you will not get lost amongst the crowd here-the staff at LA Boxing are incredibly friendly, knowledgable, and welcoming. the gym itself is clean and well maintained. my only beef is that it's 20 miles from my home!

Pros: friendly staff. clean, well maintained facilities

When I first went in I was greeted by the great staff and quickly accepted by the other members of the gym. Everyone in the gym knows their place and there isn't any overly cocky discouraging people. The classes are great for cardio, fat burning, and training to get to the next level in your fight game. It's a real close knit family with all of the fighters and the staff is amazing. Since starting to train at the gym 4 months ago I've lost between 20 and 30 pounds and have dropped clothes sizes as well. I feel great and they put me to work. I also come in and train by myself and ask for assitance on new moves and such when needed. One of the staff members even hooked me up with a free meal plan and workout circuit. LA Boxing overall is one of the best gym's I've worked out at and now I no longer need all the other gym memberships because with LA Boxing I get it all.

Pros: Staff equipment, hours, classes, location, other gym members

At La Boxing you are more then just a membership walking in the door to pay your gyms light bill. You feel as if you are part of the gym itself...The Owners and the staff are"OUTSTANDING" they make you feel comfortable about workng out plus there are a lot of other women who go there. All the staff are always willing to help with some extra tips, wraping your hands...put it this way, they take the extra time with "you" to make sure you reach your goals and they want to get to know you as a person. Everyone is so upbeat and positive. I Love coming here.. I come 4 to 5 times a week and still want more. The classes are hard but so worth it. The Trainers are again"OUTSTANDING" You leave knowing you just kicked@$$ and with time you have the body and health to show it. La Boxing has changed my mind about what is healthy. I was trying so hard to lose weight I stopped eatting right. I was having as litle as 300 cal. a day BUT NOT ANYMORE now I eat good all day and still lose weight!! In all if you are looking for a gym that gives you a good work out in a fun friendly positive setting then La Boxing is the only place in Austin that can give that to you.

I have been going to different gyms around Austin for years. When I look around I see people I have seen for years, and their bodies don't change at all. I think it is probably a combination of diet and not enough resistance training. They are basically in a rut. I tend to balance my workouts and stay in shape, but lately had been in a "going through the motions" rut. So, I decided to check LA Boxing. What I noticed immediatelty was the warm, friendly atmosphere of the owners and staff. They have been extremely helpful with encouraging pointers that have improved my novice skills tremendously. I have to say that I was really bored with 24 hr fitness. Still go there some, but it just seems lifeless in comparrison. Everyone seems to be going through the motions. Where at LA Boxing it is very much alive with positive energy. And, I lost 10 pounds in the first 2 months by training three times a week. Most people would have looked at me and thought I was in shape. Now, in short order, I am in great shape. And I am 50 years old!

I have been attending LA Boxing for about 13 months. I enjoy the variety of class times and instructors. As a female, I love the smaller classes and the amount of females in the kickboxing classes. The workouts are intense and work on all areas of your body. After the hour class, you feel like you have really accomplished a great workout!

Pros: Great Location!

I am a software developer for a local company and I normally don't get a lot of exercise. I need to loose a ton of weight and in the 5 months I have been going to LA Boxing I have already lost about 15 pounds. As a new father I don't have a ton of time to go to a gym every other day but the cardio kickboxing class has been amazing! I have a long way to go but this is the longest I have stuck with anything. They have so many different classes and different things to do that it is easy to go back for more every week. The staff is great and the classes are small and fun. Don't hesitate to ask any employee or instructor for any tips or info. They are more than willing to help with different skill levels which is something I was fearful of before I joined. I have learned a ton and best of all am slowly loosing weight :)

Pros: Staff and instructors are great. Number of different classes help keep work outs fresh.

Cons: Since it is located next to a bar parking can be crazy on game nights.

i have tried several gyms in the last couple years, and this is the place for me. i am normally nervous going into gyms that are over filled by egotistical men looking for a meat market, but when i came into the gym my first night i was shocked by all the other women in the gym, and if that wasn't enough the staff is great,i didnt even take the free class that was offered i just signed up and ladies i'll tell you that the general manager is great eye candy . so if you're looking for a place to really get in shape and have something nice to look at check out la boxing.

WOW! I have never felt so great! I have been attending the cardio boxing and cardio kickboxing classes for approximatley 6 months and my whole body has changed. The staff and trainers are so friendly, they are always willing to stop and show me something new or make sure I am doing everything right. If you want something new or it's something you always wanted to try . . . The Wait Is Over. You will love this!

Pros: The Staff; The Equipment; The Smiles
