Boxing gym vs. private lessons
Same punches. One coach, your floor.
| Factor | Boxing gym class | In The Ring · private |
|---|---|---|
| Attention | One coach for a room of people. | One coach, one client. Every rep watched and corrected. |
| Schedule | Fixed class times. | Your slots — weekdays 6 a.m. to 8 p.m., Saturdays 8 to 2. |
| Location | Their gym. | Your apartment or building gym, anywhere in Hoboken. No travel fee. |
| Gear | Bring or rent gloves. | Gloves, wraps and mitts come with the coach. |
| Pace | The room's pace. | Your pace, beginner to experienced. |
| Sparring | Often part of the path. | Never. Fitness boxing only — your gloves on the coach's mitts. |
| Cost | Membership plus class packs. | $140 a session, or $105–$120 a session in a monthly package. |
What a session looks like
Forty-five minutes. Every round earned.
- 015–8 min
Warm-up & footwork
Shadowboxing, stance and movement drills. Your heart rate is up before the first punch lands.
- 0210–15 min
Technique
Stance, guard, then the jab, cross, hook and uppercut — one or two things fixed per session, not twenty.
- 0315–20 min
Pad work
Combinations on the mitts in timed rounds. This is where the skill and the cardio meet.
- 048–10 min
Conditioning rounds
Bodyweight power, core and boxing-specific intervals, adjusted to your level.
- 055 min
Cooldown & notes
Mobility, breathing and what we work on next. Every session is logged.
Who it's for
No experience required.
Complete beginners
Never thrown a punch? Good. Boxing lessons for beginners start with stance and the jab, and you'll be throwing proper combinations by session three.
Fat loss & conditioning
Boxing is interval cardio you'll actually look forward to. Pair it with strength days for the fastest change.
Stress & confidence
Hitting the pads after a day in the city does something a treadmill never will. Coordination, confidence and calm come as side effects.
Athletes & lifters
Add footwork, hand speed and an engine to a strength base. Fits alongside any program you're already running.

Space needed: about eight by eight feet of clear floor — a railroad flat's living room with the coffee table moved works; a building gym's open stretching area works better. Boxing is also offered in Jersey City, and it's one of the three disciplines in every personal training program in Hoboken.

Most clients don't box every session. A typical week mixes boxing with strength and conditioning under one plan and one price — the package buys sessions, and we decide together what each one is.
A partner or spouse from the same household can join any session for $50 — pad work in pairs is a good way to start.

Boxing questions
Quick answers
Q.Is this real boxing or fitness boxing?
Real technique — stance, footwork, the four punches, defense — taught for fitness. You'll learn to box properly; you won't be hit.
Q.Will I spar?
No. There's no sparring and no ring. The only contact is your gloves on the coach's mitts.
Q.Do I need my own gloves?
No. We bring gloves, wraps and mitts to every session. If you fall in love with it, we'll recommend a pair of your own.
Q.My Hoboken apartment is small. Is there room?
Almost always. About eight by eight feet of clear floor is enough — a living room with the coffee table moved. Building gyms with an open stretching area are ideal.
Q.How fast will I learn?
Stance and a clean jab in session one, the four punches by session three, and flowing combinations on the pads soon after. The pace is yours.
Q.Can I combine boxing with strength training?
Yes — that's the whole idea. Most weeks rotate strength, conditioning and boxing under one plan. See the programs.
