Nuboxx is my happy place! I recently moved to DC and was seeking a place to get back into boxing and back into shape. I started training with Eric and got hooked instantly. He keeps the workouts challenging, but also manages to make me laugh while hes also making my fat cry. He has been a true partner in working with me on transforming my body - from sharing nutrition guidance to switching up our workouts to achieve specific goals. He also doesnt compromise on form - whether it be my boxing footwork or deadlift posture, he is always pushing me to do better. Highly recommend Nuboxx private training to anyone looking for a fitness plan that is fun, challenging, and effective.
Disappointing from boxing gym perspective. Conditioning was decent. Very little technical training or adjustments were provided, and what was given was poor. If you have any martial arts training, or are looking to learn to fight and defend yourself, I recommend another gym. Not a bad place if you’re more interested in the physical workout.
Ive been at Nuboxx for nearly a year now, and cant say enough good things about it! Eric is AMAZING and simply a lifesaver. After a bad knee injury, I was frustrated with lack of progress and pain relief from physical therapy. I reached out to Eric, who has patiently worked with me to rebuild strength--and to get past my own fear--to where Im now able to box, lift, and keep up with high intensity workouts without pain, even without a brace, for the first time in YEARS! Having surpassed my initial goals, he continues to push me to get better, whether in form, strength or technique. More recently Ive started the group classes, and the coaches keep it tough, fun, and fresh every time. Highly recommend!
Addictive Experience! Best place to get strong while losing weight. The NuBoxx coaches make the boxing experience challenging but FUN! Give it a try and change your life!
Bachelorette party at nuboxx!We had a bachelorette event at NUBOXX and the bride and bachelorette attendees could not have loved it more. Prior to the boxing class, Rachel and management were very easy to communicate with and happily answered all of my questions regarding booking, cost, other details. The cost was very affordable and more reasonable than other fitness studios in the area I had called for a private class.On the day of, the team at NUBOXX had set up a great table of NUBOXX gear for all of the ladies as well as a gift for the bride. The bride felt so special!The class itself KICKED OUR BUTTS. It was fun, lighthearted, and a great workout. Lauren was our instructor and we Would 10/10 recommend her for your class! She was awesome!Rachel and the team took pictures throughout our class for us and we are so grateful to have the afternoon’s memories documented. NUBOXX partnered with South Block juice co to offer us delish juices at the end of class and we ended up staying for an hour after the class in the lobby just enjoying the juice and good company. It made for a relaxed atmosphere and time to celebrate the bride-to-be!Thanks so much, NUBOXX! We all hope to come back soon.
This is my second boxing gym and it has been a great experience. The teachers are friendly and will go at your pace but also challenge you. The studio is really clean, elegant, and has lockers. The receptionist is always so kind and helpful and taught me how to properly wrap my hands.
Best workout experience Ive ever had that keeps me engaged and excited to go to the gym. The staff is very intelligent, patient, and encouraging. They work well with all experience levels and really push you to improve your skills and technique. The community of members are nice, supportive, and just as excited to be there. I travel all over the U.S. for work and tend to go to LA Fitness, Orange Theory, and other gyms on the road, but nothing compares to Nuboxx. I highly recommended it.
Supportive, kind, extremely knowledgeable coaches that are non-judgmental! Highly recommend for a great workout! Classes are kept small so there is a lot of one-on-one coaching. Take classes with each of the coaches; they’re all personable and ready to help you achieve any goals you may have!
I’ve been going to this gym for the past 3 months and it is easily the most fun I’ve had exercising. I had no previous boxing experience and tried it out of curiosity. It has become my favorite hobby, as well as a consistently great workout. The coaches are both patient and motivating. The facilities are very nice. I’d recommend it to anyone.
Ive been Nuboxxing for about nine months. I was really nervous at first - everyone seemed much younger and in much better shape than I was, and I wasnt sure if Id fit in or be able to do what the coaches were asking me to do. What I found was a challenging workout, a community of friendly students, and supportive coaches who pay attention to where each student is and help her figure out the next thing she needs to work on to improve her skills. Im looking forward to the opening of the second location (on U Street) later this year, where well be able to take some of the light contact drills we run in class into the actual ring! Bonus points for being woman-owned and for the fact that many of the coaches are amateur or pro boxers.
My knee pain and fears are almost gone thanks to the stellar coaches in the Strength & Conditioning classes! With constant encouragement (and modifications when needed) I am now able to lunge and squat confidently again because I have developed so many supporting muscles (for tight hams & quads). Inclusive & inspiring community has been a motivator during this endless winter that will help me jog safely into summer.
I have been going to Nuboxx for over a year and I have loved every sweaty minute. In Nuboxx I have not only found a workout, but a supportive community. Each coach challenges me and there is always opportunities to improve and grow as a boxer when you put in the work. The classes are small which provides for great one on one attention!
