Gilbert Zaragoza is an amazing coach. My son was nervous about going back to boxing and in 3 weeks Mr. Zaragoza has my 11 year old son tuned up and looking really good. Boxing is a mental discipline and an amazing art. The tonality when Mr. Zaragoza coaches the men, women and youth that show up to learn this art is exactly what they need. He's stern and makes you pay attention (two things necessary for safety when engaging in physical combat). That is very much appreciated. I've been to gyms where the coach is nonchalant and soft and the people that come out of those gyms are also very soft. That isn't what you want from a boxing coach. I would recommend this gym to anyone looking for a solid boxing gym. No games are played, yet you still have an enjoyable time and an amazing skill practice and teaching. I've seen amazing skill increase in minimal amount of time my boy has been back here. God bless coach Gilbert Zaragoza and his friends and family. I'm glad my son is back to boxing and enthusiastic and excited about showing up to put that work in again. I'd give this gym 10 stars if I could.
Gilbert has great boxing knowledge and will skyrocket your skills. I've looked at many boxing gyms in Sac and if you actually want to learn and potentially fight this is the the place to go
Racist and rude Coach believe his name is Gilbert, a white guy with tattoos First things first i come to train in good spirit and have little knowledge about boxing. I signed a waiver and had the idea of maybe practice sparing, I asked the coach, and he said, "Do you know what a waiver is, ARE YOU EVEN A US CITIZEN?" I didn't say anything out of respect. But that bothered me a lot. He joked with the other guys and said look he doesn't know what a waiver is then said: "Just kidding." Then, as I was training with him on the pads, one of the guys in the group pointed out that i was right-handed, and the coach had to switch positions, the coach said " Do you want to train him? You think you can do better?" absolutely shutting him down. Then said "just kidding". Next, I was doing jump ropes and weights and talked to one of the guys there asking him a question. The coach got mad and told me to finish my set. In conclusion, I don't recommend this place, it has some hatred in it. And no, it's not the way I feel, nor do I want a refund nor a free class. I'm just speaking up for the guys that are just beginning. This was a very bad first impression. So coach Gilbert show some respect. Thank you.
I’m in my 30s and started going here to get back in shape + learn to box. Great place to go if you want that combo - learn how to box and get a good workout. Highly recommend for anyone who is looking to get / stay in shape but actually wants to learn the fundamentals of boxing (or improve current abilities).
I first heard about the gym from a friend, so I joined and started taking my two kids for classes and had a great experience. I bring them 3 times a week now regularly and both of my kids have lost a considerable amount of weight and they love their workouts and get very excited about coming to the gym. The owner Gilbert is a great trainer and he works very well with kids. I will be starting the adult classes myself shortly after my work schedule changes but I’m summary I would definitely recommend this gym for the adults and kids classes.
