I had a desk job, was feeling out of shape, and gained 20 pounds in 2 years, and I had some serious goals in mind.
We did 1 year at a small cardio boxing place, but it was boring and the same routine, so we stopped going.
We wanted and expected the real technique experience with real fighters at South Beach Boxing, and that is exactly what we got. It’s a serious workout.
I’m getting great full-body workouts and building endurance, and that is empowering me, especially being a woman learning how to fight. I feel I can now defend myself. It keeps me sharp mentally and physically. My body and mind have changed.
It’s been a great experience, and I recommend it to everyone. I tell them not to be intimidated.
Everyone is nice, from the staff to the instructors and the members. No disappointments at all.
I feel healthier all around. It’s not just a workout; it’s become a hobby for us. I sleep a lot better too.
It only took a month for my body and mind to start feeling the benefits. You get in here, do an hour, and it flies by. – Amy
I was okay physically, watched what I was eating, and did a day of exercise here and there, but I was overindulging on food and drinks and not disciplined at all.
When I came, I didn’t feel intimidated; everyone was welcoming. I thought I knew what I was doing until I came here. They have sharpened my technique and form, and I learned discipline with my workouts and indulging in things that aren’t good for me. I know I will pay for it if I don’t take care of my body when I’m away from the gym because as soon as I start the class, I feel it.
Where we were training before, they weren’t focused on us. They were focused on their cell phones and weren’t taking us seriously. Here, the whole staff stays on us all the time and really cares about what they do, and it rubs off on me because now I care.
There’s no ego here, and you feel comfortable as soon as you walk in, feeling welcomed. It attracts people with a positive attitude. Not intimidating at all.
They push me to my limits. I’ve noticed a lot of weight loss, my core muscles are tighter, especially from taking the Muay Thai classes, and my posture and balance are different. I’m confident, I don’t feel as vulnerable, and I am more aware of my surroundings at all times.
Because I’m in an office, it helps me explore a different part of my brain.
I’m even tapping into the spirit of my youth and the things I loved and felt, being able to move my body that way again. South Beach Boxing makes me a happy man. – Quentin
It’s been 3 months and we come together almost every night, and it’s great to have the other person be encouraging when one of us is being lazy. It’s usually him… no, it’s usually her. – Amy & Quentin
