    “Free” 6-week challenge isn’t free. You pay several hundred dollars upfront and get credit towards additional classes if you meet certain weight loss expectations. Please note that advertising this as “free” without any terms and conditions stating the costs attached is intentionally misleading, intended to put individuals into high-pressure sales situations, and violates the Federal Trade Commission rules related to false advertising online. If you have a great gym, you’ll get loyal clients. Offer real free trials and classes as opposed to tricking people into it - I’m sure many people have seen results and appreciate that level of accountability, but I’m equally sure far fewer would schedule initial check-ins with coaches if they were aware of this upfront.

    I use to attend this gym when it was Best Hour kickboxing. Unfortunately the old owner decided to sell the gym to Kim and now the gym is known as Fit Therom. Kim has destroyed this gym. You use to walk into an amazing, happy and joyful gym with the best instructors. Now it’s instructors that know nothing about kickboxing and they only care about your money. They do not follow their contract. Do NOT sign up for a challenge - it’s a scam and you will lose all of your money. They don’t care about you whatsoever. They only care about making money. It’s truly disgusting. Spend your money at a gym that actually cares about you!

    My husband and I tried this "gym" out because we were looking for a new kickboxing gym since mine shut it's doors during COVID. This is NOT kickboxing it is a mix of Zumba and Tae Bo. There is no real instruction, no equipment aside from cheap heavy bags, and the "trainers" seem to only be there to browbeat the mostly female members (my husband was the only male aside from the trainer) into showing up. There was a lot of body shaming and negging happening throughout the classes we attended and it made us both so uncomfortable we decided to not finish out the 12 days we had paid for. About a month later, today, I see a $338 charge on my card from this gym. I called them to try to get it sorted out. The man (manager I'm guessing) who I spoke to on the phone insisted I was insulting him personally by saying we didn't want to continue at the gym and said he was now going to refuse to refund me, then he hung up on me. I tried calling back and he is not answering the phone. He did email me the billing agreement his employee signed us up for and I tried to contact the billing email but only received an automated email back. We discussed a 12 day/one month trial membership with the young man who signed us up, and stated that we just wanted to try it out to see if we wanted a membership. He filled some stuff out on a computer then had us sign a waiver. Unless you want to be insulted repeatedly, be told the best way to "get back" at your ex is to lose weight, and then charged for a membership you never wanted you probably want to avoid this place.

    BestHour Kickboxing is an amazing gym! I started here as a part of their 6-Week Challenge. I had recently gained a ton of weight and needed something to help spark my desire to get on a health & wellness journey. Needless to say, it surpassed all of my expectations. The classes are explosive. The coaches are always encouraging you to push past your comfort zone. The best thing about this gym, is their embrace of people from all fitness levels. Since I started in March, I've lost a total of 60 lbs! The staff here are the most supportive group I've encountered in a while. They are 100% authentic in helping you crush your goals. They are the reason why I decided to stay! 10/10 Recommend! Five stars! Get you a membership today! :) EDIT: My review is about the BestHour Kickboxing staff-- I canceled my membership before the full takeover of the FitTheorem Staff. I don't think the new staff is as friendly.

    Amazing gym that delivers results in as little as 1 month. I lost 6lbs but someone else in my group doing the program they offered, lost 12lbs. In 4 weeks! Your results depend on your hard work, but they have an amazing team of instructors that keep you accountable. I don't know how many gyms I have signed up and joined, and nothing happened because I had no idea what I was doing and also, I didn't go lol This gym was totally different, the staff is dedicated to my workout and my results (if you are results oriented) If you're looking for just a kickass place to get your fitness in, this place is great the night classes offer amazing energy to blow off steam after work or the morning classes to set the tone of your day to 'badass' . I love all my instructors, and the friends I've made on the mat. I'm a shy person, but somehow it's just easy to make friends here. They make sure its cleaned after every class, sanitizing bags and lockers. Before Besthour, I was embarrassed and unhealthy and in a bad place mentally. Best Hour brought me back to life by teaching me how to prioritize myself and work the out stress. I never thought I would like hitting and kicking a bag, but honestly it's the best stress relief I've ever found. Haha Great classes, great music, great leaders and great members. I would recommend this gym to anyone, if there is something missing in your life, it might be BestHour Kickboxing :) They also have an amazing online library of videos from weight lifting to on demand full length kickboxing classes, and all classes are available via zoom too. The best part is, if you're a member of the gym you have access to both locations, Kent and Federal Way, and delivered right to your TV or zoom screen. I like Kent because the mat has much more space than Federal Way. But I usually go to Federal Way because it is closer to home. But each location has the same instructors and the same classes offered. Just a different layout of the studio :)

    #Besthour Kickboxing is a fun, high energy workout available for all skill levels and body types. They are in studio with great precautions. You can workout from home on Zoom or the on-demand library. Join us. Whether you like to workout in the morning or afternoon/evening #BestHour has helped me get get in shape and relieve stress, all the while having a good time and making new friends. All of the instructors are super friendly and helpful and want you to succeed in your fitness goals. This studio is also very community conscious and gives back every month. Don't be intimidated and join our friendly fit family.

