I have been a member since January 2018. It has been such an amazing experience and I have learned so much. All the coaches and the front desk staff have been amazing! They have class for everyone, from level 1 at the bag to sparring. Don’t miss the chance to workout while learning a new skill! Priceless!

I absolutely love the team at Urban Boxing. From day one, Dan made me feel comfortable with being in a serious gym for the first time. My first class was really hard but my instructor, Antoine, really pushed me and helped me through it. Everyone in the class was very supportive and overall cool to workout with. Antoine's classes were some of my favorite. I also took kickboxing with Jeff and Mike which I highly recommend if you want to do more leg work and do some more laughing through the pain.

A few of our agents are members of this gym and we can't say enough about how great the training and staff is! Truly a great workout for all levels!
We love how the trainers push us to be the best and get the most out of our workouts but not overly aggressive! Highly recommend this gym to anyone in the area looking for a great environment to get a workout in

What a gem of a place. Professionally run and maintained, excellent coaches and yet they retain a personalized touch and connect with each student. My teenage son is taking boxing lessons and they quickly focused on understanding him and developing trust, then gave him a perfect mixture of training for his physical and mental conditioning. They focus as much on the mind as the body. I’m a supremely picky dad, and I’m sold on these guys. Good people.

I flippin' love this place! Best workout ever--my metric is that the time goes so fast! At 'normal' gyms I'm always watching the clock but not here. Great community of classmates, staff, and trainers. I love Antoine D and Mike E-- although I do curse them the next day when I'm all sore! :) Can't recommend enough.

All around fantastic studio, wish I could give them 10 stars. The environment is super welcoming, not intimidating, and like everyone says, it's a second home. Truly going to be some of the people I miss most when I move!
Dan, Josh, and the rest of the front staff are always totally lovely and accommodating and make every single person who comes in feel welcome and pumped up. We live for the fist bumps.
The coaches are all phenomenal; they're always around to help correct technique or encourage you to work just a little bit harder, but they're also just all-around lovely humans who truly care

Best gym in the area. If you're looking to learn something new, build on what you know, or just get in killer shape, this is the place to do it. Tons of classes for any schedule. Antoine, Tom, and the rest of the coaches are highly committed, accessible, and hold you accountable which you don't get most places. Great community too. If you're looking for a boxing gym, Urban Boxing Arlington is the spot.

I've seen more than one person's share of bad boxing gyms. Places where trainers constantly hit on memebers...some overcrowd the space to the point most bags are being shared by 3 people. Urban Boxing definitely isn't either. The members, trainers, and staff are all super friendly. The gym is always clean...well as clean as a boxing gym can be in while people are getting in a serious workout. To be honest if I hadn't have moved, I'd still be a member. There's just one word of caution...watch out for Mike's BBQ ribs.

I usually go to Urban Boxing DC because it is the nearest for me. Last Friday afternoon I went to Urban Boxing Arlington for the first time because I wanted to make up for the fact that I missed Mike's class on Thursday night due to the thunderstorm and my gloomy mood.
I initially planned to go to the boxing class taught by Antoine at 4:30 pm because it was early and I could go back before getting hungry. I went there and discovered the schedule was changed(it is updated now!), no regular boxing class at 4:30pm, only a sparring class.
I sat and wait. Soon a young man sat across me, I didn

From the outside looking in the class appears to be very intimidating. This was my first ever kickboxing class and I can say that it was awesome and intimidating; however, I am totally hooked! The front desk staff was extremely helpful. The coach was patient and took time to explain the various moves. He also was super enthusiastic and encouraging throughout the class. The workout was intense! The gym is clean and well maintained!!!

Never felt more welcome dropping in somewhere. I stopped by a couple of weeks ago while I was on a work trip. Everyone I met, at both this location and the DC location, was so kind and welcoming. Mike Easton is a gem and a reason to visit alone!
The classes pushed me, and I learned some new skills I can take back to my home gym in Houston. Unlike some other gyms, they keep their equipment as clean as can be expected (especially for how many ppl use and sweat on this stuff).
Thanks y'all - I had a blast!

Urban Boxing is fantastic! I usually go to the Georgetown location, however, when possible, I make it out here to the Arlington gym. This one is a bit cleaner and way less crowded than the Georgetown location. I also love how close this gym is to the metro - very convenient! Urban Boxing has great classes with a huge variety. The coaches push you to your limits and keep it fun. Would definitely recommend!

I love it here, especially weekdays at noon!
I've never been a cardio bunny, though getting through it here has become infinitely easier. Instead of being a mindless hamster, I get to focus on technique and form. I get to actually learn something AND leave beet red/dripping sweat every time.
Bonus points for being a mental outlet. After losing both grandparents and moving cross country, sometimes I just really need to punch the $h!+ out of a bag.
If you need to get your mind and body right and want to learn how to properly box, GO!

I have been going to Urban Boxing for about 8 months and have loved every minute of it. The classes are challenging and fun. I have mostly taken Antoine, Jeff and Loic's classes. They know how to motivate you and direct you. I specially appreciate the focus on technique and that they push you to be better. I take yoga classes with Saba on the weekends too. Its an excellent way to stretch deeply and work on problem areas.
I highly recommend Urban Boxing! Its a great addition to the community.

I would highly recommend that you try this workout. I went to the free class and it was amazing. Everyone who works here is professional and friendly. It's a huge place and very clean and well-organized.
Boxing (all levels) was probably the best workout I've ever had. Great cardio and muscle work - I was sore for days after. Not just my arms - everywhere. It was great.
Unfortunately because of injuries it's not something I can personally do 3x a week or more, but if you can, you should!! I really think that their membership is worth it if you are committed to going. It's

This place is great. The workout is amazing - good cardio and muscle work. The coaches are all very nice and competent. I usually take Nate's class at noon - he is quite talented and focuses on technique, which I enjoy.
They keep everything clean and neat. The front desk staff is extremely polite and professional.
My only minor complaint is that their water machine produces warm water - would be nice to have some cold water to drink during the intense workout :-). I hope they'll fix it at some point. Otherwise, bring your own cold water :-)

This is a great workout for a beginner looking to gain proper punching techniques, to someone like myself who has taken boxing classes in the past. The coaches here really care about you having proper form and doing things right from the start!
It may seem like an easy workout at first but it is quite challenging! Go check them out!

Rule 2 of Urban Boxing Arlington: talk about Urban Boxing Arlington (seriously, once you go, you'll want to tell your friends)
Rule 3: Wipe down your bags after your workout (you will sweat a TON--it's a great workout)
Rule 4: No shoes on the mats (the location and equipment are new and clean, everything is high-quality)
Rule 5: Always scan your tag when you arrive (whoever is at the desk is always ready to help out and answer any questions; it's not in the least intimidating--and newbies are always welcome)

Great workout and a positive atmosphere! The coaches get you pumped and are engaging during the class, making these hour-long workouts more enjoyable. They teach you proper technique and form to maximize your workout and avoid injury. Each coach brings their own perspective and unique teaching to their class, making each experience different even if you are boxing every time!
This gym is relatively new; the bathroom, mats, and the general facility is super clean and well kept! There are a variety of classes you can choose from, including boxing, kickboxing, jiu-jitsu, may thai, and yoga. There
