Those aren’t just words on paper, they’re words we live by. Our mission at 9Round is Making members stronger in 30 minutes, physically and mentally. We’re dedicated to enriching people’s lives through our kickboxing fitness program, and our team is the most important part of making our mission a reality. 

9Round was founded in 2008 by Shannon “The Cannon” Hudson, a World Kickboxing Champion, and his wife Heather “The Hero” Hudson, an avid fitness enthusiast. Since then, the kickboxing-fitness franchise has been delivering fast, effective, full-body workouts to members of local studios in the US, Canada, and across the globe. 9Round continues to gain popularity as people search for a fast and fun workout that they don’t have to schedule their lives around. With an instructor facilitating each workout, 9Round is able to ensure that each session is effective for every member at every fitness level.
