“A Life-Changing Gym Experience” Mamba Boxing Club has completely changed my life—physically and mentally. The facility is always spotless, the vibe is motivating, and the staff is second to none. From day one, I felt like I was part of a family. My training has improved more than I ever expected, and I’ve never felt stronger or more focused. Jordan, the owner, truly cares about everyone who walks through those doors. His energy, guidance, and passion are contagious. Joining this gym and becoming part of the community was one of the best decisions I’ve made.

Best boxing gym in Connecticut for sure, maybe tri state county as well. Jordan the owner gave me the best lesson of my life and I can’t wait to go back. The equipment is also very new, clean, and well arranged. The ring was also very nice and I felt like a pro in it.

My son who is 6 turning 7 recently joined Mamba Boxing Club and i am so happy with the sessions. Jourdan, the owner got us started with no hassles, he has a fantastic and clean gym, the coaches/trainers do well with working 1:1 with the member. Everyone in the gym is very friendly, respectful, and dedicated to this! I wish I started my son earlier! My son absolutely love this gym, it feels like family! After every session always asks when the next one is. Shout out to our coach, Kan! He’s great with kids! 110% recommend.

Jourdan was very welcoming, as was the rest of the team. From the moment I signed up, I felt that I belonged. Some of that old-school boxing flavor on the walls without the smell of dirty canvas. Top of the line equipment and good boxing technique, without any gimmick. Out of the dozens gyms I’ve trained at, I can say this one is at the top. Truly more than a gym, this club carries the essence of boxing.
