POW! Gym Chicago & Chicago Parisi Speed School

My daughter just finished her 1st day of summer camp and she loves it. She asked if she could go all summer! Lizzy was great answering all our questions and is really attentive to the kids.

We did an hour long team building self defense class at POW and everyone loved it! I was amazed with how much I learned in just an hour but it also made me realize how much I do not know. I will definitely be back!

POW in Hawaiian have meaning of finishing work. so this place makes me wanna finish off in strong manner no excuses . just go and get it. nice surrounding an people in this place . make you want to go harder and push it to the limit. I have a fair pay so its affordable for me. I'm Hawaiian so love to much things around lol . sport culture please spread around towards our youth and upcoming generations. Thank Micky for the guide

There are many great things I could say about POW! Gym, one that really goes above and beyond for me is the commitment not only to the children’s physical well being, but also their academics. My children look forward to going and are typically reluctant to leave.

Environment is clean, welcoming and family friendly. The staff is also friendly and patient and encouraging. There is a good variation of classes and services. My son feels comfortable and does not feel judged.

I really love the variety and the intensity of the workouts. I'm in terrible shape but I feel like I get to push myself every class. More importantly, the staff and owner are awesome. It's a very welcoming vibe without being pushy :-)

POW is a great facility to learn self defense & strength and conditioning for yourself and family with a knowledgeable and welcoming staff. I went to Katalin to learn Krav Maga and found so much more. Their strength and conditioning classes will transform your body. And it's not only a physical practice, they can also support your nutritional needs.Their kids classes support kids of all levels and assist each child in uncovering their inner strength and confidence. They are well thought out classes to balance kids strengths.They also have the most creative kids Birthday parties. The Nerf party was awesome!

I like the variety of classes they have. The classes challenge you but you can do it at your own pace. No pressure from the trainers but a lot of encouragement. The staff is helpful and friendly. It is clean and well equipped. Their classes adpt to beginners and competitors. I just enjoy working out there. Super recommended.

Love how this gym feels like home and all the staff feel like family. I have been coming here for over 6mnts now and I love it so much. Couldn’t see myself going anywhere else. Fun and friendly and truly wants you to be here. You don’t feel like just another number like at larger gyms. This gym experience is personal and comfortable. If you want to have fun and get a great workout this is definitely the place for you. If you come to POW! You won’t regret it. (Try B.A.D)

This place is great! Super friendly, kind, and knowledgeable staff, GREAT equipment, and a training regiment that will get any person at any athletic level where they need to be. I have competed martial arts for years, and came here for my strength training, recovery, and conditioning. I lost ten lbs in only a few months, between the owner Katalin, and Coach Sue, I'm moving better at 34, than I have in years. Thanks you're awesome!!
