I personally do not appreciate or respect Melissa drywater simply because I paid $450 in advance for 24 week program for my son.Unfortunately , because of medical reasons , he was only able to attend three solid weeks. I have asked for a partial refrain of three hundred and fifteen dollars , which melissa drywater has refused block me block my calls , remove my account off of their web page as a supporter and has made no further contact. She is a scam. After going to the program, my son refuses to go back based on her playing favoritism to her son, Michael, and not instructing correctly based upon the conditions for my son, he verbalized, and may know what he needed and it was ignored.. i am in the process of reporting her to licensing board of boxing.
I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the treatment and experience of my nephew during his time at your program. From the very beginning, his medical condition was not properly acknowledged or respected, which caused significant distress for both him and our family. During his first week, he would come home and share details about his day that raised serious concerns about fairness and care. Additionally, we observed clear favoritism toward Melissa Drywater’s son, Michael, which created an environment that felt inequitable and unprofessional. Before enrollment, Melissa assured us that a refund would be possible if needed. However, the only documentation provided at the start was a single invoice—no guidelines, policies, or clear expectations were shared. The only policy we eventually received was emailed from Melissa’s iPhone after we requested a refund, which appeared to have been created hastily. Based on these experiences, I cannot recommend this program to other families.
I’ve boxed with Melissa for four years and she the best coach
