I have know Coach David Donis for 20yrs. I was one of his first students when he was just renting space from gyms. Its crazy how time flys. This man and gym have given me so much in life. From teaching and learning about boxing and growing as individuals. This gym is made for anyone who desires to learn fundamentals in boxing or get in shape.

Leaving this gym was one of the hardest decisions we’ve had to make, and it had nothing to do with the quality of the coaching or the community, only distance. If it weren’t for a move and the reality of over an hour of heavy traffic each way, we would still be there without hesitation. Sean’s coach was a true guiding light for him. Sean genuinely respected him, looked up to him, and admired not just his skill, but his discipline, demeanor, and style of boxing. The coaching here goes far beyond punches and footwork. He helped instill discipline, self-respect, and confidence, lessons that will stay with our son for life. We cannot thank him enough for the knowledge he shared and the passion he helped ignite in Sean. What truly sets this gym apart is its culture. Every member is held to a high standard, and that standard is upheld through mutual respect and teamwork. Everyone helps everyone get better. It’s not just a gym, it’s a community. You can feel it the moment you walk in. Champions aren’t just trained here; they’re shaped daily through hard work, accountability, and support. This is, without question, the best boxing gym and fight science community in the area. If you’re serious about boxing, or about building discipline and character alongside skill, this is the place. We’re incredibly grateful for the time Sean spent here, and we’ll always carry respect and appreciation for what this gym and its people gave our family.

Donis Boxing is hands down one of the best gyms you could train at. From the moment you walk in, you feel welcomed and motivated. The atmosphere is positive, disciplined, and encouraging, making it a great place for both beginners and experienced boxers. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable and take the time to work with each person individually, making sure technique, footwork, and conditioning are done correctly and safely. What really sets Donis Boxing apart is the level of dedication the coaches have to their athletes. They genuinely care about your progress and push you to reach your full potential while still being patient and supportive. Every workout is well-structured, challenging, and rewarding, and you can see real improvement in strength, endurance, and confidence over time. The gym also has a strong sense of community. Everyone is respectful, focused, and supportive, which makes training there even more enjoyable. Whether your goal is to get in shape, learn self-discipline, or train competitively, Donis Boxing provides the perfect environment to grow mentally and physically. I highly recommend Donis Boxing to anyone looking for serious training, great coaching, and a gym that truly feels like family.
