I started coming here back in November and I didn’t know what to expect but I can proudly say that joining this gym was one of the best decisions I made in my life. The coaches here could either be your friend or your mentor the choice is yours because there are no classes but they are always watching you and critiquing your technique and how you could improve—You might ask then why should you join? Because this isn’t just a regular boxing gym it’s really just a Big Family and the discipline that you would learn here will stay with you for the rest of your life. This gym is a hidden gem and I would recommend everyone to train here for at least just one month and see the discipline you learn! Shout to Coach Christian, Naeebel, Manny, Raul, Shaeed, and head Coach Al for making the gym a friendly atmosphere for everybody.

I love this place. I’m a 20 year educator. I’ve been a gym teacher and I am currently a dean in a middle school. I also coach basketball and I have been a life long athlete. I first met Coach Al Alvir when he partnered with my school to start a boxing program for our at risk student. Once seeing his approach and expertise I felt I had to start training at his gym. I began not very knowledgeable about boxing but my skills have grown immeasurably since joining Eastern Queens Boxing Club. The entire team is great and the environment is top notch.

From my first day walking into the gym to my last i’ve enjoyed every moment of being apart of EQBC. I felt welcomed as it damn near became my second home. The vibe makes you want to train harder and show up everyday. No egos, everyone helps out and supports one another. You come to work and you will see results. Hard to find a genuine gym after this one
