I highly recommend this gym for anyone looking to try out boxing and get a great workout! The owners, Michelle and Alex, are extremely helpful in teaching you every step of the way, from wrapping your hands to learning the combos, and creating a welcoming/empowering environment. I felt confident and had fun! Their classes are well structured and the private sessions are amazing! You get a great workout and learn something new every time!

Brandon is by far the best boxing trainer in Tampa! Brandon is extremely knowledgeable and has a lot of patience to teach the sweet science of boxing. The gym itself is clean and inviting! Would HIGHLY recommend this gym! No matter where in your boxing journey you’re at, this is the place to learn!

I've been anticipating the opening of this gym ever since I saw it was coming soon. An ACTUAL BOXING GYM!!! My son has wanted to be a boxer ever since he could talk and now, in south Tampa, it's actually happening. I took him for his very first class Saturday and it was absolutely awesome!! The owners/coaches are absolutely amazing. I can't wait for my son to start this journey and step into his passion. Thank you both again. This is exactly what we've been looking for and waiting on.

10/10 for sure! From the moment I walked in the environment was welcoming and inclusive. I didn't feel intimidated at all (which normally I do, especially when trying something new and honestly out of my comfort zone) nothing but great vibes, I'm learning so much, and having a blast doing it. Overall, I highly recommend this gym to any parents looking to introduce their kids to the world of boxing in a fun and supportive environment too. It's been an absolute game-changer for me and my child who's only 7, she sees me and wants to partake too, and we just can't wait to continue our journey at M.A.B.C!

The woman owner of this establishment is incredibly rude and hostile, and screams at people about trespassing before she even thinks to politely ask somebody to move their car after being at her establishment for less than five minutes. She could stand to use a lesson on compassion and maybe some anger management. Which is funny enough since it’s a boxing place.
