Why not train at a traditional boxing gym?

Training at LA Fitness offers several unique benefits that traditional boxing gyms often don’t:

  • Lower Training Costs: Traditional boxing gyms or MMA facilities typically charge high fees for trainers to use their spaces. By training at LA Fitness, I can provide lower rates, making boxing more accessible.

  • Access to Amenities: Both LA Fitness locations have heavy bags for training, plus amenities like a sauna, weightlifting equipment, and a pool—enhancing your post-workout experience and recovery.

  • Trans/Queerphobia and Misogyny: Traditional boxing gyms can be hypermasculine spaces, sometimes fostering transphobia, queerphobia, and misogyny.

Is Boxing Really Self-Defense?

Yes, boxing can absolutely be a form of self-defense. While it’s often thought of as a sport, boxing builds essential self-defense skills like striking power, defensive reflexes, and the ability to stay calm under pressure. Learning how to throw effective punches, block, slip, and react quickly to an opponent’s moves can be highly effective if you need to protect yourself. Boxing teaches controlled movements, awareness, and the confidence to respond in real-world situations—skills that are critical in any self-defense scenario.

Cardio Boxing vs. Skill-Focused Boxing Instruction

Many people are familiar with cardio boxing classes designed to make you sweat, where the focus is primarily on burning calories, and less attention is given to form, technique, or skill development. My program is focused on building real boxing skills, enhancing punching power, striking precision, and accuracy through focused pad work drills. You’ll also learn advanced footwork, pivots, shifts, and practical defensive techniques that go beyond what’s possible on a heavy bag alone.
