I have been in this place 4 times. Though I would say that I liked this place during the first 3 visits, the 4th was rather stressful and unnecessary.
I've been taking many classes before, especially kickboxing, but it was my first Boxing class. The instructor was showing a tough facade hoping to push the students to work harder. Unfortunately, along with that tough facade came also insults, swearing, and berating. I've had harder classes before that were also not as uncomfortable.
It is one thing to yell at someone as encouragement. But the yelling was degrading, swearing, sarcastic, and uncalled for. I just have had it with him when he finally cursed at me and the person I was partnered with because he thought we did not pay attention. But he was the one that did not pay attention, thinking we were doing something not as he instructed. He also commented how one should "get off the drugs."
Quite frankly, I don't think it was a space for learning and developing skills. But obviously the management does not think so after bringing up the issue. Hence, I place the message as a warning for you.
I only bought the 10 groupon classes to try this place out. I may not even finish. I just don't want be in that environment, in case there's more of the type of "instructor" like the one I just had. We will see... so for now the place is an unfavorable 2 stars.
