So what really differentiates these guys from the rest? It is simply the people. Love the staff and energy. It's hard to find the right gym, but if you aren't squatting you are doing it wrong or you are in the wrong place. At KB-One the classes are great and they really gets the pulls going. Super workouts every time :-))

For a little over 6 months, all in private training sessions with Kru Mehdi I have been training at KB-One, and am honored to not only have Mehdi as my trainer, but to also to now have him as my friend.
The gym is immaculately clean - and the training that I initially expressed an interest in has been followed to the letter. From Day one my expectations and goals were very clearly discussed and put into a realistic timeframe, along with the work that it would take in order for me to achieve them. No smoke and mirrors here.
Not only has my progression been consistent and steady but Kru Mehdi has

The kids class at KB-One is amazing. Through wonderful leadership, demonstrated compassion and an environment built for children to thrive, my daughter has developed friendships, confidence and self esteem. Thank you, Mehdi, Frankie and all the teachers at KB-One. We can not wait for our younger kids to join our eldest with you!

At KB-One, everyone is welcome. The facility is fantastic— it is clean, functional, spacious, and inviting. All of the instructors are amazing and are very passionate and devoted, not only to your progress as an athlete, but as a person. Since coming to classes, I have encountered such immense person growth and have so much respect and gratitude towards KB-One.

Wow. What an amazing Muay thai boxing academy! It all started 4 years ago when we signed up our 6 years old daughter. This has been a fantastic journey with a group of remarkable people: Miss Barb, Kru Medhi, Miss Katie, Fiacra and many many more. They have instilled confidence, discipline, ability, agility and physical well being. Our girl is blessed to have such mentorship and a safe empowered place to learn and grow. We are forever grateful and have to say Thank You to Kru Mehdi and Miss Barb for treating our daughter so well, Much Respect.

For the past few years I have been doing private lessons at KB-ONE in the wee hours of the morning to suit a busy work/mom schedule. I came with a lower back injury in tow and they’ve built me back up with proper form and core strength. Having a fully trained instructor watch your every move and correct your stance, alignment, work on building your core, moving from your core as well as persevere through the mental game and adrenaline rush has helped me in all aspects of my life. I’m am grateful to Barb and KB-ONE for getting me into the ring for the first time and back on the bag and for patiently

I have trained in the KB ONE kickboxing gym for 3-4 years now. It has changed my mentality and my physicality completely. I have trained with Mehdi and he has given me excellent knowledge about fighting as well as teaching. I would recommend going to sign up because it will give you a total new experience to kickboxing.

Been coming to this gym for years. At first it was about getting the training I wanted and location convenience. Now as I see so many gyms pop up around me I realize that I keep coming back to Mehdi and Barb… at KB-ONE because of the community they’ve built. Somehow over the ten plus year I have been coming here they have managed to forge a slightly different path than other gyms I have worked out at. There is a very unusual and powerful balance here between the elite competition level training that Mehdi and Barb provide and the family atmosphere they nurture. They do that by personally

I am very sad to write a poor review for a local business but I feel my story should be shared. I have trained at KB ONE for four years, part of which I was also teaching kids and beginner classes. Recently I was unemployed and unable to afford to train (a whopping $130 for 2 classes per week) and when I told Mehdi that I couldn't continue due to… financial issues, immediately he cancelled my membership and charged me a massive cancellation fee of $325. All though it does state in the contract that upon cancellation you would be charged 40% of your remaining balance, I had forgotten (like
