TITLE Boxing Club Old Pasadena

This place is a 10+…The staff is absolutely amazing. I purchased a groupon with no plans to commit to any membership plan whatsoever. I usually workout at 24 Hour Fitness, but wanted to try something different to change things up a bit. However after a few classes, I decided to become a member. The classes are truly worth every penny. The workouts are intense, and you reeeeally feel it.
It is located in Old Town Pasadena, and the parking garage is just a few feet from the site. You get an hour and a half for free, which is great.
The instructors really do know what they are doing. They go the extra mile to ensure everyone is giving their best during the session, and getting our money’s worth. I’ve worked out for years, and I must say that is one of the most challenging workouts you can find. I HIGHLY recommend it to anyone who wants to get healthy and stay healthy and fit.

Love it here. Workouts kick my butt (in the best way possible) and I never get bored. Great combo of cardio and strength training. Plus, I feel like I am improving my balance and coordination. My fitness tracker tells me I burn upwards of 500 calories every session. Plus, they have upbeat music, fun trainers, and a neighborhood-​gym feeling atmosphere.

Title boxing is a great workout! It’s perfect for someone like me who gets bored easily. David’s classes are great for beginners but challenging enough for someone who is fit but just wants a good workout in. Glenn’s classes are great when you want to challenge yourself and bring on the pain! I’ve been coming here for almost 6 months and it is always fun and a great workout.

LOVE the workouts here. They totally kick my butt and I end up hurting everywhere the next day. It’s also a great way to release all the frustrations of the day. Especially after a bad day at work.
The owner and trainers are great. I’ve brought friends here for their free first class and they are never pressured into an awkward sales pitch. Even brought my coworkers for a team building event and they loved atmosphere. Definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a good workout.

Amazing! Just finished my first workout! Best workout ever and Joe was great with us newcomers!

This place is #1 !!! You get an intense full body work out and leave with the feeling of being a total badass! Definitely makes me excited to think about going back.
Remember to go at your own pace. The first class is physically the hardest but once you get the rhythm you’ll leave feeling like a new person.

I just moved to Pasadena from Nashville TN. I was worried about this title location not being as amazing as the title boxing in Nashville. After the first class I realized it was a non issue. If anything my experience at Pasadena title has been better than my experience in TN. There are several reasons for this.
First, the staff is not only friendly but genuinely welcoming. They treat you like buddies and not just like a client. It makes the environment more comfortable to work out in. There is no awkward gym moments where you stand in confusion.
Second, they really focus on technique. They encourage the «how do I do this?» Question. They really want to help you get the most out of this workout. I can honestly say my technique improved more in the first two weeks here than it did in the first two months back in TN.
Lastly, it is just FUN! The energy in the classes makes you work harder. You really will push yourself and leave proud of what you accomplish.
Go check it out! Your first class is free so there is no harm in just trying it! I promise you will come back for more!!!

Looking for an intense-​a** workout??? You’ve found your place.
If I lived nearby, I’d become a member easy. Their classes beat a gym session by far. They say 60 minutes burns around 1000 calories. A thousand, folks. Come here to punch it out, squat and lunge, plank, use the medicine ball and let them calories burn. Full-​body workout for sure. I’d love to come back for a round 2.
I went with my company and Title set us up with hand wraps and gloves and a mean 90 minute class. It wasn’t just with the bag either! We were doing all sorts of exercises non-​stop. The trainer kept us going strong.
The club itself is very well-​kept and clean and Fernanda was an enthusiastic and approachable employee. You can purchase your own colorful wraps for $ 6. Park at the Delacey garage next door, 90 minutes free then $ 2/​hr.
The first shot is free ! What are you waiting for!

