Alison J. says, "I can’t recommend Ascend and Defend Academy enough! I came in as a complete beginner, just looking to learn how to protect myself when I’m out with my 12-month-old. The environment was welcoming, and the training was broken down in a way that felt easy to understand and actually fun. I really appreciate how patient and encouraging the instruction was too. I’m very shy, but I had fun. Definitely a place where beginners like me can feel comfortable while still being challenged." Read more

Erika T. says, "I used to take group classes but I felt like 1x1 was going to be the best bet for me to get personalized training. As a woman it can be intimidating to get into a sport like this where it's all men.. I train with Peter who is super patient and motivating regardless of your experience level. The gym is in a great location and I like that it's very easy to reach the owner (Ian) if you need anything. Super old-school but charming boutique gym with a cool history behind it. " Read more

Your boxing questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.com.

How much are boxing classes?

What are the weight classes in boxing?

The lightest class is called Strawweight and is for people that weigh 105 to 107 pounds. The largest is Heavyweight and is for people over 200 pounds.

Are boxing classes worth it?

Boxing classes are worth it if you're looking for a good whole-body workout or want to learn self-defense. Boxing is easier to learn and inexpensive compared to many gym memberships or martial arts classes.

Boxing is not only a good cardio workout, it also works out the arms, legs, and core. This fighting style also releases tension in a safe environment while helping you reach fitness goals.

How many boxing classes should I attend per week?

Most people attend boxing classes 1 to 3 times per week, though this depends on your budget and schedule. For the best results, consider exercising at the gym or at home in between classes to build strength and endurance.

What should I wear to a boxing class?

Wear comfortable, lightweight clothing and shoes to a boxing class. Most people wear shorts and a T-shirt or tank top. Remember to bring a water bottle and small towel to hydrate and remove sweat during the workout.

  • Get 3+ free estimates to compare.
  • Read their reviews on Lessons and Google.
  • Choose a gym that is licensed and experienced.
  • Get a written estimate and schedule before the classes begin.
  • Follow a payment schedule instead of making large payments up front.

After asking questions and verifying credentials, hire the best boxing instructor in your area.

What questions should I ask boxing instructors?

When looking for local boxing classes, ask these questions:

  • How long have you been teaching boxing classes?
  • Are you licensed and insured?
  • How many students do you have?
  • Are you experienced teaching beginners?
  • Do you have any current openings?

Super knowledgeable, motivating, and patient. Every session is fun, challenging, and I’ve improved so much. Highly recommend!

I've been training with Vincent for a few years now, and it's always been a great experience. Vincent is a really effective teacher. He always knows how to explain or demonstrate techniques so that they make sense. And I appreciate the way that he manages to challenge me while building foundational skills.

I trained with Terry when he owned the place. I just started boxing again with the new owner, Ian, and it's great. The same exact feeling as before -- super welcoming gym, a legit place to learn how to box. None of that kickboxing stuff! Also I'm a girl, and I feel totally welcome here. No masculine aggro b.s. And it feels completely badass to learn how to *actually* box, the real way. And get some anger out on the bags! I highly recommend.

JC (Johnny) is honestly the best fitness trainer I have ever had and I have had trainers from gyms like ballys and 24hr fitness. There is no comparison Johnny kicks my ass as that is what I like, can't ask for a Better trainer. We also do boxing which I love just bottom line he kicks ass and I have lost some serious weight thanks to him. I have been training with him for a year now and don't plan on stopping, trainers like Johnny are hard to find.