I have been to hundreds of fitness studios around the world, covering all types of workouts, and I have never felt more in my comfort zone when totally NOT than at NUBOXX. Im not a boxer, although I had done it before years ago, but I am a fitness addict so I was up for the challenge. From the minute I stepped through the door and got a tour of the building, to having other clients introduce themselves in class because they recognized I was new--NUBOXX is more than just boxing, its a genuine community geared at pushing people to their limits, and, like my experience, making them feel comfortable leaving their comfort zone. You must go in with an open mind, listen to your coaches, put in effort, and use your brain and youll get a great workout that never gets stale. So glad I found NUBOXX!
Looking for a bachelorette party idea? Look NO further! Our gang had so much fun and we got a great workout. The woman who owns the gym did everything in her power to give us a perfect experience! ALL LADIES should give this gym a try!
Not the nicest people. Workout was a bit generic and been done before. I feel like they really only cater to people who are fit. I didnt feel included at all. Workouts were not really challenging- Ive been to a lot of boxing studios and this was pretty sub-par. Its pretty clear the owners dont know much about boxing, much less about fitness in general. You should be able to answer basic questions about physiology if Im asking what the exercise is going to achieve for me! Also, very pricey! There are more reasonably priced studios in DC with boxing options!
Nuboxx is the best fitness experiences I have ever had. I started 6 months ago with a goal to lose a couple of inches around my waist and the place completely swallowed me. My body definitely looks leaner; however, now it’s all about my jabs and bricks (which was not a part of initial plan)! All coaches are masters of their craft. They know when to get tough and serious with you, they know when to be humble and fun, and they know how to inject confidence in you. They always take time to explain the proper techniques and they will work with you repetitively until it is right.Saying that, for the past 6 months with Nuboxx, I have not just lost weight and built muscle, but also learned variety of punching combinations, defending techniques, how to jump rope all funky ways, and made new friends! The only regret I have that I didn’t start earlier.
Great group of people. The facilities are spa like. The workouts are high intensity, full body and you learn very valuable skills, both mentally and physically. Highly recommended!!
I’ve been going to this gym for a year. Easily the most fun group classes I’ve experienced. The coaches are great as is the workout!
The owner is very shady. I signed up for a one week unlimited trial and stayed for a double a few times and she had someone call me and say the one week trial only includes one class a day. Then within 10 minutes they called me back and apologized saying it was an error on their end and they have to update the website to say only one class a day... so essentially its not my fault because I didnt know. Then I find out they charged my card 15 dollars for not making it to a class I signed up for. Way to treat a first time guest. Horrible business practice and money hungry. Learn customer service and learn how to treat your guests! I was planning on joining but that totally turned me off and rubbed me the wrong way. Thanks but no thanks. Going to try out UFC.✌🏽
Not really challenging. I dont get the no contact rules. Boxing IS contact... period. The owner seemed not nice at all- she seemed to be sneering and then looking through me, not at me. Also, Im not in the best shape in the world, but its really clear they dont cater to you unless youre one of the pretty, fit, young and white people. I think the instructors dont know very much about boxing, and they just watch Rocky movies to get an idea of what to say thats boxing-ish. If you dont look like someone they want to interact with, they dont even bother with you. I felt very uncomfortable. I also think they charge way too much, considering theyre not a real boxing studio. Find someplace else- this is just an ok workout. There are better places.
Awesome gym for small group classes. Dont need to know how to box but will leave feeling more self confident with an awesome workout.
Nuboxx is an amazing workout and the perfect fit for anyone looking for a different sort of challenge. Boxing can be intimidating, but the instructors and coaches work with you step by step to teach you the basic skills needed to box correctly. Their different classes give students an opportunity to pursue varied types of workouts led by experienced coaches. You wont regret trying Nuboxx.
Nuboxx is the best workout I’ve ever done. It’s a combination of real, technical boxing and strength and conditioning. I actually look forward to working out every day. I love Nuboxx!
I have never been one to enjoy studio fitness -- I never feel like Im in shape or cool enough to be part of the crew. Actually, lets be honest, I have never been one to enjoy fitness in general. I have always struggled with my weight, and exercise was the fifth circle of hell. However, all that changed when I decided to try Nuboxx on a whim last August. From the moment I walked in the door, the staff and coaches have been nothing but welcoming, friendly and encouraging. The class maxes out at 12 people, and so you always get a significant amount of personal attention. The coaches take care to learn your name and a little bit about you, and it really seems like they genuinely care about your form and progress. The classes are challenging, but I think they do a good job of scaling it so that any fitness level can participate. And more than that, its FLIPPIN FUN --who among us doesnt want to just let loose and punch some things in these trying times were living in. Since Ive become a regular, Ive lost a ton of weight and I notice a big difference in my core muscles. I highly recommend this place!
Great teachers, great workout, and really nice facility. So glad this place came to the neighborhood!
This was stupid... No-contact boxing?? Lol. Its a joke and overpriced. Go to one of the real boxing gyms nearby.
They are very good at scamming you out of your money - beware!
Great workout!
