  • I came here on a Deal voucher. It was something like 20 boxing classes for $40 with an image of a woman and boxing gloves, so I was excited and hoped they would have a program geared to training women. They sold a ton of them, so that should have been a warning sign. After going to five evening classes and never once doing anything related to boxing, I stopped going. Not even an intro to boxing or discussion of it, no bag work, nothing. The whole thing was unstructured with different people attending every week and it just felt like I was repeating the same workout every week. I didn't mind the intense cardio. It was the lack of progression that made me lose interest. What I did was a 2 hour bootcamp-style fitness session designed for weight loss, something I don't need. The trainer would say "do 50x" or "100 of y", you'd do it, finish, and he'd be no where to be found, so you were just standing there with 5-10 other people waiting for the next drill. I understand that you can't just come here and jump in the ring as a beginner, but it felt like the ring was reserved for teenaged boys every time I was there. In the workout session I did with other women, we were only allowed into the ring once. Because of this, it didn't feel like an egalitarian environment. Like the other reviews mention, this is very much an old fashioned, man's boxing gym. It's dirty, things are old, the equipment was tattered, the carpet is practically calcified with sweat, and you *will* be face down on it at some point. My biggest issue about the facility itself was the lack of proper ventilation. With less than 10 people working out, the air became heavy and fetid quickly. They desperately need a fresh air recovery system in there. The trainer would go around and spray this artificial strawberry scented air freshener on all the sweat soaked equipment after the teenaged boys left, right next to us as we were doing drills adding to the air quality denigration. I could look past all of that if it seemed like the training was going somewhere and the women's segment of the class was given time to work with bags. Maybe they've changed their structure since my experience, but this is why I left and won't be back. You get what you pay for!
