CKO KickBoxing... anyone join?

I googled CKO and see they have a free trial class. Why not go and try and inquire on pricing?

Burning 1,000 calories in an hour is a pretty tall order, but I believe kickboxing is a pretty good way to get there if it's pretty close to non-stop intense.

I've trained Krav Maga for the past three years, which, at my gym, includes hour classes of a lot of conditioning (not 1,000 cals because there's a good bit of stopping and watching instruction) plus they offer bag classes that are all out cardio punching, kicking, burpees, etc. using and refining the techniques we learn for Krav. It's a fantastic workout and I love it. I attend three classes a week - a half hour of bag plus an hour of Krav per session, and then lift four days a week. I've gotten absolutely fantastic results from this routine. For me, I appreciate the self defense combatives because I learn some valuable skills in addition to just an all-out cardio session.
