Truly one of the best gyms I have ever been to. I belonged previously to another boxing gym in the area where I felt the criticism was inconsistent based on the instructor and decided to switch. At BBKA they provide you with many class variations, while providing fun, personable, reliable instructors. All instructors focus on your fitness, technique, while making you enjoy the sweat! Unfortunately, need to move out of the area and I'm sad to leave, but whatever gym I join next has big gloves to fill!

Hands down best workout for Kids and Adults-- a true Family Boxing Gym! Ken started an Autism Boxing Program that is not only a great workout but my son feels empowered and engaged! He looks forward to going every time!

I was hired here on a Monday and asked to come in the next day to see if I am able to sell memberships, the job listing I was hired for. After hiring me that Tuesday, saying I was "perfect for the job" he proceeded to ask me to come in that Wednesday- Saturday in the mornings, keep on mindin mind I was hired for evening shifts.
The owner, Ken, can come on too strong and the amount of work that was outlined to me kept including things I did not agree to. The following week he asked me to come in at 9am and it was 8 am. I was not hired for mornings but tried to be accommodating. This is not a business you want to work for especially if you require a structure for your workplace and believe the workplace should be a place of professionalism.

When I was hired he said I was pretty, but he's hired pretty in the past and it didn't workout. He also liked to compliment me on my physical appearance more than I would expect from a work environment. He's now refusing to pay me for my training because he says I am no longer entitled to that pay because I declined the position.

He messaged me a different schedule everyday, and because he does 1099 he likes to pay when he wants and what he wants.
Of course I will have to get my pay through a civil suit, but it shouldn't be like this. There's a reason he can't keep employees and why his sales team is non-existent.

We'll see each other soon Ken!

I've been attending classes at Bethesda Boxing since February 2018. I absolutely love this gym! I've taken classes with Ken, Julie and Rafael. I ALWAYS leave their classes feeling stronger and motivated. The instructors really care about their students and that is made very clear in the amount of individual attention they give to each and every individual boxer. Every friend I've brought with me has either returned for a second class or are planning on their next visit. Highly recommend Bethesda Boxing to any all people interested in Boxing and Kickboxing. You'll get an excellent work out and honestly feel like you could be featured as a Amazonian in the next Wonder Woman (or, maybe those are just my dreams, haha).

I started out at Bethesda Boxing & Kickboxing Academy 4 months ago. The owner Ken and his staff are very professional, accommodating and don't put any pressure to sell memberships. The coaches are super professional, motivating, and, despite their athletic achievements, are very friendly and approachable. I've enjoyed the boxing and kickboxing classes with Coach Greg and Coach Base a lot!
I also want to write about the new Trainer Mae and her amazing Functional Strength Training class. It is a very intense, structured, and lively class, taught by a fit, strong, graceful, motivating, and creative coach, who is attentive to students and gives clear instructions. It is perfect for women and men, who want to meet their fitness goals in a short time (along with nutrition guidelines). Very happy with BBKA's new professional addition. Highly recommend Trainer Mae's Strength Training as well as other BBKA classes!

I took the Saturday morning class with Base. I have been a member at other boxing gyms so I knew what I was getting myself into lol. But nonetheless, the class was great and it was very challenging! I felt every bit of it the next day! I am considering making this place my gym home.

I absolutly love Bethesda boxing and kickboxing academy. I have a very early class in the morning 4 times a week with one of the BEST trainers in the dmv...BASE. Early morning classes suck...who wants to get up at 5:45am to do any kind of workout but Base is always cheerful and full of jokes and make u feel like your just hanging out with a friend. My training sessions are intense but Base make you feel like you can do anything with a very gentle push. If the exercise is not working for you, he modifies, motivate and encourage. He is very accommodating...if I'm unable to make a session or need to come later in the day, he always find space for me to make up my session. I look forward to my workouts each morning...Thanks Base for being an awesome trainer!!!

I love Bethesda Boxing & Kickboxing Academy! I've been attending classes for two years, and I still consider them really tough workouts. The trainers, like Ken and Base don't let you get away with taking it easy--but they're also very motivating and like to play around while pushing you to your limits. If you're looking for an awesome workout near downtown Bethesda, I highly recommend coming in for a free trial class.

Bethesda Boxing is hands-down the best boxing studio for beginners, intermediate and advanced individuals who want to feel mentally and physically powerful. I attend classes three times a week, and always immediately look forward to the next. Ken, the owner, is fantastic and makes a point to know your name and you genuinely feel like part of the Bethesda Boxing family. Base is my favorite trainer, who always pushes you to your max, varies the workouts, is beyond helpful, and wants you to be your best self. You will thank yourself for signing up, I promise you!
