About 9Round Kickboxing

9Round is a kickboxing fitness franchise with 700+ locations worldwide, founded in 2008 in Greenville, South Carolina. Known for its unique 9-station, 30-minute kickboxing circuit workout with no class times — members can start whenever they arrive.

9Round's no-class-schedule model eliminates the biggest barrier to gym attendance: having to be there at a specific time. The 30-minute circuit format appeals to busy professionals and parents. The relatively low investment makes 9Round one of the most accessible boutique fitness franchises.