    The classes were great however there was multiple times of miscommunication. I took part in a 6 week challenge and spoke with a coach there about the concerns of if I wasn't able to hit the goals despite all the items being met and was told that the deposit could roll to the next challenge and was tentatively held a spot for the next challenge which started the last day of the prior challenge I participated in. Due to some unexpected circumstances I couldn't join that challenge on that day but asked to join the next one two weeks later. Only to be told sorry, what that coach told you was incorrect (and it was that same coach who told me this in first place) was incorrect. I showed huge improvements visually and via photos but just didn't hit the actual number goal. This is NOT worth the $200 a month membership, and definitely NOT worth the $799 paid for the membership for the challenge. I will NOT be joining again as this was a huge miscommunication on their end. I also purchased a shirt which was being made and not yet delivered to location. I only discovered it was delivered because they CHARGED my card for it but didn't tell me. If I hadn't had checked my bank statement and contacted them I never would have gotten notified of it being delivered and they would have just taken my money. Don't join unless you want to essentially be lied too. I would give 0 stars if possible.

    This place is amazing! The staff is great, their energy makes you want to keep going during every class. They’re very helpful for beginners and people who need to modify or take things slow. Everyone I’ve met here has also been very helpful and encouraging. Best hour has a wonderful community!

    As a new mama, this place has been a haven for my physical, mental and emotional health. After about 2 months of training, I have noticed such a difference in my physique and energy levels. I was intimidated at first, but the coaches are so empowering and I’m getting faster and stronger each time I go in. Not only do I get to release stress, but it’s become a great community to be a part of!

  • 1/5 Erika F. 1 year ago on Google
    I wasn’t allowed to attend the class because I was 3 minutes late for a 7:30 am class. If you’re fine with that then you should have no issues with this place but things happen and I will not be going back here because of that policy. I’ve had free Zumba classes more understanding than this place.

    Found this gym through an Instagram post advertising a 6 week total body transformation. I was skeptical but went in to meet with a fitness coach anyway (totally prepared to not sign up). Well not only did I sign up for the challenge, but I CRUSHED my goals with the help of the amazing coaches and guidance. They were so supportive and really made me feel like family from day 1. I have sinced turned my challenge membership into a yearly membership and I have not regretted a single minute. Hands down best gym in town.

    Staff is very supportive and engaging. Excellent environment for loosing weight and getting an all around workout, way better than any big box gym. Special thanks to Kimberly for taking the time to help me select the best work out plan tailored for me. The six week program helped me burn my belly fat that was weighing me down. Highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Sooze J. 6 months ago on Google
    The six week kickboxing/eating clean challenge is the bomb diggity. I am 56 years old, lost 6.4% body fat, I’m down 10.1 pounds, and impressively I put on 2.5 pounds of muscle. I became addicted to kickboxing and its cardiovascular benefits, watching my BPM resting heart rate go from 73 down to 66 in six weeks. Kickboxing is the real deal and is badass. Coaches are knowledgeable, classes are fun, and the facilities are immaculate!

  • 5/5 Verna S. 7 months ago on Google
    Kickboxing is one of the most intense and exciting workouts. I've joined several gyms just didn't do it for me. Been with Fit Therom for 7 years and it's so difficult to stop. It's part of my life now. Every workout is always a challenge but so worth it.  I feel stronger and healthier. Kim was my instructor on my first day and ever since I never left. Thank you, Kim and her team!! You have no idea how much you’ve changed my life. You are all amazing! Keep it up!!! Can't wait to see how many more studios you will open up #keepchanginglives

    🥊 The culture of the staff and members is extremely welcoming and helpful! I signed up for the monthly membership since I knew an instructor led class with fun, loud, energetic music was what I was looking for. 🥊 I just got through my first 2 weeks and have to say the kickboxing classes (non-sparring/bag only) are a killer workout. Especially when trying to focus on balancing my power with endurance. There is also enough room for you to bounce around the bag and focus in on your strikes without having to worry about another person in your proximity. 🥊 The strength classes are more focused on powerful strikes with the addition of bodyweight exercises (sometimes with weights) as a circuit. The strength classes are higher in difficulty. 🥊 I lifted weights at a big box gym before this which I happened to enjoy, but here is more of a cardio/endurance/bodyweight strength training which I find to be more enjoyable, engaging, and functional. Plus no waiting around for machines! 🥊 Equipment requirements for the class: Hand wraps + boxing gloves. I bought both from a sporting goods store, but they have them for sale if needed. 🥊 I would recommend this place to someone who has a passion for fitness who is bored with their big box gym or general routine. Every class has been different variations of kickboxing and bodyweight exercises that keep it fresh each time. 🥊 The cost of membership is going to be higher than any big box gym, but the class structure, fun environment, and coaching (for anyone who ops in for the 6 week challenge) is well worth it. Shout out to Josh and Coach Karyn!

    If you are looking for support, motivation you have come to the right place. Best coaches, best trainers ever. Their meal plans are easy to stick with. The plus is you build muscles and you get a toned body. Plus who doesn't want to hit a bag with new friends. So hurry and join hope to see you there.

