Great workout with a welcoming environment! I have taken boxing classes in the past and none of them took the time to teach the correct form and technique. Emil was a great teacher and took his time to explain the form and why. I look forward to going back and taking my 11 year old son with me.

Ok. So I absolutely love kickboxing as a workout. Nothing else makes me literally weak in the knees quite like kickboxing. Years (and I mean years) ago I did Title Boxing. Then those started to close up. Then went to Kickhouse...but the one by work closed. I'm noticing a trend with these chains. I'd prefer to support local. Now...I've been out of kickboxing for a while. Life happens. But I'm looking for a local gym, with great values, and no macho, ego filled rooms. Cause I sweat like a horse and give zero cares about my looks in my perimenopause stage of life. Today, I tried Resilient Boxing. Emil remembered me from my MUCH younger Title days (he used to be an instructor there). He was super nice as he greeted myself and other newcomers. He started with the basics for everyone. Then we had fun with the bags. I so needed this workout! But more than that, I needed a place I felt i could call home and not just be a number. Emil owns the gym! He was the instructor! He made sure we were in proper form as we punched and kicked. And...bonus...he has an impact tracking system to show the number of punches! Badass!! Membership?? Where do I sign?!

I never thought I’d be boxing, but here I am—and I’m so glad my mom and sisters found Resilient Boxing! After just 3-4 classes, we’re hooked. Emil Hector is awesome—super helpful with proper form so we get the full workout and he keeps the energy high! The faith-rooted atmosphere and focus on pushing yourself to be your best make it special. We love going together—fun, energizing, and uplifting! Everyone in the classes has been super welcoming and fun to be around! I would highly recommend to anyone:)

What a great experience for all ages. I was looking for something my 9 year old son and I could do together and it was really hard finding somewhere that would work with us both. This gym definitely caters to all young and old. Very friendly staff in a clean atmosphere. Positive attitudes, exceptional support and great music!!
