Being a member of this gym has been a great experience. Frank motivates you, and so do the other gym members.
Real nice group of guys over there. Head coach frank is great

I had just finished watching a top 10 boxing highlight reel on YouTube and I decided that I should try boxing for fun and then see where I'd go from there. I had absolutely no idea how it would go as all my life I had primarily been a water creature who swam and played water polo (Go Bruins!). Naturally I was quite uncoordinated and unconditioned to working intensively on land.
I came into Silva's after googling the highest rated gyms in my area. The first that came up was, naturally, Silva's. I met the owner/ head coach, Frank, and he was a cool dude. Though he has a gruff exterior and swears like a sailor, he was very down- to- Earth, and quite the experienced and esteemed boxer to boot. The man knew what he was talking about so I placed my faith in him and signed up after a free class not long after.
Pros:
Frank and his band of coaches are all really friendly and knowledgeable on the subject, regardless of your goals in the gym. Some guys go there to train for professional fights. Some guys go in there to learn self- defense. Still others, like myself, go in there for conditioning and a way to de-stress after working all day at a law firm. They do not force you to do anything you don't want and I'm honestly astounded by how much personal attention I receive every day i'm there even though I didn't sign up for private lessons. You will not be pressured to spar if you don't want too.
There is no ego in the gym. At anytime, there are multitudes of men and women, ages, and skill/conditioning levels at the gym. You're treated the same, and even the veterans of the gym are willing to help you out (ie, punch correctly, stand correctly, move correctly... you get the idea).
Clean!
Full size boxing ring!
Has a fridge!
Hours and days are flexible and convenient.
Also has MMA on Tuesdays/ Thursdays
Cons:
Gym may be a little small for some people, especially when its crowded.
Gym is a bit more on the pricy side (though honestly all fighting gyms in the are are similar). Frank was kind enough to lower my monthly fee and I will forever appreciate it, though I wouldn't expect him to do it for everyone. You have been warned.
Music. Depending on your tastes you may not enjoy it all the time. Frank's stuff is awesome (plays oldies, classic rock, 90's hip-hop, metal, etc) but a lot of the time people will play their modern hip- hop or EDM, which I cannot stand. Unfortunately, not everyone is a fan of DJ Premier like I am. If music isn't a deal breaker, or you bring your own you should be fine.
Overall: I like the place, and you will too. Its been a few months since I started and I already feel ready to spar (especially since I never thought I could). I share little resemblance to myself when I started and it has given me loads of confidence.

Frank is a great trainer. Me and my son are members in his gym since 2012.
Wether you want to get shape or learn competitive boxing. He is the right guy.
He is great with kids and good and honest man.

I've been going to silva boxing for three months and it's been the greatest work out experience. After one week of going I learned so much and was just eager for more. I went from being scrawny to cut in less than a month. Everyone here is so friendly too. I've made a lot of friends, and it's like a second family.
I joined Frank's gym a little over a month ago and boy am I impressed. I was a bit skeptical about this gym but signed up because Frank remembered me checking it out a week before and it was close to home. The gym has a great vibe, always buzzing with activity and people of all ages and genders getting their work in. Frank pays attention to everyone, motivating them through their workouts and correcting your form (even when you think he's not looking). If you're looking for a friendly, well-run gym with an awesome trainer this is the place for you!
I have been working out with Frank for a year and a half. He's a great coach and designs each individual's workout to fit their personal fitness goals. Everyone is welcome and everyone who works out here seems like family. There's no ego or attitude, just boxing and fitness. The gym is an authentic boxing gym, with a full size ring, 7 heavy bags, a couple speed bags and everything else you need to get in a good workout. Highly recommend Frank Silva Boxing.
Been going to this gym for almost 4 years. Great coach and great environment. Frank Silva is an excellent mentor. I wouldn't train anywhere else.
Have known coach Frank for over 6 years great guy great gym. Most of all great family Frank and this gym have not only got me in great shape but in a great state of mind and direction nothing but good things to say about Silva boxing and Frank himself.
Whether you're looking to get in shape or sharpen your boxing technique, this is the best gym in town. Coach Frank is great, he motivates and inspires you to reach your goals. I highly recommend this gym.