This is the best workout to get out your anger. I was constantly sweating and every instructor I had motivated me to keep moving.
Some instructors gave direction out better than others. One guy went through all the combos in the beginning of the workout and expected us to remember them, instead of doing combos then adding on.
The place is clean and they have you wipe down your mat when your done with core exercises. I watched them clean the boxing gloves all the time after each session. The people at the front desk also help you put on your wraps and provide encouragement on the side while you workout.
It’s unfortunate that the prices for membership and classes are so high or I would join again in a heartbeat.

Everyone was so nice. Very helpful and encouraging. I started with a deal I found online and tried it. I’m the least active person you could possibly meet. I don’t work out, I don’t go to the gym, not even brisk walking! But then I wanted to try something new and decided to try kick boxing! At first I’m so scared (Oh yes! I’m possibly the girliest person too!). I don’t like violence, getting hit or being hit, and I don’t like sweating too. However, I just decided to check it out. I went to gym before purchasing any class and as soon as you walk in, everyone was so nice! And then I said to myself that this is the best possible start I could ever try. And so I did!
My first class was pretty difficult for me as I have never been active. But the instructor was very nice. They push you more than what you think you can, but do not push you beyond what’s not healthy for you. They understand that you’re a beginner and not as athletic as some people and it’s ok. It’s a very healthy environment and everyone is very nice.
Another plus is that you won’t spar with someone. You just hit the bags and the routines are very great. The one hour class is really maximized and very useful!
Second day, I took my boyfriend. We’re both not so active people, but the minute he walked in, he liked it immediately! And so, we found a new interest to share. It’s fun, it’s cool and a very nice work out! We love it!

Like many others I’ve taken advantage of the Groupon deal, $ 25 for unlimited classes for 2 weeks. So far, this place has been pretty perfect except for one point which I’ll address last. This place is pretty easy to find, especially if you park in the delacey parking lot (which is also free for 90 minutes and $ 2 for every hour after). It’s across the street from the 21 choices and the Tiffany’s. Kind of in the alley but if you exit through the lot, you’re RIGHT there. There’s also clear signage. Sign up is easy, you check in and that’s it, no pesky RSVPing for classes, etc.
Classes are very conveniently timed, after work around 6:15 — 6:30ish. Though there aren’t very many, some morning and mostly evening and a couple each day on the weekend, I thought it was enough. You do need to prepare your materials a bit, you definitely need a hand wraps and boxing gloves. You can rent boxing gloves I believe but they kind of smell like death so I recommend buying your own since they’re not that expensive. The hand wraps are $ 5.50 each and they have a variety of colors, and it’s cheaper than Amazon. For gloves I believe they sell some for about $ 30 (cheapest), I got some silly pink ones from Amazon because it was just under $ 20, but their prices change all the time so I don’t think it’s the worst idea to get it here.
My favorite instructor is probably Jared, some of the other instructors don’t introduce themselves or I’m too totally spent to notice. Either way, his is the only class where you are instructed to kick and learn combos that include kicking. You’re never hit in class, everyone has their own bag that they work with. The hour is begins with a cardio-​centric warm up that gets you sweaty AF, and then goes anywhere from 8 to 10 «rounds» where you’re doing kickboxing combos, and there are «active rest» periods where you do dynamic stretches and/​or cardio. After you generally get a mat (very cushion-​y which I love and is easier on your joints) and a medicine ball of your choice (I get the smallest one which is 8 pounds I think) and do workouts with core, etc. The exercises are super fun, different and engaging. I don’t think I would ever get bored.
The restrooms are really nice and clean, and include showers. There are lockers in the main area to the side so you can put away your stuff. DEFINITELY bring a towel, and a lotta water (though they do have water fountains). I usually go through a liter in one class.
The one star off is because I really wish that they offered deals where you could buy individual classes, instead of a monthly membership. My regular commute is 10 miles RT but for two weeks, to work out I drove an extra 20 miles each time. It eats up way too much gas and time to drive 1.5 hours just to work out. I would love to come back occasionally maybe once or twice a week and do other workouts nearer to me, but currently they only allow those with unlimited monthly memberships to attend. If that was fixed, I’d love to come back. Overall, the Groupon isn’t much of a risk so I would give it a shot, especially if you live near and need a DAMN good workout.

