One hour. A pro coach on the pads with you. Gloves and wraps waiting at the door. You'll leave knowing how to throw a real jab — and whether this is your gym.
Watch for a text from us today with open class times. Just bring comfortable clothes — everything else is here.
Or call now — (475) 445-1188Nobody here is auditioning. Every round is scaled to whoever showed up. Three reasons people book that first class:
Good. Your first class is stance, guard and one punch — not a workout designed to break you in front of strangers.
Women-only classes on the schedule and a floor where nobody gets talked over or corrected by a stranger. Bring a friend.
Treadmills are boring, so you stop. Boxing gives you a skill to chase, which is why people who box actually keep turning up.
No initiation, no surprises. This is the entire class, start to finish.
A coach meets you at the door by name, wraps your hands and shows you the room. You will not be left to figure it out.
Fifteen minutes on stance, guard and the jab. Then real rounds on the bag — stopping to breathe is expected, not judged.
Five minutes with your coach on what you’re chasing. If we’re not the right gym for it, we’ll say so and point you somewhere better.
Several of our coaches have fought professionally. That matters less for the war stories than for what they catch in round one: the shoulder you drop, the foot out of line, the reason your wrist hurts. You learn correctly the first time instead of unlearning bad habits a year in.
No. We lend gloves and wrap your hands for you. If you stay past a few weeks a coach will point you at a pair worth buying — we don’t sell them at the desk.
Rounds run at your pace and stepping out to breathe is normal, not a failure. Plenty of members who now train four times a week were winded by the warm-up on day one.
No. Sparring is completely optional and never happens in a first class. Plenty of members train for years on bags and pads only.
It’s a real class with a real coach, not a tour. We talk options for about five minutes afterwards and “I’ll think about it” ends the conversation — nobody chases you.
We're at 115 Bruce Ave, Stratford, CT 06615 — minutes from Bridgeport, Trumbull and Milford, with members driving in from Orange, Fairfield, Westport and Norwalk.
Free class, free gloves, no card and no contract. The only thing it costs you is the hour.
