this is my first experience in a boxing gym! But it is more than a boxing gym its a real dojo. Rene is experienced in jiujitsu,kickboxing,and a 5th degree black belt in karate. I am a white collared type of person but love the blue collar type of workout. If your looking for a meat market this isnt it! If your looking for the rocky mma boxing and karate fighter this is your place. I love it and will come back!!!!!
