From the reviews
Very reasonably priced and friendly environment for boxing, kickboxing, and martial arts. Great for all levels of activity and I often see families working out together. Try their free trial day on Saturdays! I love supporting this small local business!
This is an amazing local gym with a great sense of community. You will not only find boxing, but kickboxing, self defense, kenpo karate, strength training and other amazing classes throughout the week. All skill levels welcome as you go at your own pace.
We had our first class just yesterday with my fiancé and it was great! The place is great, small, affordable and they’ll kick your butt with the workout. We got trained on how to wrap our hands and got fitted for gloves. They showed us the basic moves for boxing and we were then put in a class!
Hello, I have been coming to this gym for the last 20 years- I love it & I would not go anywhere else, it is like family at DG Boxing - everyone is very dedicated and motivated which really boost you toward achieving your goals - for each personal level of skill gains excellent results.
New to kickboxing? Start at Downers Grove Boxing & Martial Arts, LLC.
Downers Grove Boxing & Martial Arts, LLC. comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners class is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or coordinated to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale every drill to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable gyms build the basics (stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads and bags) first, and any contact eases in gradually under a coach's control. Third, all fitness levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first kickboxing class at Downers Grove Boxing & Martial Arts, LLC.
Nervous about walking into a kickboxing gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics — stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads or a heavy bag — not hard sparring. Go at your own pace and rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: comfortable athletic clothes you can move and sweat in, and supportive trainers. What to bring: water, and hand wraps and gloves if you have them — many gyms lend loaner gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves and wraps (and shin guards once you start sparring). Sparring is optional and eases in gradually, once your basics are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
