CKO Kickboxing, a health fitness franchise, will open its first kickboxing gym in Belmont, NH on November 15, 2016.

The 5,000-square-foot CKO Kickboxing gym in the Belknap Mall, 96 Daniel Webster Highway, Belmont, NH features 50 heavy bags.

The franchise owner, Vincent Andreula, came to CKO Kickboxing through a family connection. His brother, Joseph Andreula, opened the first CKO Kickboxing gym back in 1997 in Hoboken, NJ and started franchising in 2008.

“The image of those happy people never left my mind and I wanted one day to own my own CKO Kickboxing franchise,” Vincent Andreula said.
