I have never boxed before, but I've lifted weights for many years now. The instructions in the email told me to arrive 30 minutes prior so they can help me put hand wraps on and show me the boxing basics since I am a first-timer. Ruth was the first one I met and she was so chill and kind and a great teacher when teaching me the 6 basic punches. Then Anne came! She was the instructor for the class and was very hyped and motivated and encouraged everyone. She also gave me tips on how to improve my form and what to avoid doing and why. I really liked how thorough her explanations were. Her class had me SWEATING and i loved every second of it. I love pushing my body and being active and this class does exactly that. I also met Blake the owner of the place too and he was very kind! Overall I really enjoyed how welcoming the boxing club was and i look forward for many more classes with them!!

I would definitely recommend trying it out.

Sensei Oliver and his team went above and beyond to boost her confidence and fill their students with inspiration and encouragement. They know exactly what to say to make kids feel comfortable, safe, and encouraged, while also having them try their best and follow the dojo rules without making them feel ashamed for messing up. The community they have created there is wonderful, and we're so glad to be a part of it. Thank you, Sensei Oliver, for making my girl feel so good about herself, and for going above and beyond to do so. If you're considering where to have your child (or you!) take some karate lessons, look no further than Zen!

This review is for the Safe in the city series - it's a 12 week series self defense class for women…read more They also occasionally offer 2 hour free class (check on eventbrite) if you want to get a flavor first. Sensei Oliver is a great instructor, going step by step, we practice with other classmates and then with him so you get a more realistic sense. Not only does sensei Oliver teach self defense, he also talks about what predators are looking for and how to present yourself so not to be a weak target. Studio - awesome space, good lighting, plenty of street parking nearby I highly recommend the program.

I saw a 10 day set on groupon and swooped it up. Gil is the owner and he is a former boxer himself. This is his gym. It's a down to earth gym but a lot of the times as an adult you get 2:1 or 4:1 time with Gil for the training session. He also works with you if you're feeling weaker. There's a good combination of pushing you and knowing where your limits are. He makes sure I am conditioning my arms with other exercises like the row machine, bench press and more since my arms a little bit weaker. But I rock the jump ropes! Haha. They also have free gloves to wear... of course they are a little bit sweaty from prior use, but then again would you really want to box at a fancy gym? No! You want the grit and you want to realness of this gym.

Not only is Northern Shou Shu the most comprehensive and effective martial art around, every single person there treats you like family. The studio has seen me through recovery from a triple fusion in my cervical (neck) area, never pushing me beyond the point of safety. I never have to hide who I am or what I'm going through when I walk through those doors. The people who I now refer to as my brothers and sisters have helped me immensely...like the times I lost both of my parents. When I didn't know what to do with myself during intense grieving periods, I went into the studio. They helped me channel my grief into my art and it was a place of great refuge, healing and amazing productivity. There were times when I had tears in my eyes, but nobody made me feel weird about it, they are all Uber accepting and empathetic - not to mention incredibly skilled. I recently earned my brown belt and now my eyes are pointed toward my black belt. I have every faith that under the patient, skilled guidance and rock-solid leadership at Red Dragon Martial Arts my instructors will take me there! I've had job offers in different parts of the country and not taken them because there's no way I'm leaving the school and it's awesome team! If you and your family are looking for a place where there are great people and a magnificent martial art, you really should look no further. But if you do sample other studios, you will learn for yourself... Red Dragon is the best around!

I like the 7941 Fair Oaks Blvd. location better because it's kept very clean compared to the other…read moreCarmicheal location at 6314 Fair Oaks Blvd. However I don't understand why the other locations are open longer hours. Especially Friday-Sunday. You would think all the locations would have the same business hours of operation, but the 7941 Fair Oaks Blvd location closes an hour earlier and opens an hour later Monday-Thursday and Friday-Sunday they close two hours earlier. Seems like longer hours on the weekends would be more logical because most people are not working. Another issue is that the pool or jacuzzi seems to be closed due to whatever reasons quite often. Sometimes they are closed for 5 to 10 days or longer. This is an ongoing issue at both Carmicheal locations. These issues are inconvenient and make my recovery process slow or come to a halt at times. Other than that the facilities are adequate. I do recommend In-Shape. The staff is very professional and personable and the majority of the members are down to earth and good people. I've met quite a few members that I really like and respect. I would give 5 stars if it weren't for the issues stated above.
