I recently tried out Hooked Boxing by taking their free class, and unfortunately, I was disappointed. While the facility itself is clean and has a nice atmosphere, I was hoping for authentic boxing training, and this just wasn’t it. As someone with a boxing background and a fight record, I noticed right away that the fundamentals were off—especially the bag work. There were no real boxers or experienced trainers running the class, and shockingly, there wasn’t even any hand wrapping involved, which is a basic safety and training standard in boxing. If you’re looking for a cardio-style workout that loosely resembles boxing, this might be fine for you. But if you’re serious about learning proper technique or training like a real boxer, this isn’t the place. I didn’t return after the free class.
Dropped in for a workout here to try something new! The coach was very accommodating for somebody who never tried boxing before and went over basic fundamentals with me. The space is relatively small, but did not feel cramped for the class size. The workout itself was a mix of boxing and typical HIIT. There could have been a bit more instruction on the timing / transitions, but overall I enjoyed it!

Jose, Derek, Ian, and Tim are all awesome trainers and great guys in general. The class is a nice mix of boxing and high-intensity interval training. No boxing experience is needed, they will show you the ropes. You get back what you put in! The first class is free. So, what are you waiting for? Go give them a try now!
SUCH a great workout and amazing coaches! This was my first boxing class and I've never felt more comfortable walking into a new gym as I did here. The coaches were extremely knowledgeable and made this experience a lot of fun. I can't wait to go back!
