The owner is there to greet you and welcome you with a handshake. It was my first time ever boxing and I was nervous about entering in a boxing gym, but those nerves quickly disappeared as the owner made me feel as though he had known me for years. It's a small gym, with enought equipment though, but that is great because it has a personal feel to it. He asked what I wanted from the workout and I told him that I was looking for self defense and a great workout and he tailored a workout for me for those purposes and made sure that I did everything correctly but never pushed me more than I could handle. He just started the gym about a year ago but you can tell it's his passion. He understood that I was a beginner and treated me with respect and answered any question that I had. His training classes are great and really get your heart rate going with a non-stop pace that will surely show results quickly. It's like having a personal trainer and all you pay for is the membership fee on a monthly basis. There is no contract so you don't feel obligated to go to the gym but I gurantee that once you go you won't want to stop. When I left I felt like I accomplished something, loss weight, and had fun doing it and overall felt like a made a new friend. Rick (the owner) is right next to you doing the workouts so that you don't feel that you are the only one doing it. His interest are to make sure that you are ok and doing it correctly.
Pros: Great equipment, no one harassing you and trying to get your phone number, everyone there is there to workout, great atmosphere and great owner
Cons: none at all
