I cannot say enough awesome things about Urban Boxing DC, this place is definitely among the best gyms in the city. The workouts are fun, intense, and rewarding. All of the instructors are amazing and extremely professional, and ensure that you're not just breaking a killer sweat, but that you're having fun while doing it and learning skills along the way. I have to shout out especially to Coach Nathan, who invests so much in all his students and really values every UB member's experience and improvement. He also trains some of the best amateur fighters in all of DC. I absolutely recommend Urban Boxing to everyone, it's a place that will change your life for the better.

I cant say enough good things about this gym! Classes here are different from most other gyms because the instructors not only lead awesomely intensive classes but also teach proper fight form. Therefore, it;s a suitable place for both those just looking for excellent high intensity workouts and aspiring fighters. I really enjoy pushing myself physically while also learning how to perfect my punches. Urban boxing gets two thumbs up from me!

I wish I could give this place 0 stars. I have attended many fitness classes throughout DC and this was my least favorite by far. I don't know about the company culture, but my specific instructor was extremely sexist.

The first portion of the class doing partner training on the floor was fine, although he was spending significantly more time assessing the men's form. The second portion of the class was horrific. All of the men were ushered over to the boxing ring where the instructor had them practicing skills and techniques, while every single woman was left on the floor and told to do "200 squats in a group". So while all of us females are off to the side with our arms one another (yeah - I'm serious) doing synchronized squats, the men have the instructors undivided attention and actually get to learn to box.

At the end of class, the instructor pulled me aside and told me I should "attend a beginner class first". I was mortified. First off, the class I had signed up for was advertised as all levels which seemed to come as a shock to him (instructors should know the class they're teaching). Also, to single me out was appalling in my opinion. I am a former two sport collegiate athlete and am well-equipped to handle most classes.

I truly found the entire experience unpleasant and abysmal. I would not recommend this sexist dump to anyone unless you are an egotistical, chauvinistic halfwit.

This is a really nice boxing/mma/kickboxing gym. They have pro trainers and Lou is such a good guy too. They took good care of me and offer month to month memberships too! Oh and this gym is super clean and stacked with the proper equipment.

A really fantastic coaching staff who promote a really friendly and inclusive attitude that can be hard to find at boxing clubs. The training and coaching standards are exceptional, and I got plenty of individual attention to my form and technique, even in a large mixed-ability class. This gym offers a really outstanding combination of real excellent standard with a positive relaxed atmosphere.

Incredible gym. When I moved to an apartment without a gym, I wanted to try something new and found this! This boxing gym is amazing. Top notch trainers! They are extremely accommodating and helpful. They want to see you get better and they absolutely help you do that! I unfortunately broke my foot so I have not been back in a while but once I am better - I cannot wait to get back. They have been amazing with pausing my membership during this injury. No stress, no worries at all!

This is an amazing gym full of serious, committed and friendly instructors and equally serious, committed and friendly members. Workouts are intense and I could quickly improve both my conditioning and technique. Highly recommended.

The atmosphere inside the gym is amazing. The workouts are great! It is a great place for those who want to combine physical fitness training with boxing and other martial arts. I like the fact that we workout as a group. We all push each other to do our best. You can also sign up for free workouts with a private instructor for free.

It's ok. It's pretty crowded after work. The classes are a great workout. The teachers are hit-or-miss; Nathan is great and if I had decided to continue classes it would have exclusively been to take his. He's young but has a lot of experience and gives good feedback. If you want to improve your technique take his classes. But overall the class sizes were too big for me and the space was too crowded to enjoy myself.

I came from out of town and asked if I could train a couple of days... incredibly friendly staff. Lots of equipment and space to punch yourself to exhaustion. The trainners also definitely know what they are doing. Overal great experience and will definitely come back in my next trip to DC. Thanks guys!

I had a great first work out here and would definitely sign up for a membership if I wasn't moving! I took a class with Justin and he is a great instructor. It's always very nerve racking going into a new class when you spend all you're time doing yoga. He was very supportive and motivating! All of the staff was very helpful and friendly. Overall a great experience. Thanks Urban Boxing DC!

I love how friendly the staff all is. The members are also very energized and excited to be there. It's truly a family. Great work out, I'm a beginner. The encouragement from the instructor to the environment is all top notch. If you're in DC you have to at least attend one class! You will probably fall in love like I did. Best decision made while in DC hands down.

This is a great environment for beginners to learn boxing and work out. The atmosphere is very friendly and inviting. The staff works well with you and guides you through the training. The managers are very approachable and help you with any problems you may have. I would recommend this to everyone who likes a good work out and wants to learn the techniques of boxing.
