Get started with confidence!

Starting something new can be intimidating. We’ve designed an enrollment process that will make sure you feel comfortable and excited on your first day.

Joining a gym has never felt more comfortable

Your Foundations Course is 4 classes over a period of two weeks. These sessions are exclusive to new members which makes it less intimidating than walking into a class full of veteran members.

These progressive classes will:

  • Teach you everything from the basics to more advanced concepts of movement.
  • Give you more time to practice and ask questions.
  • Utilize the same class format as regular classes to keep your experience consistent.
  • Help you develop consistency and increase your endurance so you’re ready for regular classes.
  • Give you a chance to meet other new members and find friends and accountability partners.

First Timer FAQs

How much are your memberships?

When looking for a new gym you want to make sure it’s a good fit. What are some key factors to consider:

  • Mission and alignment with your values
  • Community (are these your people?)
  • The vibe (does it feel good to be in the space?)
  • The movement (do you like the movement?)
  • Schedule (does it fit with your schedule?)
  • Cost (does it fit in your budget?)

Making sure a membership fits within your budget is important but make sure you are considering the other factors as well. Schedule a free consult with one of our coaches to review the options.

What happens after I finish my intro session?

After you complete one of our intro session options, you’ll be ready to join our community! All members have a monthly plan which you can choose at any point during your intro course.

What if I can’t make it to all of the Kickboxing Foundations classes?

We ask that you are able to commit to at least half of the classes. If you’re unable to make it to one of your Foundations classes, we will offer you a complimentary credit in a regular class.

Do you allow drop-ins?

Our mission is to create a positive and comfortable experience for new women which is why we have designed the required enrollment options listed above. We don’t offer drop-in classes.

Am I too young/old for this workout?

Never—we have members from 18-80. Our coaches will provide moderations to every workout! This is a great program that parents and children can do together. Families that train together, stick together.

Do I need previous experience?

No. In fact, we love working with new members. Our coaches will guide you every step of the way to ensure you are doing the techniques properly.

Do I need to be in shape?

Definitely NOT. Most of our new members are either starting or getting back into the journey of fitness. Our coaches will work with you to build an effective and manageable plan. 

Where do I start? How do I become a member?

Our mission is to make everyones experience positive and comfortable. We’ve designed a special enrollment process to help everyone get started with confidence. Your first step is to complete one of our Introductory Sessions. To learn more, visit your closest location and view how to get started.

I ventured to Kuma Fit in search of women-only fitness classes with encouragement on strength and feeling confident; my expectations were exceeded. Kuma is the most welcoming and comfortable place to move your body; all exercises can be adjusted to level of comfort, and all of the clientele are there for support and encouragement. This is truly a judgement-free, women-empowerment environment. Not to be forgotten, kickboxing itself is therapeutic; No matter what’s going on, when I leave a class I feel at ease, and proud that I have taken care of my body and mental needs. Definitely give this place a try, you won’t regret it.

This is not a gym...it is a community of Women pushing each other to succeed in fitness goals and over all wellness. The vibe makes up you want to show up and push your limits...but...plenty of support on those days you run out of steam.

Just wanted to update my review and say I recently hit 250 classes. I am still so thankful I pushed myself out of my comfort zone and checked this place out. The community is amazing, the support from everyone (coaches and peers alike) is insane and I highly recommend you check it out! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I've been going to Kuma since July 2021 and it's been so much fun. The coaches take the time to get to know each and every member and go out of their way to make you feel welcome and comfortable. They offer a wide variety of classes and you leave feeling like a total badass. They focus on empowerment and strength which is refreshing for a fitness studio. I look forward to my classes each week!

Kuma is the inclusive gem I didn't know I needed. I needed to change up my workout routine and challenge myself with something new, so I gave Kuma a shot. The instructors are fantastic (special shout out to Mary and the 6 AM crew), they meet you where you're at and encourage you to dig deeper. Everyone is so welcoming and encouraging, Kuma is truly invested in your success and constantly recognizes milestones and consistency. Love to see their expansion so that more people can enjoy all that Kuma has to offer!

KUMA is an absolute gem! If you’re someone who dreads working out and you are here to see if this place will be different, I can assure you it will be! At KUMA, I feel welcomed, empowered and strong. The coaches are uplifting, energizing and helpful. They truly make the classes special. KUMA is building a community here in Westbrook, and I hope you decide to be a part of it!

I'm so very happy and excited to have found a home here. From first consult, first class and beyond you feel welcomed. This is a wonderful place that helps tap into your strength. Those pesky "I don't know if I can" have become " I don't know if I can stop! Woohoo!" You are your metric here and I bet you'll be surprised how much fun you have.

I've been going to KUMA for just over a year, and it has completely changed my outlook on exercise, fitness, and self image. The workout structure allows you to challenge yourself at your own pace, and the community of women that attend are so amazing! Highly recommend!

I stumbled upon KUMA through the recommendations of friends. Despite my initial reservations about traditional gyms, I decided to give it a try. To my pleasant surprise, this studio offered a warm and welcoming atmosphere right from the start, and I was immediately hooked. Kickboxing quickly became one of my newfound passions. KUMA is home to an exceptional community of supportive, friendly, and inspiring women. If you're searching for a welcoming studio, fun movements, and a comfortable environment to explore something new, KUMA is the place. 🙂
