I have trained with Coach Mike for two years and he has taught me everything I know about boxing. He truly cares about your technical, physical and psychological progression as a boxer. Take one class with him and you will realize that he can see right through you, no matter your level, because he's worked with every type of fighter. It lets him identify your unique weaknesses - be it technical flaws or lack of motivation - and apply different methods to fix them, while treating you the same if you're a novice or a veteran. He believes in everyone equally, and if you put in the work you really feel that he doesn't give anybody more attention just because they're better fighters. Hitting pads with him also stands out - he doesn't hold up pads for you to hit and let your hands go. He will not let you get away with a single punch thrown with poor technique, he will correct you on the spot, and he is the most consistent teacher I've ever had. Nothing about his teaching is confusing or too technical, you will leave his classes always knowing exactly what to do and what to work on.
In my opinion this is why he is the best complete boxing coach out there. He's also coached Olympians and World Champions. So if you are interested in boxing, then you need to take advantage of his group and private classes. It really is a crazy opportunity and privilege to have access to and learn from such a...
Read moreI have been a fan of boxing for a long time and I started training in my early 20’s and I worked with a good number of different trainers. None of them come close to Coach Mikes level of training, intensify and knowledge for the sport of boxing. This man is another level when it comes to his technique and toughness that he instills into all his students. Especially if you are considering taking this sport to a professional level or have the desire to want to compete this is the guy you want in your corner! His resume alone and list of champions that he’s trained in his lifetime is proof that his coaching is highly effective. Before I met coach Mike I barley ran 2 miles and couldn’t jump rope longer then 3 minutes. I have been training with coach Mike for about 15 months now and I can run up to 6miles with 1 pound weights in my hands and I jump rope for about 8-10 min. I always had great aspirations and desire to want to compete in the sport of boxing, but my only regret is that I wish I would have met Coach Mike in my early teens. One of my dreams growing up was to win the golden glove tournament but I didn’t have the right discipline and drive until recently. I guarantee with coach mikes expertise and my hard work and persistency I can accomplish a lot despite my age. I am proud to say I am one of Coach mikes students and he is also a great mentor inside and...
Read moreCoach Mike has a tough as nails approach and is one of the best. When we brought our son to Coach Mike to learn the fundamentals of boxing, his training exceeded our expectations. Our son had never boxed before taking a class with Coach Mike (although he’d done a similar physical activity in the past). After just a few classes training with Coach Mike, we have noticed a major improvement in not only our son’s form, but also in his attention outside of the gym. Coach Mike does an excellent job of giving his students equal attention in class, regardless of how full the class is. How he’s able to correct form, deliver instruction, and explain how to execute moves to students individually while maintaining order is like magic. We highly recommend Coach Mike’s boxing class to parents who want to instill discipline, focus, and to of course learn the fundamentals of boxing. The positive skills developed in the class he teaches will extend...
