SheWolf MKE | Women’s Boxing & Fitness

I can’t say enough good things about this all-women’s boxing gym. The boxing training is legit. You’re learning real technique, real self-defense, and building serious skill — not just hitting a bag for cardio. The strength and conditioning programming is challenging in the best way. And the energy? Empowering doesn’t even begin to describe it. Every woman in that space is encouraged to take up space, get stronger, and own her power. It’s supportive, motivating, and zero intimidation. If you’re looking for a gym that builds confidence, strength, skill, and community all at once — this is it. Absolute game changer.

Truly impressed! Went to the open house/showcase of the girls youth boxing class and was amazed. The gym is a beautiful environment, the staff was welcoming and engaging, and the programming is unique and offers so much to all levels and ages. Any program that builds strength, competence and confidence to young women is giving a life long gift of empowerment and success. Congrats SheWolf on making a difference.

After my 2nd bebe, it was difficult/intimidating for me to get back in the gym, but I longed to feel strong again. This gym has allowed me to do that and more. Every coach/instructor is welcoming, organized and gives great feedback. They let me take the classes at my pace while also motivating me to lift a little bit heavier and keep going when the workout was getting tough. Boxing is so much tougher than I thought, but Donna teaches the basics really well and I feel so strong after each boxing class. This is just after my first 3 months, but I’m looking forward to many years here and getting my daughters into the youth boxing!

I started over half a year ago with Donna on solo mitt sessions and it kickstarted a new passion. I always wanted a safe, encouraging and motivating boxing gym meant for women in Milwaukee. Donna and the team deliver this ten fold. I had no experience starting out and as intimidating as it seemed to be to try out a new sport, I am so thankful I took a chance on myself and SheWolf. It has become my space to reset and reground. If you need a place to decompress, shut off your brain and get your body moving, join the wonderful community that is being built at SheWolf! I am feeling healthier, a little more coordinated 😅 and stronger each class and session 💪

I joined SheWolf 6 months ago, when they first opened, based on a strong recommendation from my partner who is also in the boxing community and spoke highly of the owner, Donna, because of her approach and philosophy to boxing. He said: "she is doing it right; this is needed and is going to be great." Well, truer words could never have been spoken. As a 48 year old pretty out of shape women who was trying to find a fitness structure in effort to take back my health, committing to an intense boxing regimen is definitely not where I thought I would land, but I'm sure happy I did. Since the beginning, I've faced my cardio demons, increased my heart efficiency, sleep better, and have even engaged a side trainer to round out the great things my mind and body are experiencing. SheWolf is a women's only boxing gym comprised of such inspiring, talented and highly accredited coaches, who do this out of pure passion for not just the sport, but for the purpose of building women's confidence, skills, and helping them achieve their goals. The training is not like a 9 round or similar circuit gyms. It's brilliantly structured in a way that you're being trained and conditioned to prepare you to pursue competitive boxing if you wanted, but beginners are totally welcomed and won't be lost, either. Just want to be there for fitness like me? They've got you. There are a variety of classes like strength, boxing, yoga, self defense, kick boxing, and jump roping. The intangible you get, is a connected judgement-free community of amazing ladies, from all walks, supporting each other both inside and outside the gym. For me boxing has become my thing. It's become my release, my clarity, my challenge and my favorite form of me time. I credit this to the SheWolf community and my advice is RUN DON'T WALK :)
