Church Street Boxing Gym — Local services in New York

This was my first experience at the Chelsea location for CSBG and I really liked it! I'm a usual member at the Park Place location in downtown and have been going there since Spring of 2019. For my Chelsea visit I attended an All Levels 7 a.m. class taught by Danny. The gym itself is clean, the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable, and the bathrooms are great. I showered here before I went to work, and I didn't have any problems whatsoever. I used the hangers in the ladies room for my coat and wet towel, lockers for my things, etc. I really enjoyed my experience and I would be very glad to come again.

As for my class itself, Danny is an excellent instructor. He is personable, kind and knows exactly what he's doing. He also pushes you to do better and to be better. I've taken his class twice before at the Park Place location so he has seen me before. What I appreciate very much is that he learns details about you, a mark of a great instructor, and strives to adapt the class to the people in it. He asked the names of the others in my class, and also tried to learn about them. The class I took at Chelsea, while not a Ladies Only class, ironically only had ladies in it. And he adapted the class to us. Also, as my class that morning was quite small, he gave us each one-on-one time while the rest of us practiced the drills he showed us. We also did quite a bit of core work. Which I greatly appreciated. While, not easy at all, it's so helpful for my own personal fitness goals, and I think also adds to making a class well-rounded. One more thing I might add, is that Danny gave us a full warm-up. (Not one of those half-way ones some places do to rush you through,without properly prepping your body for the workout. ) We did a full 15-minute warm up that was a mixture of a little cardio and core. I appreciate when a trainer goes by the book and does that.

Overall a great experience, great staff and a great trainer. I would definitely...

Did the "All levels" class and I am NEVER going back!!! First, the front desk guy made sure to tell me that the class was "VERY HARD!" more than once, with a tone saying the I would not be able to handle the class, without knowing my fitness or boxing background. Who do you think you are to be underestimating people??

During the class, we had to pair up and there was an odd number of people. I end up without a pair. Halfway into the class, he put me with one of the pairs, so whenever two people were sparring the 3rd person was either waiting or practicing on a bag. I spent 3/4 of class practicing on a bag alone and the instructor never once came to offer to be my pair or correct mine or anyone's forms, he was either sitting and watching or on his phone.

This gym has been my 2nd home for the last few years. Amazing friendly coaches that have real boxing experience (not bougie non-sense). If you are looking for the best HIIT workout to get in shape and learn a little boxing, this is the place. If you're looking to take it to the next step and learn technique and sparring, this is also the place! Remember, you don't have to hit anyone or get hit here, the regular classes are your typical HIIT classes you'll find anywhere in the city, but you have the option to take on advanced classes. The biggest difference is the coaches here actually have real boxing experience. If you're serious on building your boxing skills and want tips on proper form, pay attention and ASK the coach for tips, they are more than...
