How do memberships work?

We offer flexible membership options based on how often you want to train on a monthly basis. All memberships are true month-to-month, no auto-renewal or charges, and no contract or long term commitment. Memberships are due the 1st of every month and you are billed on your first check-in at the gym. No confusion, no surprises, everything transparent. 

Do I need to book classes in advance?

Members do not need to book to attend class. Just come on in and check-in at the desk for class. Anyone looking to participate in their First Free Class MUST book online.

What should I bring to class?

Bring comfortable athletic clothing, water, and boxing gloves if you have them. Hand wraps are also recommended for boxing sessions.

Is boxing good for fitness and confidence?

Yes. Boxing improves strength, endurance, coordination, and confidence. It’s also a great way to relieve stress and stay consistent with your fitness goals.

What if I miss a class?

Based on your membership, if you miss a class for your month sessions can rollover into the following month so you can make it up. Rollover class credits expire after one month from the rollover. 

Can I try a class before joining?

Yes, we offer a free trial class so you can experience the gym, meet the coaches, and see if it’s the right fit for you before committing to a membership. You must schedule your first free class in advance. You must also participate in our Prep session prior to your first class so you can get a one-on-one crash course with one of our coaches so you can jump into class with confidence. 

Are the coaches experienced?

All of our coaches are USA Boxing certified. All of our coaches have extensive years of experience in training and competition in combat sports.

Our head coach is a Bronze level USA Boxing coach as well as having previous certifications as a CSCS (Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist) serving athletes and amateur boxers all over Fairfield County.

Will I spar right away?

No. Sparring is optional and only introduced when you are ready. Beginners focus on fundamentals like stance, movement, and combinations first. Sparring will always take place with at least one coach supervising at all times. 

Is the gym beginner-friendly and safe?

Yes. Our environment is supportive and structured to help beginners feel comfortable while still challenging more advanced members.
