I don't go here regularly but I've dropped by to roll quite a few times since 2006…read more It's exactly what I would expect from a bjj gym in Nola. It's like a pop-up in the back of a gym. There are exposed brick walls and some other characteristics you expect to find in these old buildings. It's next to a bar. The students are all friendly and many of them are interesting characters with crazy patches or mismatched neon color rash guards. One guy had a patch on his gi of Johnny Cash flipping the bird, which is the best possible patch if you ask me. I'm surprised there isn't a bar in the back of the gym or a brass band playing while we spar. Professor Matthias is an excellent teacher. I'd also imagine he'd be a great coach ringside as he is always very good at identifying opportunities for attack when we spar. He's also a really down to earth guy with some good stories. I wish I had the time to do bjj seriously again. It's frustrating to know that your skills are devolving while the bjj game keeps changing and evolving, but I guess that's just what happens when you get old. If I did have the time and inclination I would be proud to be a member here. You should check it out.

Being a girl, I have experienced some not so friendly training partners who have a thing about rolling with girls. This was not the case here. Everyone there was super nice, and I was glad to see another girl in the class! The instructor was super technical and thorough. He went over the technique in detail and then gave us plenty of drill time. After technique, he reviewed what he covered before it was time to roll. After a few rounds, he summarized the technique again, which I thought was awesome; repetition really helps new technique stick! What I loved the most was that before he dismissed class, he went around and asked everyone if they had any questions. He answered everyone's questions with patience, and did not rush, although it seemed another class was getting ready to start using the mats. Overall, I had a great time here and I will definitely check them out again whenever I go back and visit.

You won't regret it!

I did my research on boxing gyms, reading reviews and websites, and I will definitely say that I…read moremade the BEST choice by selecting Le Boxeur Gym. For the record, I'm from Houston and was visiting NOLA for a week. Additionally, I'm in my mid-40s, not as fit and trim as I once was, and wanted to take private lessons with someone who had years of experience. I've had some prior boxing experience, but had been 10+ years. I decided to train with Matt ('The Coach') because I wanted to focus on boxing technique, endurance and strength; Again, I made the best choice. Matt is one of the most intuitive people I've trained with. In about 5 to 10 minutes he knew everything from my personality to my taste in music. He has such a good sense/read of the person he is training, and of what they're capable, and oh man does he push you without using what I call shame tactics. These are the qualities to look for in a trainer because he will customize based off of your strengths and weaknesses. I trained with Matt for three days only, and while the warm-up was the same, everything the last 50-minutes was a surprise. Training with him makes one realize why boxing is called the "sweet science"; plus he's super smart, and a good conversationalist. The gym itself is pretty raw, meaning no A/C; however, it has everything you need to box (different types of bags, ring, etc.) and to train in boxing (weighted gloves, dumbbells, etc.). My recommendation is just go and train, with either Matt or Fred. I met Fred, the boxer, who looks intimidating, but is a friendly and approachable guy. I've already told a couple of friends who live in NOLA about my experience, and I plan on training here again when I return in October. This is an amazing opportunity (and price) for the training and experience they offer.

I loved this place! I had part of my bachelorette party here with about 12 people so we booked a…read moreprivate party. When we got there, we weren't really sure where to park but I called them quickly and they told me where we could go and the area looks really sketchy to be honest. There's like a painted sign with arrows telling you where to go in a warehouse, probably not the best place to go after dark, but the room for the silks is right there to the left when you walk in the garage door and Alex was there waiting for us. It's definitely a little bit of a workout and I was sweating a bit too but it's a great activity to do with your girlfriends and you get a lot of action shots while you're up in the air. You get a complimentary fruit or dessert tray with the party and we also paid for the charcuterie board and they were great snacks between your turn on the silks. We also had a group picture with the big ring that I sat on in the air as Alex posed everyone else and she sent the pictures to us after as well. Alex was super accommodating and worked with me with the booking and she was the one who instructed us and was very helpful to anyone who was struggling or uncomfortable. When you book a private party like that, I think you also get a discount for the next class you take so some of us are very excited to come back and do it again! You'll feel really graceful and confident while you're in the air with the silks. I had good reviews from all my ladies.

Booking classes online is straightforward and convenient. I think there's a cancellation window for cancelling if you can't make it. During class, one student arrived after warm and was told she couldn't join since she was so late. So make sure you arrive early! I came to a Tuesday class, and my instructor, Ariel, was absolutely amazing. She's patient, encouraging, and truly works with everyone in the room. She walks around during class to make sure everyone is performing the moves correctly and gives helpful pointers and tips on how to execute the moves effectively. What I really appreciated most is that she meets you where you are and provides individual feedback tailored to your level, which made the class feel very supportive and beginner-friendly. The only thing I wish I had known ahead of time is that sometimes you have to share a pole, depending on how full the class is. If I'd known that in advance, I probably would've chosen a less crowded class. I'm not a huge fan of sharing a pole, but in the end, it worked out fine and didn't take away from the overall experience. Overall, it's a great studio with excellent instruction and a welcoming atmosphere. I'm glad I signed up and look forward to taking more classes here!

If you want to get in incredible shape, this is the gym to go to…read more I used to lift here back when it was GeauxFit 3 years ago, and was "eh" at CrossFit, but I loved the hour workouts since it's do-able on any schedule. I moved away with work and got into powerlifting, but when I had to come back to New Orleans for 2 weeks and needed a gym, I decided to check it out again. One of the owners, David, was super awesome and offered me a free pass to come check out a class and even offered me a great deal on a 2 week open gym membership (thank you!). I was happy to see that a lot of the gym members from prior had stayed so the environment is still very much the same fun camaraderie. Just my luck, my intro back into CrossFit was one of the open workouts 23.3 (it was a doozy). I got lucky and the head coach, Thomas, was the coach for the class I attended, and he was a SAINT for putting up with me dying at the simplest of workouts and helping me scale to things I could manage. So for those people who might be nervous about trying it for fear of looking weak or out of shape, you shouldn't fear this gym, they'll work with you and get you caught up (although maybe check that it's not the opener before you show up LOL). I love that they work with you through the motions, have an awesome warm-up that is a workout in and of itself, and like I said, if you're serious about getting into great shape this is the gym for you! Thank you Vanguard for an awesome experience.
