From the reviews
Pepper has become a staple workout in my routine. I love BoxCamp with Mary in the early mornings and a good Saturday class with the girl friends. The environment is always so energetic but also allows me to really dial in and push myself. 10/10 would recommend stepping out of your comfort zone and giving it a try!
I took Shai’s class yesterday at Pepper Boxing Buckhead and it was my first time at the Buckhead location. The studio was great — clean, welcoming, and had an awesome energy. Shai is one of my favorite instructors and I would honestly take her class at any location.
I have been going to Pepper boxing for around three months and it’s been a really great experience! Definitely pushes me out of my comfort zone and I always leave class feeling so accomplished. All the instructors are great, especially Chase and Sarah. They are also very affordable!!
I LOVE Pepper Boxing! It got me back into fitness after years of inactivity. It’s so fun. I love the classes with Nikki and Sarah. The classes are challenging, but fun. The trainers motivate you. I’ve been going for almost 2 months now and will keep going.
New to kickboxing? Start at Pepper Boxing
Pepper Boxing 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 Pepper Boxing
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.
