Jim Eagle Boxing

I’m torn about writing this review. Jim is one of those hidden gems in SF. I’ve checked out some of the more well known boxing gyms and granted the classes looked like you would get a great workout but I saw too many people basically flailing instead of punching correctly. Jim takes real care in teaching you how to punch and the basics of boxing but at the same time giving you an amazing workout.
The other thing I love is Jim is not you’re typical boxing trainer. He’s at a very REAL boxing gym where legit boxers train and spar but he’ll take you in and train you at your pace. I first trained with gym at another tiny gym and since then I’ve had a knee surgery and a hip surgery. He’s been accommodating and knowing that has adjusted my sessions. My wife used to train as well and we both loved it. My wife stopped since she wanted to try Cross Fit but since she got pregnant she’s started up with me again. She’s able to train at her pace but still get a good workout.
There’s a reason that we’ve stuck with Jim for more than two years. His new location is very SF meaning it’s near 16^th and Mission. Don’t let it deter you seriously. I used to play hoop 3 to 4 times a week and this is now my only outlet for an intense workout. The other Gyms are too big in terms of class size that can accommodate my needs and limitations.
Training is a 5 stars!
Location is 4 stars since you might have to circle for parking but hey it’s SF. The worst I’ve had to do is park a couple blocks away. It’s not so bad.

I am now training at World Class Boxing gym conveniently located on Mission Street
between 15^th and 16^th in San Francisco. A block away from the 16^th BART station.

Sparring and hitting bags happens here! It all begins with technique.
Then movement and defense. We then put it all together to get a strong, quick and smart fighter.
After boxing training, we continue with core, strength and endurance exercises.
