Ballard Barbell and Boxing Club

This club is so great. Both coaches (Eli, Nathan) are amazing and they care a lot about building community, attracting kind and patient students at various levels. Their punch cards and free first trial class are a great way to get started and “feel out” the vibe. “No nonsense” and good individual instruction! Class schedule options are a bit limited but can accommodate busy work schedules with 6am and 6:30pm options. Eli and Nathan inspire me to try harder both physically and mentally

I boxed at another gym for a few months before coming here. Within 5 minutes I realized I was going to learn more in 1 day than those few months at the other gyms. Super welcoming to a new comer, but also a lot of direct coaching which I appreciate. Nathan and Eli are very different coaches which is great for someone new like me. They train hard there, and it is very technique driven, but all members seem to be treated equally regardless of their aspirations.

Tried the beginner class with some friends. Very cool staff, super knowledgeable and great at explaining the moves / techniques. The gym is in an easy location, parking is great and the prices are good too. Overall an excellent experience. I recommend this gym for all levels of boxers.

Me and my boyfriend tried the free boxing and fitness class, hands down AMAZING! All skill levels were in attendance, and the environment was incredibly welcoming by coaches and other members. I felt supported in technique and challenged, but did not feel any judgement as I can barely get thru push ups :) we will be back!

Eli and Nathan are really friendly. Went for the free class, they showed me around the gym which love is dog friendly and Nathan helped wrap my hands before class started. Right of the bat it wasn’t as intimidating bc of the warm welcome. Did some partner work and a HIIT finisher. I Planned on joining but from volleyball ended up spraining my thumb. Look forward to training with this gym once I heal.
