I need to start by saying that since remote learning started in 2020 my teenage son has been a…read morecouch potato. The only thing that ignites a fire in him are trips to the fridge. That was until we paid a visit to TMX. As a parent I was impressed with the cleanliness and the Covid Safety measures in place. As well as the professionalism displayed by the staff. My biggest accolades for this gym is the fact that after only being there for about 10 minutes the staff made my son feel so comfortable and excited that a fire within was ignited and he actually stayed for a class. So far my son has only been to one class however we have signed him up for a membership. His words at the end of the class were "who knew exercise could be so much fun"!

My online inquiry was responded to quickly by Liz and she connected me to Chris, one of the trainers. I set up a series of private sessions and found Chris to have great technical skills and an easy to follow teaching philosophy. I learned a lot during my sessions and plan to return when I am in the area. This business has a friendly environment and is well run. I highly recommend TMX for both beginners and those with more experience. Thank you Sara and Chris for making me feel so welcome, improving my skills, and for great workouts!

Lots of free weights, grunge type..you know, where you actually sweat. Well, this is one of those places with a twist. There are two separate buildings; side-by-each as we say in RI. One houses the strength conditioning equipment (weights, treadmills) and the other is the cardio side which houses the boxing ring, heavy bags and everything else you would typically find in a MMA environment. What's nice is it's not your typical (Yo, Adrienne!) type gym or mentality. I would estimate it is evenly split 50/50-male/female...as more people become aware of the benefits of this type of cardio/core training. There is instruction (group and private) at all levels including: children's sessions in Boxing and Jujitsu; adult Muay Thai; BJJ, Boxing (non-contact) and sparring (only if you wish). While there are other places that offer some type of self-defense training, this is the ONLY boxing venue in the area. Overall, the best price structure as well. So if you're a beginner-advanced, just want to lose weight....OR MAYBE...you want to learn a good take down move the next time the guy in front of you is about to clear out the crab legs at the buffet...then this is the place.

I lost inches in areas where I struggled with my whole life. Ally's workouts are hands down the best workouts I have ever done.

I am vigilant with my attendance which clearly makes all the difference. I highly recommend taking a class - you will get addicted quick!

It only took one class for me to absolutely fall in love with this class! They aren't kidding that…read moreall levels are welcome and any ability. I had never taken a formal boxing class before and it was very easy to walk in and feel relaxed in the class format. The instructors are great at keeping the class moving, and helping you out if you need it. Yes, there are people in the class that clearly are 'experienced' boxers, but I have yet to feel any intimidation or hesitation returning to the class. The format of stations and high interval training keeps the class moving and you basically pair up with someone on the same level as you. You don't even have a lot of time to even compare or think about what other groups are doing. Within minutes of the class your heart rate is up, and sweat is coming down. I've only been to about 4 classes now, and have become obsessed with this type of workout. The constant mix up of exercises keeps you on your toes, literally. I love the bag work and partner pad work; but you also get quite the ab workout and other areas of your body covered. The instructors keep you right on time, so you don't have to fear class going over or anything; and if you don't have your own gloves they do provide high quality gear. Everything is very clean and everyone I've had classes with are all extremely nice and welcoming. I'm an avid workout person, and have done things from running to crossfit to rowing, and this might be by far my favorite type of workout yet! I highly recommend this place! [also extremely affordable for the workout you're getting!] Only thing I wish they could change is offering more than the 6pm-7pm group class because working outside of Newport sometimes makes it hard to get there!

I've been going to Box Around for about a month now and my only regret is that I didn't start…read moresooner. I had some preconceived notions of what a boxing gym would be and I couldn't have been more wrong. All of the people training at Box Around are great people. Bud Lakin, is a great trainer and an even better person. I came in totally green and after a month I can move around in the ring pretty decently and hit the bag the proper way. The boxing training is great for someone like me that doesn't like to just run. I get a great cardio workout every time I go and I've already lost about 6 pounds of flab. I really can't stress enough how good the atmosphere of this gym is. There's no swearing and yelling, just a bunch of people training that are very supportive of each other. My kids are a little young to bring in the gym, but once they're a little older I will bring both as soon as I can. The price is more than reasonable especially considering the attention you get from Bud. If you have always been curious about picking up boxing even if it's only for fitness and confidence, Box Around is an awesome place to go. A quick side note, I called about 3 to 4 gyms trying to get some info up front and Bud was the only person to call me back. I'm very happy that he did, I wouldn't want to train anywhere else. Here is the link to their site, the posted one doesn't work at the moment. http://boxaroundboxingclub.com

I will preface this review with why we decided on boxing for a 5 year old - My 5 year old son who…read moreis very small for his age was being picked on by some older children, and once I saw this with my own eyes I decided it was time to teach him how to stand up for himself and give him some confidence that would allow him to grow into the person he is meant to be. (not beaten out of him by bullies) My son after 5 weeks- He knows the proper stance, how to properly throw a punch, hit the heavy bag, balance shadow boxing on a tire, and even hit the gloves in the ring. Bud Lakin is firm but kind, quickly gaining my sons respect. He has given my son a new level of confidence. My son is able to handle the corrections Bud makes to his stance or rhythm because he knows Bud is helping him and knows it comes from a good place. The lessons are reasonably priced and really the best money my husband & I have ever spent (we both agree). We are doing twice a week on Tuesday and Thursdays and each time the lesson is over my son is amazed how fast the hour and a half went and eager to stay longer. The gym has other children around 10-14yrs old in at the same time, and they are kind and encouraging to my son and polite and respectful to myself. There are also usual a couple of other men and women training who are also friendly and make us feel welcome. Last week Bud had my son work in the ring with a grown man...the man was on his knees so he was eye level with my son and allowed my son to practice his boxing skills on him, bobbing and weaving to make it a real challenge for my son teaching him how to move like a boxer . It was a real highlight for my son. Also, with the children, there is NO contact, meaning my son does not ever get hit. These lessons really build his confidence and keep him safe. My husband plans on taking lessons once he gets a few days off from work. Bud is teaching my son lessons that will stick with him forever. These are life skills in this tough society we now live in. I highly recommend this gym for anyone interested in learning the art of boxing, I enjoy watching Bud Lakin work with my son and the others training. It is like watching a master teacher. You can see he does it for the love of boxing, not the money.
