worst sparring culture out of all the gyms ive been at and got concussed and yelled at by the coach for missing 2 days due to university and work, was told to choose that or commit to the gym
Great Place to learn self defence and self confidence over all love it
Loved the cougar gym and the people in it. Such a great place to learn the sweet science. I spent 4 years working with the late great Paul Hortie and his amazing staff of coaches. This was in the mid 80’s Glad to see it’s still running so strong!!!
Cougar's boxing gym has the title of not just being the oldest but also one of the best boxing gyms in the city. On my first day, i vividly recall one the coaches, Vincent, who (while assessing my footwork) respectfully acknowledging and correcting my imperfect form, he then leaned in and said, "we'll fix that footwork and then we're going to make you a champion". Since then, all the coaches have gone above and beyond to make this statement a tangible reality for anyone who steps foot in that gym, should they be willing to put in the work. I highly recommend this gym to anyone who wants to learn the rich and longstanding history surrounding this establishment, for anyone who wishes to challenge themselves and become better, for those who want to meet and be surrounded by friendly and ambitious goal-driven individuals and for anyone who just wants to get in shape. #GoCougars
