Great place to get a good work and to learn the fundamentals of boxing.
Sometimes life deals us a lot and we need a change. For me and my personal journey that start came at the Boxing Yard. Jacksonville has a pulse and the Boxing Yard helps provide the beat. They gave me life skills I never had and showed me I COULD. It is hard work and you have to put in effort, but when you leave you will have a renewed feeling of you CAN. If you need a change, a good workout, or some strength, go visit the Boxing Yard for one of their classes, you will be glad you did. Things to note when you go... take a large bottle of water; gloves are provided; eat a balanced meal with some carbs a couple hours before; hydrate through your day and be willing to work hard. Classes are in the evenings and Saturday mornings with more training options on the website. The vibe of the gym is awesome and has a Rocky feel. So don't be shy and glove up and get moving!
Best place if you really want to work. No amenities just great Coach, people and HARD WORK! Been going for past 18 months
I love the boxing yard, such a great environment! Wonderful trainers and people that come out to work out. I never feel left out. I leave the gym dripping in sweat!! I will always come to this gym.
The best way to start my weekend! Awesome trainer and excellent workout!
Attended the boxing yard 2 years ago. Was surprised to find they were billing me monthly for a membership that I never signed up for. When I asked for my money back they offered me store credit towards training services. This is completely unacceptable. I really liked the people there. This is unacceptable business practice.
Never been to a boxing gym before, everyone was very welcoming, they push you to work hard but in the best way, overall a great experience!

The best boxing conditioning gym in Jax for women and men. Old school real boxing gym. HARDCORE!!!!

I was on a business in JAX, really needed pinch the bag so I visited The Boxing Yard. Everything was perfect except the air didn't circulate through the gym and felt shortness of breath.
Absolutely the best gym in Jacksonville! The instructor, a former boxing Olympian, really knows what he's doing and will push you to be your absolute best. I've been coming here for 2 years and the classes never get boring. If you want to lose weight, get in shape, or just take a really fun class, you have to come to the Boxing Yard!
It's been almost a year since I started working out at The Boxing Yard. Great mix of cardio, boot camp style drills and of course boxing. I came to get in shape and try something new and got just what I wanted with a few extra benefits. I have lost 10lbs, 2 dress sizes, my confidence level has increased and have met a ton of friends.
I have lost a substantial amount of weight, became stronger, and regained confidence lost after having children. The environment is welcoming, the trainer Hector is the best, and I highly recommend everyone consider visiting. I love the boxing yard!
June 2014 My long term friend was relentless in her pursuit of my accompanying her first class to this gym."Personally, I dont work out" "Maybe one day I'll try it" "I only run if being chased".... were my commonplace responses to those who invited me to gym. However I was guilted & forced myself to muster a grimacing smile &begrudgingly I went......
THE BOXING YARD literally changed my attitude, experience, ideas towards fitness & ultimately changed my life for the better.....Prior to my first class at the boxing yard I had been to the gym maybe 10 times in my existence all attempts I found to be mundane, stale, boring, repetitive, lacking challenge & I loathed every second wanting to punch myself for mindlessly mimicking a routine & staring down the clock in agony. I literally wrote off the idea entirely UNTIL This day& this gym.......
My FIRST CLASS was so engaging & focused until when they said it was over, I was confused--SHOCKINGLY THE hour FLEW BY... the routine never got SLACK... Everyone not just me was constantly challenged & engaged through out the hour.
Most of my first week at the boxing yard my body wanted me to quit but I refused. I was ecstatic to have a gym where I felt I was doing something when I went that I refused to quit... I challenged myself & committed to attend every class for the next 2 months...
My body changed visibly in weeks. I felt clearer mentally & physically than I ever had in my life& a year later I was still attending every class. Matter of fact I only missed 6 total classes in a 14month period. When traveling for work I visit gyms even boxing gyms occasionally, I have yet to met an equal challenge to the work out regime I've become conditioned to from training at The Boxing Yard.
I highly recommend trying an entire month. The group is friendly, encouraging & helpful. No matter ones experience or endurance level the workout demands the body to respond & is among the highest burning calorie group workouts in this city & The Trainer frequently reworks the order of his routine where no one ever really knows what to expect except that punching , sweating, & an exhilarating high calorie burning workout are For Sure guaranteed.

Want to try one of the toughest workouts in Jacksonville? This is your place. I workout 2-3 times a week in a regular gym and I thought I was in decent shape. Completely humbled by the hour long session here. Made me realize I'm not in as good as shape as I thought I was. The yard is completely unassuming, grungy, hot and humid, beat up, ghetto, old school, and hidden off the side of the road in an old warehouse in springfield. Perfect.
Monday through Thursday from 6pm - 7pm and Saturday from 9am - 10am you get an hour long intense cardio workout with a mixture of different exercises that Hector will break you down with. Want to take a break or rest a little without being told to? Be ready because Hector will get on your ass immediately and get you going again!
These hour long sessions are a group fitness class that combines fundamental boxing techniques with calisthenic (bodyweight resistance) exercises to improve stamina, power, and tone. Expect a full-body workout through various boot-camp-style drills, shadowboxing, jumping rope, footwork, punching heavy bags, and abdominal exercises. Memberships consists of $10 drop-in, $99 monthly, or $299 for personal training.
It's a blast and I can't wait to train here more often. Lots of good people here in a friendly competitive environment where everyone wants to push themselves to the max. Don't worry if you've never boxed before.
Things to know and bring: Get a set of decent boxing gloves (I paid 40 bucks for mine and they work just fine - 16oz Title Classic gloves - I'm 5'10" 180lbs), hand wraps (not required but can help with the bags after repeated hitting), bring lots of water, bring a towel, yoga matt if you have one for the ab session at the end, good workout shoes, light workout clothes, come motivated, geared up to sweat, and ready to work your ass off.
