Nothing but good things to say about this place! I started in February with my daughter (she's 12) so we could work out together. I also went through a little bout of stage 4 cancer not long ago, and wanted to get my cardio back (chemo slammed my red blood cells and left me a bit anemic).
This is a "boutique" gym that does HIIT-style workouts with a kickboxing flavour. At about half of the stations you're wearing boxing gloves and wraps to protect your hands (and trainers' teeth during focus mitt rounds). These are mandatory, and you buy these as a package when you join.
The workouts LOOK easy sometimes, but don't be fooled! The jumping rope, kettlebells, and different bag drills (punches, kicks, knees) are set up in a way that make for a killer workout. Each station lasts 3 minutes like a boxing round, then you have a 30-second break to switch and set up at the next one. During the break you can do a suggested "active rest" exercise if you like. You can take things slow at first, and pick up your pace as you improve (there's never any pressure, and other members are always supportive). Even with my health issue I improved quickly by going 3 times a week.
This facility is open 24/7. During staffed hours there's at least one trainer who'll motivate you, keep your form safe, or take you for a one-on-one round with the focus mitts/pads. This is the only physical contact you'll find here (there's no sparring allowed). During unstaffed hours you can get access to the studio with a phone app, and train on your own. Each station has a screen showing you a video of what exercise or drill to do at that station, and things are pretty clear.
Prior experience in kickboxing or martial arts helps, but it's not a must! The gym runs a workshop every once in a while to tweak your form, so if you feel you need instruction to perfect your punches and kicks you can sign up for one of these.
Overall, working out at 9Round Orleans West is a great experience! Visit their website to set up a trial session and see for yourself.

I have been a member for just over a year now and enjoy it more and more with each passing week. The changing workouts keep me challenged, as do the coaches! What I love most is the sense of positive and supportive community from coaches and members alike. All around an enjoyable gym atmosphere. Thanks Mel and team!

I am a relatively new member but the encouragement, trainer-support and different workouts everyday have really improved my overall fitness. The staff are so friendly and really help you focus on improving. I highly recommend 9Round Orleans West.

I've been a member for over two months now and I am obsessed with the place and method. It is a fast workout which is easier to fit our busy schedules. The staff is awesome, Cat has a contagious energy, Eric and Xavier are always guiding us how to get the best out of the workout. It's a perfect combination for someone like me that doesn't like going to the gym. Now I get myself looking forward to know the next challenge as they daily change the workout. Go for a trial if you can, I highly recommend.
