I’ve been here at Robs for 3+ years. He’s a great dude and has an amazing gym. If you want to learn fundamentals of boxing or even learn the sport this is the place to start. Don’t think twice !

It’s only my second day, and I already love it! First off, Rob—the owner—is an amazing guy. Super friendly and makes sure everyone is treated like family. Second, the coaches are great at holding you accountable during classes, which really keeps you on track. And I absolutely love how authentic the place feels. Can’t wait to keep coming back!

Alright, so hear me out. First and foremost, I have dwarfism which obviously makes me a lot shorter than the rest of the members here. I have always endured ignorance. I have been a member of this gym for six months, and not one person has ever ostracized me or looked at me as my disability. I have never experienced this not once in any other gym, clearly emphasizing how inclusive Pilger's is and how much of a family vibe it provides. Secondly, each trainer will make you work your ass off. The classes are intense, but you are not forced to break your body. If you haven't worked out in years, you can take it slow. Lastly, it teaches you discipline. You will feel positively humbled. Your health will improve substantially. Shoutout to Gary, Corey, Cisco, Terrance, and the owner Rob for putting five more role models into my life. I still can't thank them enough for what this gym has done for me. Schedule your free intro class today!
