If I could give 0 stars I would. I have never been treated with such poor customer service as when I encountered Rick, the owner of Carr Boxing. I had signed my teenage son up for self defense/fitness classes because he wanted to get in shape in a fun way. Rick suggested I sign him up for the next level since he was certain that once my son started with the program he would eventually want to spar and compete so why not save money and sign up now. I assured him that would not be the issue and after going round and round with him trying to tell me I’d be sorry in the end when I’d be out more money I reluctantly still signed him up for what I originally came in for. A few days later at his pediatrician appointment my son mentioned to her that he was starting the program. I explained it and told the story of my encounter to both her and my son. She was very adamant that my son should not be sparring due to his several concussions he has had in the past. Since I signed a contract with the place Rick would not return the $230 dollars I zelled to him. He said “a contract is a contract.” This may be true but due to the given circumstances and even having my son’s doctor write a letter to him explaining why he can’t be in that situation I was still denied the $230 even though my son never started. It’s very disheartening that this business treats customers like this. I’m a former business owner and I couldn’t fathom treating someone with the disrespect I had encountered.
Coaches are good, and there's always people who will train with you. However, the classes include both adults and children. This would be fine if everyone was dedicated to improving their skill set, but they're not. You'll be in the same room with passionate athletes and some kids that were dumped in the class so their parents could have an hour of peace.
Very nice place for boxers very knowledgeable in the art of boxing as well highly recommend
