If you're serious about boxing, Maxwell is the place to be. What drew me in was their USA Boxing certification, but what kept me here is the community. The coaches and gym goers are respectful and empowering. I am complete novice and never once did I felt like I was in someone way or out of place.

The team and atmosphere is amazing here. I've only gone to their trial class, but I already felt a part of the family community. Alvin, one of the co-owners, was my coach for the session. He was hands-on, helpful, safe, and above all, created a fun space to learn boxing fundamentals. Even those who were more experienced, just working out in the gym, helped us noobs out and offered pointers and feedback. Thank you so much, definitely will be back!

I was new to San Diego and this place made this foreign city feel like home. I love the hard work and dedication all the coaches put into this gym especially Coach Alvin and Sherman. I see these two every time I'm there without fail, and they train their students with so much heart and grit. Even though times are tough right now, they strive to find new and innovative ways for the community to continue to grow and work out. They even offered free virtual boxing classes at the start of the pandemic! If you're looking for a sense of community and an excellent place to work out and learn

Could not speak more highly of this gym or make a better recommendation for kids and adults wanting to be fighting fit, especially during this pandemic. Coach Sherman and team have always demonstrated upmost consideration and respect for gym members, as well as the entire community, and are doing a great job of creating a safe space and environment for people to achieve their fitness and health goals.
