From the reviews
Fantastic Gym! Rico is quite possibly one of the kindest and most humble gym owners I have had a chance to meet. Stellar human being. The coaches are top notch. Some of them are quite young, so you wouldn't expect the level of training you get, but they are on point. The work outs are always challenging.
Rather you're looking to achieve a lean boxing physique or looking to actually learn how to fight, no one knows how to utilize the art of boxing better than Rico. His training sessions achieve insane amounts of benefits!
This coach is amazing, knowledgeable and very energetic. Not only does he provide kids with boxing skills he makes it fun and builds their confidence. Highly recommended..
Awesome! I paid for the $20 drop in just to see how it was. The 1 hour adult lesson was fun and cardio intensive and they teach me the basics before I started.
Your first kickboxing class at Rico's Fitness and 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.
