Doghouse Boxing is the first gym I’ve ever walked into and genuinely stayed, because the environment hits different. From the start it’s welcoming, patient, and genuinely supportive. No ego, no pressure, just real teaching and real improvement. Ferdi takes the time to coach properly, actually watches your form, and pushes you in a way that feels motivating instead of intimidating. And the people who train there make the space even better; everyone adds to the energy and creates a vibe that’s focused, friendly, and safe to grow in. It’s the kind of place where you can show up as you are, learn, get stronger, and actually enjoy the process. If you want a gym where you’re welcomed in, taught properly, and pushed to level up without the ego or attitude, this is the spot.
I have been training with Ferdi since 2022, He's a good man and he is talented in his boxing craft and is always looking to improve himself and others in the gym. The experience of training at Doghouse is interpersonal and unique and is something you rarely find in other gyms. I recommend training here if you are actually serious about becoming a better, more disciplined version of yourself and a good fighter.
Highly recommended for kids! My 12-year-old son has been going to Wanniassa with Mick a few times a week. Not only are we seeing physical changes but mental changes as well. When he has a tough day at school, the first thing he asks is to go to Doghouse. It’s now one of his safe spaces where he can feel there is always a community around him. We will be forever grateful to Mick for his guidance and support.
