Best boxing gym in the northeast. But it’s more than just boxing, they offer a selection of group classes like HIIT, circuit training and more. Coach Octavio and Edwin are friendly and experienced, they offer private training for a more intimate experience. If you want to learn to box or just get in shape then this is the place for you.

Hands down the best gym in the city ! I’ve never looked forward to working out or going to the gym until I started coming here. The vibe is great, the gym is spacious, clean, and have all of the equipment you’ll need. I’ve learned way more than I could’ve imagined while only being there a short time, and that speaks to how knowledgeable and experienced the trainers are. Coach Octavio will definitely bring the best out of you.

By far the best gym in the Philadelphia area! Family culture and all of our staff want you to get the most out of your money, time, and experience! Octavio and our other trainers’ knowledge and motivation is unmatched and fitting to everyone from beginners to professional boxers and weightlifters. Very clean, modern, and we are constantly making additions and updates to our facility. If you want a bang for your buck, take boxing and/or fitness seriously, and want a sense of community as well as a personalized experience, come give our gym a visit! Your first three sessions are free and I promise you will not be disappointed!

Coming to this gym has become my favorite part of my day. All the coaches are extremely knowledgeable and professional. They will work with you regardless of your level of experience to personalize training and provide support to facilitate the kind of growth that you need. The staff is very friendly and professional. They work hard to create a great training environment and have gone above and beyond to ensure your health and safety, especially with concerns relating to the corona virus. Whatever it is your looking for, Octavio and the rest of the team will help you find it. This is the gym you want to be at!

My entire family trains at Lets be elite, my wife and two sons love the fitness equipment, they are one of the few gyms in the area with tires to do flips. They also have plenty of punching bags to work on. Both my sons ages 9 & 15 receive personal coaching lessons from Octavio and they love it!

Personal training with coach Octavio has been a rewarding experience. I like the fact that he takes into consideration your personal fitness goals yet starts by strengthening your weakest areas first. He is very knowledgeable, personable, and professional.

Clean and well kept equipment. The schedule and program is very well structured and organized. Lastly, the trainers monitor and instruct each individual very well. Not like other gyms I have experienced where the trainers don’t really pay attention to the trainees.

This gym is my home away from home. I spend a lot of time here. Excellent training and fitness programs, Friendly Staff, gym is well kept and very clean. I’m a Police Officer and a member of the Police Boxing Team. My daughter who is 16 years old and a Golden Gloves contender is also a member here. The training we receive at Let’s Be Elite keeps us in great physical condition and prepares us for further competition. I also had the pleasure of meeting and training with a lot of good people here. Excellent gym. I highly recommend.

Out of almost every gym I looked at and been to in Philly this is by far the best. You get what you pay for! It’s a clean gym, great staff, and your classmates are also friendly and ready to help! The coaches make you feel comfortable and can answer any questions you have. This is definitely the gym to choose if you want to learn how to box!!

After years of being bored in the gym and not seeing results, I tried out Let’s Be Elite and absolutely love it. The classes are challenging but rewarding, and all levels of fitness are welcomed, regardless if you are already in shape or just beginning your fitness journey, you will always feel comfortable. The gym has a great group of positive people, the trainer is professional and makes each class different and exciting, with workouts targeting every part of your body. Be consistent and you will definitely see results. I’m glad I found this place, I highly recommend it!

First of all, everyone at the gym is extremely welcoming, whether its your first visit or youre a seasoned boxer. I knew nothing about boxing, yet every member was encouraging or eager to help a novice. Octavio and his staff are not only patient and unfailingly motivational, but theyll get the best out of you. I couldnt want anything more from a gym than that. id recommend Lets Be Elite to anybody.

I have been with Let’s be Elite for over 3 years now. I both box, and do my fitness at the gym. Octavio has helped me reach my goals and has helped me with my police fitness test and i am now starting the academy in just a few short months. Elite is an amazing place to start your new year, and fitness goals. Weather your big or small it’s a safe and judge free zone her !

One of the best gyms in the Greater Northeast Philadelphia Area. The coaches are very knowledgeable when it comes to getting in shape and/or in the area of contact sports. You will not feel intimidation as every member is guided through the fundamentals of a targeted workout. One big problem in the gym world is members worrying about their own goals and not taking time to help others. Not here. The members of this gym are very well goal-oriented and not only do they focus on their own goals, but they also motivate each other in ways that help with achieving your own. Follow these guys on Instagram and see for yourself. Review some before and after photos that have been posted along with videos pertaining to contact sports like boxing. The trainers at this gym are no rookies. They have certifications with years of experience and can guide you into looking your best in whatever area you decide to participate in. Do not be shy either. If you have questions, reach out to the coaches directly. They are nice and will respond in a timely manner!

Best boxing trainer around. The owner/trainer Octavio is one of the best boxing minds I know and I’ve been around boxing all my life. He also kills the group workouts along with the personal workouts. If you’re looking for a kickass gym, this is the place to be.

There are many things I can say about this gym. Ill try to stick with the basics. For starters the gym is CLEAN, the staff, trainers especially the owner stays on top of it. The boot camp classes are no joke. You can go at your own pace but you will be pushed to give it your all. You get to know the other members and create a bond with them. Which in time makes you part of the gym family!

Review №58

Clean facility, clean mats, good equipment, immature environment. Good bjj classes, good muay Thai, Boxing coach/ owner octavio teaches well but only really cares about money, will talk behind your back to other members and smile to your face . If your looking to train I would recommend only if you dont mind being coaches by a 2faced coach who talks shot behind your back . Other then that the jujitsu is good, muay Thai is good, and gym is good just not the personality running the gym. Should stop talking about members behind their back, shows low character.
