This is an amazing local gym with a great sense of community. You will not only find boxing, but kickboxing, self defense, kenpo karate, strength training and other amazing classes throughout the week. All skill levels welcome as you go at your own pace. No matter what class, when, or who is leading, you will get a great workout. If you come consistently for 2-3 months, I guarantee youll be in the best shape of your life.

This place was recommended to me by some family members who had seen a Groupon and started attending weeks prior. After some old fashioned peer pressure, I reluctantly bought a Groupon and started attending class as well. Although I absolutely hate working out, Im so happy I found this place! All the staff and teachers are so kind and encouraging, especially when I dont think I can go on and want to just go home. I am still out of shape but Ive already built my stamina up, have noticed a positive change in my body and have more confidence in my self defense ability
We had our first class just yesterday with my fiancé and it was great! The place is great, small, affordable and they’ll kick your butt with the workout. We got trained on how to wrap our hands and got fitted for gloves. They showed us the basic moves for boxing and we were then put in a class! Our instructor was amazing and showed us what to do each time. We rotated between boxing and a circuit type workout. I look forward to continuing to come here and improve my fitness!!
This place is great. Varied types of workouts. New class offerings like yoga and Muay Thai. Glad I found this place.
Great teacher that teach you good technique. Def recommend it
This is a wonderful place for training whether if you want to learn martial arts or boxing. The staff members and everyone are very nice and helpful. I would definitely recommend this place.
No joke, I love this place. I started training with the staff here almost two years ago. I knew nothing about martial arts. I just knew that I needed to get in shape and didnt want to go back to a normal gym.This place is small and, at times, feels more like a club than a gym. Youll quickly get to know people, if not by name then by face. And youll find that everyone is cheering for each others success.Owner Greg Eck has been one of the primary instructors Ive trained under. His classes are accessible to beginners as well as more experienced martial artists. And theyre a great workout! Make sure you bring a towel!If youre just looking to get into shape, you cant go wrong with the boxing classes. They blend classic exercises, cross-fit style exercises, and boxing into a serious workout.I cant recommend this place enough if youre looking to have some fun and keep engaged while getting in shape. This is way better than just running on a treadmill!Update: I recently moved to Seattle and had the opportunity to train at one of the most popular martial arts schools in the area. They cant compare with Downers Grove Boxing! Not all martial arts gyms are created equal and DG Boxing is the gold standard!
As soon as I walked in I felt welcomed. I had never boxed before and the owner taught me how to wrap my hands. I had a great workout and everyone in the class was awesome and very supportive.
What a great place to train! Fun classes and people. Lots of energy!
