My name is Marco and I share a lot of memories there I always used to go with my dad to go work out and learn how to box I’m pretty sure nobody remembers me but Gabriel is a great mentor I really respect him and the staff there and I hope to swing by and see how things have evolved and get back on track after 3 years

I used to come here and I remember they trained me for the first week and then after that no coach would approach me. Idk if it was personal but who cares now. The speed bags would also tear and be unusable but the replacement wouldn't come in for weeks at times. I'm spending $25 for this?? I'm going somewhere with coaches who have an actual passion to teach new members.