It’s killing me to give this place a 1-​star review but alas, I must. I bought the groupon for a 2 week pass. My first class with Glenn was great, I was so scared and intimidated but man I had so much fun! I had never boxed before and I was drenched by the time it was over. Then I took Jared’s class, equally fun but kickboxing to me is way harder (I have no coordination, none). So what’s the deal with being stingy on the stars? Here’s why:
2 classes in I got into a car accident and had a bit of whiplash. I had to take a week break and really missed out on using my class pass. I went to talk to Frank, the manager, and no matter what I said he wouldn’t extend me one week bc of the accident, I asked if I became a member if he would waive the enrollment fee as a courtesy since I wasn’t able use the pass and basically wasted money, the answer was still no. Even tho all that irked me, I get it, they have rules and are under no obligation to do anything for me. For all they know I could be making the whole car accident story up. The thing that just pushed me over the edge was what happened on what I thought was my last day to use my pass. I went to class and was told they no longer let you borrow hand wraps so I had to buy a pair even tho it was my last class! Then when I was leaving Frank was like ur two week pass expired yesterday but I let u work out today as a courtesy. Um ok wtf!!! Either tell me it was my last day yesterday up front and don’t let me work out, or just be nice and leave out the ‘I let u work out as a courtesy’ bs and just tell me today is my last day. But geez throw it in my face much??? Plus you made even more money on me buying the wraps so whatever! I could’ve avoided buying them esp for a class I wasn’t supposed to take! As much as I loved the workout, I can’t deal with childish, unreasonable ppl. Not only that but neither trainer ever really helped with my form which as anyone who works out will tell you, is the first step in maximizing a workout and preventing injury. So, as if it wasn’t clear enough, I won’t be going back to Title.

I came in here this morning at 8:30am class.
This is my first time so my boyfriend and I are sooo excited.
I came in here with sister, friend and my boyfriend so it’s like a work out/​a quality time for us.
The staff was soo nice.
The place is so clean and big.
They will provide you the gloves.
They have some weights, matts, balls with weights and etc.
Our trainer (I forgot his name) he has a big curly hair.
He was so nice and very energetic. He help was a bit fast but it’s ok because he would go to your side and teach you how to kick and punch.
Our first 15mins we were sweating like crazy already.
I like that we had a work out for our legs, butts and etc in between our kicking and punching. He gave us some couple breaks so we can catch up with our breath.
Overall I love the place and its fun! I want to be a member but I can’t commit. :(
I will definitely recommend this place to my friends and my family.
I would go back if I get a chance or a day off from work.
Great experience!
Something new for me!
Something fun too!
Thank you for saving us this morning and taking care of us.

I used a Groupon and I really enjoyed it! The facility was clean and well organized. The instructors were awesome. I love Glen’s class! So energetic and really gets you moving to go all out.
But the fees are way too expensive for the number of classes. There’s a $ 99 enrollment fee and then it’s around $ 100/​per month. It ranges from $ 110-​$ 89 a month depending on which package you get. And there’s only 1 – 3 classes a day.
Parking is also very annoying. There is a structure right behind the gym but it’s only free for 1.5 hours. So if you don’t time it right, you end up paying $ 2 for an extra 5 minutes. I mean it’s not much but it adds up.
My biggest disappointment was the owner. He seems annoyed and frustrated when you ask him questions. The way he talks to costumers is very condescending as well.
One time, I left my wraps in the car and I asked him if I could borrow a pair (b/​c they have wraps you can borrow) and he said they were trying to stop lending. But later, I saw him give a pair to another lady. Besides having bruised and bleeding knuckles, part of the whole boxing experience is putting on the wraps and the gloves and really engaging in the program, but nope. He did not give a toot.
The good thing is that they have a free trail class so you can try it out and be the judge! Everyone is great, except for the man who runs the place.

