Aztlan Boxing Gym

I cannot recommend this place highly enough. It is a real deal boxing gym. It’s not the kind of gym where everybody stands in a group and does punches in the air at the same time with a teacher at the front of the class telling you what to do for 30 minutes, with TVs in every corner and air conditioning.
This is hot, no AC, old school boxing gym with a retired pro boxer giving you one on one lessons every time you go in there. No matter how many people are there, which is never a ton, you get at least 30 min to 1 hour with the coach.
You will definitely lose weight and get in shape fast. It’s a quick learning curve but fun and fairly simple. Everyone there is super nice, feels like a team, and the owner Jose is a really nice and funny guy with a lot of knowledge.
And you will never find a place like this for a cheaper price. $ 160/​month gets you 3 2hour classes a week. And he will work you out. I recommend it and don’t be intimidated to go in there. It’s a tiny place with really nice people and a lot of beginners, out of shape people (me included), and amateurs in there.
Just do it and go there.

Jose Vasquez is the guy that owns this place. one of the very few boxing gyms were the trainer works with you one on one, instead of just having a class. Everyone gets atleast 3 rounds in the ring with Jose, the trainer. You are training like a pro athlete. You will see not only your body change within 6 – 8 weeks (if you eat decent) but your boxing skill level improve tremendously. Jose is crazy guy, and quite a character. It’s been a while since I’ve been there, but if I were to choose a boxing gym in Houston, Aztlan is where I would go.
