The classes they run
“I trained back then alongside Leo Santa Cruz he was just a kid my age, we were both about 16—training with a coach nicknamed Yuka, a great trainer.”
“Also it’s great to break out from the ordinary gym routine and keep it interesting with a boxing or Muay Thai session, I feel sharper after a session”

From the reviews
Great gym and amazing workout! Also it’s great to break out from the ordinary gym routine and keep it interesting with a boxing or Muay Thai session, I feel sharper after a session
Honestly, seeing the comments, back in 2002 I trained at the L.A. Boxing Gym, and I know for a fact they really make champions there. I trained back then alongside Leo Santa Cruz he was just a kid my age, we were both about 16—training with a coach nicknamed Yuka, a great trainer. They definitely build champions there.
LA Boxing is pretty phenomenal. Most places only focus on giving you a workout. But LA boxing also teaches you how to fight. I’m amazed at how much I’ve learned in 4 short months. Shout out to coach Lee and the Muay Thai trainers for getting me straight.
Best Boxing Gym in all LA. The same Coach and trainers that train the world champions and pros train the kids and every one else . The staff is also great and always helpful. If you want to learn how to Box this is the perfect place no matter what age.
New to kickboxing? Start at LA Boxing Gym
LA Boxing Gym comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. 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 LA Boxing Gym
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.