I thought Yoga will only give me a feeling of mental and physical challenge but I was wrong. Title boxing was awesome especially on Saturdays when you can do kick boxing too! I had a great time trying out their groupon for $ 25 for 2 weeks unlimited. If you are looking to try a Boxing club, definitely try this place out.

I don’t write reviews. But I had to this time. I bought the $ 25 groupon to Title Boxing. I liked it so much I told my aunt and my 2 cousins to buy the groupon too and they loved it as well! The classes are good and fun, coaches are pretty cool too. So, once our 2 week groupon was over we wanted to become members we decided that we should do the family plan because we are FAMILY. The manager decides that he needs valid paper work to show that we are actually family! Are you serious!!! What would you like to see? A photo of when my aunt was in the delivery room when I came out for her sisters vagina?!! Also, he did not want to assist us whatsoever in regards to the initiation fee. We would have to pay 4 initiation fees even though he said that he would wave that because we are doing the month to month plan.
Anyway, this place hired a dumbass to run it. And they obviously don’t care about their clients. I clearly liked this place enough to invite my family to try it out as well and for them to say they need proof, just bc we signed up w different addresses means we’re not family is CRAZY. Don’t come here unless you are ready to deal with the guy at the front desk questioning you. Plus, another downer is that you have to pay $ 2 every time you come for parking. Peace Out Title. You were cool until now.

Who knew I’d ever say boxing is a great workout! Great Groupon deal.
Plus: There’s cardio in between the boxing! Instructor David is bomb and teaches an awesome class! He’s even great at modifying the routine to fit my needs. …kicked my butt and felt so good! The staff are personable and nice!
Minus: After my 4^th class, to put it nicely, the owner was adamant about me purchasing a $ 4 towel, and amazingly super rude, after asking me for the FIRST time, after 4 classes, if I had brought one and almost wouldn’t let me take the class until I had said this was my last class (via Groupon). Unfortunately, it was never mentioned directly during the initial waiver, nor thereafter. I was seriously considering signing up as a member because of David’s class but I’m on the fence now… I had initially gave a 5 rating but the immensely negative interaction with the owner swayed my rating. I believe his name is Frank. …very, very poor business practice!
I will say though he is consistent, consistently rude. It’s kind of funny how two of my friends who also got the Groupon had the same negative experience with him but we all didn’t know until later.
Recommendations: bring a towel and take David’s class. He’ll work you out!

Count me in as yet another Groupon offer. I had a ton of fun in the two weeks here and am sad it’s coming to an end. I’ve only been able to try David’s boxing and Jared’s kickboxing class and both were intense and a lot of fun. I haven’t done bag work since some brief Muay Thai classes a few years ago and now I remember why I loved it so much.
Unfortunately, at this time I won’t be continuing due to a constantly rotating and inconsistent schedule at work– I won’t be able to guarantee consistently making classes.
If they ever offer «x classes per week» or pay per class count me in!

Boxing makes working out fun. All the trainers (David, Glenn, Jared) all offer up something different making each class a killer full body work out in it’s own right. They’re your personal cheerleaders while kicking your ass in every class. It’s great that everyone is super personable — including the owner, Frank :)
Just finished my two week Groupon — hoping to be back soon!

I was one of the many Groupon customers who also found Title to be x10000 times better than going to just a regular gym like LA Fitness. The classes are always changing and what you do depends on the trainer– some days they have a routine for you to follow, other days you’re just practicing various kicks/​punches. A majority of the visitors are from Groupon, but the classes are small enough that the trainers go around helping people with their forms individually.
As much as I would like to be a continuing guest, I could rationalize the monthly fee (~$ 60 to 90). For that money, you could find a gym that offers both boxing/​kickboxing classes AND other classes + weights + machines etc.
