Today was my son’s first time attending the free first class at Sam Colonna’s Boxing Gym in Dyer, and he came home saying, “Mom, you gotta sign me up — I need that!” 😄 The coaches were motivating, the environment was energetic, and you can tell they truly care about the kids learning discipline and skill. It’s hard to find a place that pushes you while keeping it fun, but they’ve got it down! We’re definitely signing up; highly recommend! 🥊👏🏾
I went for my first free class and I honestly enjoyed it at first I was bit nervous going alone not knowing anyone but ones I got in there I felt very welcomed and felt at home seeing other fighters as my self felt so good
I trained with Sam Colonna when I was fighting, he inspired me to open my own gym. Boxing is so much more than just a sport—it’s a powerful tool for building character, discipline, and confidence, especially in our youth. It teaches respect, perseverance, and how to channel energy in a positive way. Whether you're training to compete or just looking to grow mentally and physically, boxing offers a structure that transforms lives. I’ve seen firsthand how stepping into the ring can shape someone’s future for the better. Salute to every gym out there putting in the work to guide and uplift the next generation through the art of boxing!
FOR PEOPLE LOOKING FOR CLASS HOURS/DAYS: Classes are great, the coaches help with every small detail. It’s really cheap as well with a military discount 80$/mo. I’m signing up now. Their website is not updated so decided to post this for everyone Update... changing my review to 3 stars. I enjoyed their classes initially but I began to lose interest in the material they taught. The instructors are knowledgeable but due to group classes it's not too involved. It's mainly cardio for 20 minutes and techniques for 20 mins and then stretching for 10 minutes. It's good for beginners but I'm joining a different gym now.

Building champions in the ring and in life through disciplined boxing training.
