Mission & Vision
Our goal is to impact youth & young adults and in turn have a positive & healthy impact on families in our community. We do this through physical fitness. We are a boxing gym so our programs start with an intro to boxing which teaches fitness, self discipline, respect, commitment, team building, and so much more. Plans for individuals change depending on what the individual/family goals/needs are.
Age Groups
We start at 10 & up with limited class days then young adult with more days. Sessions can have up to 20 in a class. We are in the process of moving to a bigger location so once this happens we can have more members in a class & additional sessions.
Enrollment
We have a rolling enrollment. Beginners classes on Tuesdays & Thursdays. Then regular session Monday – Friday for all ages 12 after the beginner level. Open gym on select Saturdays. We have strength & conditioning and special work outs on select days. We do have a member application that must be fill out, if under 18 it must be completed by a parent or guardian.
Membership Fee
$60 a month with a one time $20 registration fee.
If a member cannot afford to pay, we look for sponsorships or offer volunteer work here at the gym though coach assistance or helping out around the gym to assist with the membership dues. This is case by case.
We are always open to collaborate with other organizations in working towards the same goal on impacting our youth and community.
