A. No experience is needed! We will walk you through the process, from wrapping your hands to throwing your first punch.
Q. What is the age limit for classes?
A. All classes are age 14 and above. If you have a child younger than 14 years old who would like to learn, we offer private lessons for ages 8 and up. Our Kid’s Beginning Boxing class is for ages 8-13.
Q. How early do I need to show up for my first class?
A. You will need to show up at least 15 minutes before your first class. This will give us time to help you get your hands wrapped and show you the ropes. If you show up later than 15 minutes in advance, we may not be able to get you started that day.
Q. Do I need to bring my own gloves?
A. If you have your own gloves and hand wraps you can bring them along. If not, don’t worry, we have some you can borrow for the first class. However, we don’t loan out equipment for more than one class.
Q. If I want to purchase equipment, do you sell it at the gym?
A. Yes. We sell boxing gloves and hand wraps at the gym.
Q. What else should I bring to class?
A. You can bring a water bottle if you want, comfortable workout clothes and CLEAN athletic shoes.
Q. I wore my athletic shoes to work in my garden/ go hiking/ slog through the mud/ etc. Can I wear them to class?
A. Absolutely NO. You must have CLEAN athletic shoes to wear in the gym. We recommend clients have a dedicated pair of workout shoes that they do not wear outside. If you come in with muddy shoes, you will be turned away.
Q. I forgot my workout shoes/ clothes. Can I work out in my hiking boots/ street shoes/ jeans/ sweater etc?
A. No. You MUST wear appropriate workout clothes and shoes to the gym to participate in classes. Shirts and shoes are also required at all times (as well as pants but we hope that would go without saying).
Q. What if I sign up for a class and I can’t make it?
A. Please cancel at least two hours in advance so someone else can take your spot. Space is limited.
Q. I’m not feeling great but I want to come in and “sweat it out.” What do you think?
A. HELL NO. STAY HOME IF YOU DON’T FEEL WELL.
Q. I bought a 5 class punch card but I haven’t used my 5 classes in the allotted 60 day time period. Can I just carry them over and use them later? I also signed up for a class but no showed without cancelling… that doesn’t count as one of my 5 classes right?
A. If you purchased a punch card to attend classes, they are good for 60 days from the date of purchase. If you don’t use them in 60 days, any remaining classes will be lost. If you no show without cancelling, it will be counted as one of your 5 classes. We do not offer a pay by class option. We are not able to extend punch cards due to illness, injury, scheduling conflicts, vacation plans, etc.

A. Yes, we offer private lessons for ages 8 and up. If you are interested in pricing and scheduling for private lessons, please send us an email for more information.
