Great, spacious gym with knowledgeable and dedicated trainers. I had the great experience of a one-hour session with Ronica, who was very patient and took the time to correct things I thought were minor that actually made an incredible difference. She cares deeply enough to take the time to explain difficult concepts and break them down until you understand them fully, which can be frustrating and would be something many trainers would overlook for the sake of moving through the session. Whether you are boxing for professional or recreational purposes, I highly recommend Ronica for the perspective she can give you to take it more seriously and be your best version of yourself in the gym or ring. I learned a lot from just one session.

Such a great experience training in this world class gym for my birthday on boxing day 2025. The love for the sport is at the heart of this gym, and it shows in everything they do and how well the place is kept. It was a great honour to train with Coach Hassan who is a dedicated man with a great passion for his work in boxing. I brought my two boys over from the UK and we were made to feel at home straight away. Thank you Gleasons for such an unforgettable experience of a lifetime ❤️ 🥊

Great gym that is a must visit if you have any interest in boxing. I really enjoyed training here. The staff are great and the gym had a great mix of people training from pro's to beginners So much history to take in when you have a breather in-between rounds.

This historic boxing gym is one of my favourite places to train whenever I’m in town. The trainers are friendly, highly knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping you improve. There’s no blaring music here; just the raw sounds of boxing: gloves hitting the bag, heavy breathing, and the rhythm of hard work.

I’ve been training and fighting out of Gleason’s for two years. The gym has a program called “Veterans in the Ring,” that provides free membership for Veterans. This is my second home. The name “Gleason’s” demands respect and for good reason. It’s the home of Champions.