    #BestHour has been life changing for me! There is something about group fitness that I find to be more motivational and easier to be consistent with, which I find leads to more success for me personally. I have made great friends and workout buddies - and the instructors have all been so encouraging in the time that I’ve been a member. I would (and have) recommended #BHK to anyone who is looking for a way to spice up their exercise routine!

  • 5/5 Devilline 1 year ago on Google
    BestHour has become a second home for me. Through my time I have grown physically and and mentally. I went from the timid quiet guy who prefers to be alone to being confident, strong, and open. This is thanks to the wonderful people here at BestHour, instructors and fellow classmates. Studio offers cardio kickboxing, fight training, and strength classes. Highly recommend for a killer workout in a motivating atmosphere with a great community.

    I joined Besthpur during Covid. My friends invited me to go. I started off with 8 classes a month, but quickly realized that wouldn't be enough! The staff are very supportive and encouraging, high energy. Everyone welcomes you no matter where you are in your fitness journey. I have learned a lot about fitness and nutrition. The staff have done a great job of creating a family feeling. They are always challenging us to do our best.

  • 5/5 Shannon J. 1 year ago on Google
    Best Hour Kickboxing has taken the joy I feel in life to a new level. At 48 I am the most fit I have ever been. The staff and members have hearts so full to support others that my confidence and sense of self is beyond any level I thought possible. This has become one of the best decisions of my life.

  • 5/5 Cindy M. 1 year ago on Google
    #Besthour Kickboxing is awesome. It’s a fun, high energy workout available for all skill levels and body types. The instructors are knowledgeable and genuinely care about people’s health/fitness journey. They go out of their way to make sure you feel encouraged, help with technique, push you to reach your goals and make you feel part of a community. They have classes in-person, on zoom and on-demand. There is a strong community feel here with everyone being inviting and encouraging. So happy to be part of the FitFam!

  • 5/5 Ashley N. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely love besthour kickboxing! The instructors are amazing and they have so much to offer. There’s in person classes, zoom classes, and pre recorded classes you can take. It’s such a fun place to get in your workout!

  • 5/5 Bridget M. 1 year ago on Google
    Best Hour Kickboxing isn’t your ordinary gym; it’s a fit family! The instructors actually care that you meet your goals. They are supportive and motivating. They listen to what you want to achieve and guide you through the process. The other gym members are terrific. They get to know you and cheer you on. I joined for the cardio burn and stayed for the fun, friendly, inclusive atmosphere. It’s truly the best hour of my day.

  • 5/5 Joyce A. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the best decisions I’ve made for myself is become a part of #BestHour kickboxing, not only to get back into shape but also to be part of an amazing community. I look forward to coming each week because I love the variety in workouts every class and the amazing members I get to know as well. On top of having the best hour of my day, I’m becoming stronger, more confident and having more energy. TJ, Sara, Mark, Gabe, Danni and Joshua make this place an incredible environment and they all go out of their way to make sure you feel encouraged, to help with technique, to push you to reach your goals and to make you feel a part of the community too. Also one of the cleanest studios I’ve been to and I still feel completely safe coming in. There are so many options as well if you’re not ready to come in studio yet from on-demand classes online and Zoom. You won’t regret checking it out!

  • 5/5 Nina T. 2 years ago on Google
    #BestHour Kickboxing is where it's at!! I have been a member for almost a year now and it has completely transformed my body, mind, and strength.  The instructors are amazing and help you reach your goals with their knowledge of kickboxing and nutrition.  Plus they are all super nice! I have lost 40lbs since July 2020 and it is all because of making the changes to add a new fitness regime into my weekly schedule.  Thank you #BestHour Kickboxing!

  • 5/5 Sheila M. 4 years ago on Google
    I cannot recommend ILKB-Kent highly enough. To say I was exercise adverse is an understatement. Now, I have a genuine Fit Fam and an activity I love. This staff ROCKS! You should stop procrastinating and join us, you won't regret it. 🥊

  • 5/5 Angie J. 2 years ago on Google
    I have been a member since March of 2017. I took a break for 1 year for mom duties. I came back on August of 2020. The #BestHour is a great place to workout, it is a community and family. What nice, I was able to have my son work out with me. During COVID the school is closed. The studio was able to accept all the teens age 11 to come workout. I always feel welcome with all the great energy with instructor and members. I feel safe coming to work, in with all the precautions and cleanliness the studio takes. I've come to studio tired with no energy come out with amazing full body workout!

  • 5/5 Anna M. 2 years ago on Google
    I signed up in October 2021 to lose all the extra pounds and to get ready for my upcoming wedding. I was super out of shape and hadn’t worked out consistently in years. I love how inclusive they are, all ages and fitness levels are welcome. The staff and members are friendly and positive, supportive of your goals, and just a really awesome community of people. Classes are always fun and a great way to sweat and get rid of stress. I can definitely feel the mental and physical improvements since joining and highly recommend to anyone looking to build strength and lose weight. As a bonus, they have zoom and on-demand options with your membership, which I find highly valuable. They also have motivating fitness challenges that will help you meet your fitness goals.
