BLUF: EVERY FIGHTER HAS A THEME SONG. BOOM BOX boxing club provides music driven boxing structured workouts that will have you in the BEST shape of your life!

EZ EXPERIENCE: In college and even after, the thing that excited me the most about going to the club was the DJ. If I knew the DJ was going to be fire, I would be in that club all night because ultimately music can make or break your experience.

Going to a workout @boombox_boxing club is like going to the club, but for fitness! I think we can all agree that finding the motivation to workout is difficult, but if you know you’re about to do an intense workout, listening to your favorite songs while doing it makes it that much easier.

@boombox_boxing the coaches are your DJs. They carefully construct playlists filled with beats that will take your mind off the fact that you’re working out, and just help you focus on having fun while you improve your technique and elevate your fitness. Each punch, each step, each defensive move flows with the tunes.

THE WORKOUT: Each class is 50 minutes where you are either BEAT boxing or BOOM boxing. One focuses on boxing to the beat, the other (while still music infused) is more focused on time and interval, giving you the freedom to move at your own pace. This is a full body workout! Every move requires the use of your legs, core, and upper body. In addition to the boxing, they incorporate active rests (which could be anything from pulsing squats, to tuck jumps, or burpees), and each workout has a section dedicated to strength and conditioning and core work. On average (if you put in the work) you will burn anywhere from 600-800 calories.

THE COACHES: One thing I absolutely abhor is getting trained by inexperienced personnel. If you can’t do it, you can’t teach me! You WILL NOT feel this way @boombox_boxing club. Their coaching team is diverse in gender, ethnicity, and personality! I mean can I just highlight the fact that they are stacked with women who box!! Like really box!! YASSS!! That is what you will find at Boom Box. The entire coaching staff has been subjected to months of rigorous professional boxing training from instructors spanning from L.A. to D.C. Their training is dynamic, consistent, and perpetual which means @boombox_boxing you will always receive THE best training!

THE STUDIO: Of all the contemporary D.C. boxing studios, this is the only one that has an actual boxing ring! The club is boutique and upscale, but it also has an authentic flare provided by the boxing ring, the garage door entrance, and the graffiti wall. When you walk into the studio it tells you two things: 1. You’re there to box and 2. You’re going to have fun while doing it!

EQUIPMENT & ATTIRE: Water bottle, gloves and wraps if you have your own (but they also provide these items), energy, and change of clothes. No, but really, you WILL sweat! No one leaves these classes dry, NO ONE!

Co-Founders Reggie “Jefe” Smith and Angela “aj_boomin” Jennings

THE FINALE: Listen, I am NOT a boxer! I repeat, I am not a boxer! I am goofy, I have two left feet, my legs move like giraffes, and my wrists prefer to stay bent, which is not conducive to punching anything! Lol. Yet, none of that mattered once I started working out @boombox_boxing club. The only thing that mattered is that I wanted to get better, and Boom Box provided the place, the workout, and the coaches who had the know how to help me do just that!

I try to be consistent with my fitness, but I can honestly say that once I started doing Boom Box workouts it took my fitness to another level. Every time I get in front of a bag, I leave my heart and soul (in the form of sweat) in the studio. When i walk out, I walk out knowing I’m just a jab, cross, hook, and uppercut away from being that much closer to my fitness goals! THIS is the workout you are missing and the workout you don’t want to miss!
