Services
High intensity class with music, movement, and motivation. During a continuous heavy bag routine, instructors mix conditioning exercises (interval training) to build lung capacity and develop breathing patterns, as well as maintain an increased heart rate to promote calorie burn. Non-contact partner drills are occasionally employed to enable head and body movement, teaching striking and avoiding punches.

My son has been training here at Pride Boxing and Fitness for only a couple of months now, but I feel that I've experienced enough about this facility to leave a valid review. I have had nothing but a positive experience thus far. The contagiously positive and upbeat atmosphere is what I've been the most surprised, as well as impressed with. Not only does the head coach and owner, Coach Kenny, maintain this positive attitude himself, but it's obvious to me that this is also a distinct component of the culture of this gym. Each day I witness genuine comradery between the fighters training here.
