I don’t write many reviews for places and If I do it means something really good . Glove and Crown is a very very special place that is like a family and owned / run by a select group of individuals that are with out a doubt so incredibly talented and nice. When you walk in the doors you can just feel the specialness about the gym . Everything is top notch / high end and super clean and sanitary . They even have a water machine that is really tasty that I just discovered today . The professionalism and instruction is truly amazing and I am very very lucky to be a part of . I honestly wouldn’t change a thing. They offer all sorts of classes to suit your interests from boxing sparring , conditioning, Jiu Jitsu. Every one is really mellow and cool there and most importantly supportive to the newer students. So thank you .

Glove and Crown is the BEST gym I have ever trained at. I have gone to several gyms and have done several classes elsewhere, Glove and Crown is by far the most organized and best coached. I have been doing boxing and kick boxing with James for 3 years and he has been instrumental in my MMA growth and also my mental well being. Jo, Josh and Jack are always so welcoming when I come to my sessions with James and this gym and team make you feel like family from day one. I highly suggest joining as a member of Glove and Crown; you will learn, improve and gain confidence immediately upon entering the gym. Really cant thank James, Jo, Josh and Jack enough for how much they have helped me. BEST GYM PERIOD.

I joined Glove and Crown because I was seeking a challenging boxing fitness workout. I’ve remained consistent because every class is well-balanced, the perfect combination of strength, conditioning, and cardio, and is so so fun! I can honestly say that in just a few months, I’ve noticed a significant difference in my health and have definitely leveled up! But the BEST part of the gym is why I’ve been able to stay motivated, it’s because of the incredible sense of community that has been built up. All the coaches are absolutely amazing and supportive! They motivate and push you, but they also care about your progress and want to make sure you’re successful. Best fitness community that LA has to offer!

Glove and Crown Gym has quickly become my second home and one of my absolute favorite places. Upon arrival, I’m always greeted with big smiles and such positive energy from all the trainers and on surprise occasions, more often than not, a sweet golden retriever named Murphy. I’ve been boxing for almost two years now and in that time, I have had the absolute pleasure of being able to learn and grow in the sport thanks to my four favorite Brits, who when Box ‘N Burn announced its permanent closure and our community had the heaviest hearts, saved the day and decided to open their own gym. I knew that Glove and Crown would be an incredible gym because the four of them would be working together, but it has surpassed my expectations on every level. I have always been active and involved in sports, but I never really had a desire to try combat sports growing up. Since becoming a member at Glove and Crown Gym, it has become my latest obsession and it’s all thanks to the incredible trainers. They break down the different techniques very well, with extreme patience, and make it SO much fun! I can honestly say that I have never laughed and smiled so much while working out and the community environment they have created at this gym keeps making you want to come back for more every single day. I’m thrilled that the unlimited membership is truly unlimited and I have the ability to take and try all the classes I want. I can get an insane strength, conditioning, and cardio workout in during the Rounds (boxing fitness classes) in the mornings before work and come back for more technical training in the evening with the MMA, BJJ and Striking Fundamentals classes. No other gym in LA offers such a range of class options under one roof and that is why Glove and Crown Gym is the best of the best! If you’re already a seasoned boxer or martial artist or just starting out, this is the gym to train at, hands-down! The trainers make you feel confident and safe, motivate you to do things you never thought you could do and most importantly they always help you to celebrate your wins, even if it’s the smallest accomplishment in your eyes, they will make you feel like you’re absolutely unstoppable. So proud of you Josh, Jack, James and Jo! Thank you so much for your tireless efforts and for giving us Glove and Crown Gym! 🥊👑❤️

I love this place! Fantastic gym, variety of classes, and amazing coaches! It's not just a great workout, it's also a supportive and fun environment. Can't say enough about how much I look forward to classes. Glove and Crown Rounds classes are great mix of weights, endurance, and boxing. I leave feeling so much better. Coaches are so supportive and encouraging -- they are able to work with anyone at every level of experience and help you to achieve new goals. Happy to be part of this gem!
