From the reviews
Resilient Boxing in O’Fallon, MO is an incredible gym with an even more incredible leader. Coach Emil is a man of strong faith and character, and it shows in the way he leads and invests in the people around him.
I never thought I’d be boxing, but here I am—and I’m so glad my mom and sisters found Resilient Boxing! After just 3-4 classes, we’re hooked. Emil Hector is awesome—super helpful with proper form so we get the full workout and he keeps the energy high!
I have attended other boxing classes in the past, but was still nervous walking in because of the length if time it had been since my last class. I was very impressed with the warm & welcoming atmosphere created by Emil & his team.
Wow! What an amazing workout! High energy, great music, awesome people and very encouraging. Emil, the Owner/trainer is so kind and patient. He made sure I was doing the moves correctly without making me feel like I shouldn't be there. This place is definitely for all ages and fitness levels.
New to kickboxing? Start at Resilient Boxing
Resilient 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 Resilient 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.
