam on those bags . Also , it is a safe and very welcoming environment. The trainers , all of them , are awesome and take the time to teach . The members are also great and everyone becomes friends , and motivate each other . Health and body wise, as well as mental and emotional , they do a great job at taking care of a persons well being . I literally walked in there by accident once. Cause the music was so good , and I never left! Everyone should be a member and reap the benefits of what CKO Bayonne has to offer :)

I joined CKO Bayonne back in December 2022, after the gym I had been working out at and instructing at for the past four years unfortunately closed. I'm going to be honest, before walking in the door for my first class, I was extremely nervous. I knew it was going to be difficult for me to transition to a new gym, as well as a new workout regiment, after being so dedicated to a different program previously. However, all of my fears and doubts were immediately wiped away after my first couple of classes. The instructors, the front desk staff, and the other members were all extremely welcoming, supportive, and motivating, and made me feel right at home. Yes, the workouts are intense. Yes, you're going to be sore and, like me, you're probably shoot some side eye at your Instructors multiple times during class. But, I promise you, it's all worth it. When I first started, I didn't think I'd be able to get through the workouts for a full sixty minutes - now I'm working out six days a week at CKO Bayonne. Since joining back in December 2022, I've lost twenty pounds, and I've become stronger than I've ever been, both mentally and physically. I'm grateful to all of the Instructors for pushing me to new heights and for all of the encouragement. (And a special shout out to Marion for supporting and sharing my love of all things BURPEES!)

I've been going to CKO Bayonne for half a year now and I love it here! You really don't need any kickboxing experience to start because the instructors patiently teach you along the way. The workouts are addicting, the members are welcoming and inclusive which is a plus. All of the instructors are amazing to be honest. They challenge you and always give you the best workouts. Come in and try it, I promise you'll have a great workout!

Must Read:! I found cko in the year of 2016 and is the ONLY gym that has kept me coming back , Balance who would've thought it was so important I didn't until I realized I couldn't even tie my shoe in one foot , Charlie thought me this , fun; the gym fun? Yes Randolph and Stephanie teached me this stronger than I ever thought yes, julianna teached me this, so Manny different styles and instructors and they all will teach you to be a better you , plus you will release stress while doing so give it a try , you won't regret it! .

I first joined CKO as a 6 week nutrition challenge member and I absolutely fell in love. My first class was with Coach Marion (my fav instructor) but ALL of the coaches including Julie, Charlie, (legit EVERY single one) just wants to see you be the best you, that you can be. Every time I walk in those doors I am ready to BURN THAT FAT. It was a no brainer to continue my membership after the 6 weeks. If you are where I was and debating what gym is worth it, LOOK NO FURTHER - you have found a home. I am about 8 weeks in and have lost 19lbs.

I am obsessed with CKO Bayonne. Every time I go I try to see a different instructor, and they are each unique and awesome in their own way. I always feel the workout feeling incredible. Couldn’t ask for a better workout class!!

I’ve been coming here for almost 2 months now. I have already dropped a pant size and all of the instructors have a different style so you won’t get bored! You can also go at your own level and the instructors will give you modifications based on your fitness level. Before I came I was terrified to come to take a kickboxing class because I didn’t think I was in good enough shape but after I tried out a Groupon I got hooked and became a member! If you are worried that you can’t do it! Don’t be you can do it! And the classes are fun! I had never kickboxed a day in my life but you will be surprised how after a few weeks a jab, cross, hook, roundhouse will come naturally lol 😂

CKO in Bayonne as many previous reviews point out is an amazing club to get your sweat out. Every coach/trainer you take your class with have his or her own workout routine which makes working out challenging and less dull. Eveyone is welcome here no matter the skill or shape level, all you gotta do is show up and I can guarantee that in no time you will notice positive changes to your mind and body. At the time of writing this the club offers a great deal of $69.99 for a year which in my mind is a great steal for new commers grab it before its gone !!!

I have been attending my classes for a month and I am excited, I haven't exercised for many years and it was so boring for me to go alone to a place to do things that I didn't know how to do without instructions on how to get results without having to pay a separate trainer, anyway! This morning I went early just to make the payment and the truth is that seeing everyone starting a class gave me so much encouragement and satisfaction that I wanted to stay hahaha. On the other hand, I like their policy, and although everything is in English, which I hardly understand, I take the course for each exercise and I advance, I hope they have more schedules available, and I am getting to know what each instructor is like, each one has a method different and that is very good, I already have two or three favorites and I still have some left to take classes with them, this has definitely been the best decision I have made in years. I recommend it
