FitTheorem - Federal Way

DO NOT think twice ! Sign UP NOW! By far the best decision Ive made as a previous member and instructor! Such an POSITIVE atmosphere with great staff, members & instructors. I’ve gained mental and physical growth through this community! FitTheorm helps you with nutrient plans & trust me you will see results compared to other gyms!! Ask the Kent team and they will gladly sign you up!

FitTheorem changed my life. I was struggling a lot with anxiety and this location saved me. The instructors genuinely care about you and give amazing feedback. I’ve never once had an issue here and would never go back to a regular gym. I appreciate the accountability and the atmosphere here. Good music, great instructors and a community that support each other. You will not regret it!!!!

I was member of Best hour kickboxing and it was the best gym I have ever been! It felt like family with nice and very professional coaches. When business was sold to other owners it became the worst. Poor communication, bad knowledge about kickboxing and fitness, very cold environment. I’m very sad that I needed to stop my membership, but this place became absolutely bad from all points of view. And waste of money . Zero stars👎

I waited to post this. Do your research and check out every other boxing and fitness center before joining and especially before signing up for a challenge.This used to be my fitness home for almost 7 years it WAS life-changing, the community and support from the knowledgeable instructors and Members made this place so special. That special community is what made loyal members continue to support the business and instructors throughout Covid. Unfortunately this does not exist any longer.I have been through numerous acquisitions and mergers, and understand that change is inevitable. I embrace change with a positive mindset and supported this studio through lots of changes.Unfortunately, recent management changes has made it impossible for me to continue to pay and support such a terrible leadership.The studio used to be about changing peoples lives through Fitness and truly caring . They USED to have knowledgeable instructors that cared and knew how to kickbox and knew people by name, and would check in on you if you weren’t coming to class consistently and help celebrate your milestones and achievements because they cared. This is no longer the case.This new “leader” implemented a “grow or die philosophy ” where it’s “really conform or die and do not take any feedback or constructive criticism environment and let’s ruin everything that’s special ” All the incredible instructors left and they can barely keep new instructors, most of the current ones have ZERO knowledge and they are losing instructors at such a fast rate that they can’t train.Many Longtime members have left because of this. This new leader censors, deletes and kicks people out of the FB group if you comment on anything that she doesn’t agree with, especially if they are legitimate concerns or questions.They try and make it look like the classes at the FW and Kent location are huge by using other studio pictures and have employees or members from other studios try and engage in positive posts. Some of recent positive Google reviews (not all) are not from members from the actual locations.Now it’s completely all about greed and meeting challenge and sales quotas and fakeness to get people to sign up. Be careful with the challenges they’re very expensive and NOT incentivized for you to actually complete the challenge and get all of your money back.I hope you find a fitness home.

I can no longer endorse Fittheorem because it seems they prioritize profit over the member experience, and the quality has significantly declined since the change in ownership."“It’s not the place it’s the people”-Well the people have all left due to the new ownership and horrible management.They have changed policies that have negatively affected our classes.We have had last minute class cancellations, they changed the class times and offered less classes that has lead to us not being able to get our workouts. Our Zoom classes have been inconsistent because they forget or don’t care to start the zoom class.When questioned about these changes, everyone was told something different.We have lost amazing instructors because they are simply run down and under valued by Fittheorem.They have brought in new instructors that have no previous fitness experience or training.its just been a horrible transition.Several of us have been members for years. We even supported the previous owner (BestHour Fitness) through the Covid shutdown by continuing to pay our membership.We (over 100 members) have chosen to cancel our membership due to the greed and the lack of professionalism by Fittheorem.Do your research but I suggest finding a different gym that cares about you and your fitness journey.

Prior to new ownership, this was my home away from home. The staff were amazing, the atmosphere supportive and energetic. New owners, staff is leaving faster than imagined, members canceling after working out for YEARS at the gym. So disappointed and sad!

Update to my review since this business is now FitTheorem: I’ve been a member since 2019 when it was ILKB to Best Hour Kickboxing and I will not be renewing my membership here. DO NOT spend your money here, toxic culture from management and it’s their way or the highway. If you sign up for any challenges, it is a scam and you pay the money upfront even though they say it’s “free”. No standards or integrity and they don’t care about the members or feedback from members because if you say something, they’ll view it as negativity and it’ll get censored or deleted in the FB group they have. It’s all about $$$$ over people here and honestly you’ll find a better environment elsewhere especially one that you pay monthly for. For a gym that is supposed to be a happy and safe place for you, culture is so unhealthy that it stresses current members out and is totally the opposite affect you’d think a gym would have on people. Also the most recent positive reviews (within the last 3-4 months) were an incentive for people to enter a giveaway for a free one month of membership so take those ones with a grain of salt. Also the owner has been commenting on some of the 5 star reviews because they’re friends or family of hers and they have never been at either the Kent or FW location. Would give 0 stars if I can but do not recommend this place!!!

I started the 6 week challenge 2 weeks ago and am already down 5 pounds! But even better than that are the non scale victories. My back doesn't hurt as much, I have more confidence, I can tell I'm building strength every class and I realized that I can do hard things!

I 100% recommend! It is a great workout with a total No Judgement atmosphere! Literally everyone, staff and fellow kickboxers are willing to help and support you! Any body type, any fitness level, any goal… Join! Instructors will help with …

When I started this challenge I didn't think I would get this far, I have tried many ways to lose weight and keep fit, diets, different types of exercise but nothing has worked, until one day when I was browsing Facebook I saw an ad that said they were looking for women brave to do a challenge, I said this is my chance, I have to do this for my health and what do you think? 6 weeks later I am testifying that it is one of the best things that has happened to me, I lost 15 pounds in 6 weeks, it sounds easy but it is not, there is discipline and training involved, and if I did it, anyone can do it . It is one of the best ways to lose weight and keep fit, I am very happy to have finished and I am staying with kickboxing to stay in shape and achieve the final goal. So I recommend 100%
