10/10 place!! Loved it so much and will definitely be back. The coach/instructor kept the energy high. Loved the atmosphere was perfect. Parking is a little right but overall it's worth the trip. read more

BOOMBOX Boxing Club - Boxing class room - Boxing Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

BOOMBOX has it all--great music, fun instructors and a really friendly community. I've been to 2 classes now and can easily say that this will be my workout of choice if I need a cardio and strength training workout in DC. I highly, highly recommend taking Reggie's classes. They're well balanced and not too fast. Here's a little more information about my experience at the studio. Transportation: They're not very far from the metro in Navy Yard and also there is parking within the neighborhood with 2 hours of free parking if you're driving and don't mind a little walk. Ambiance: If the music in the lobby doesn't get you hype, the music inside of the studio will. I love that they have garage doors that open out to the street. It makes you just want to stop in if you're walking past. They have lockers that are easy to work and have a lock on them. A sweet touch is that they have song lyrics from artists like Biggie inside of the lockers. Class Experience: Love that they have red lighting inside. It allows you to zone out and focus on your workout. It was easy to see the instructor since they're on a stage at the front of the room and they also have their programming projecting on the wall so that you can follow. The class includes hitting the bag, some strength training/cardio/core, then some more boxing and stretching at the end. They offer classes on Classpass but honestly you might as well just sign up for a membership because you're going to be hooked (pun intended) read more

Boombox is one of my favorite places to work out. The energy is always high, the music is great, and the coaches know how to push you in a motivating, fun way. Every class feels like a full experience, and I leave feeling stronger and accomplished. The vibe is welcoming for all fitness levels. If you want a workout that challenges you, and keeps you coming back, this is the spot! read more

Really enjoy this place, always clean and classes start on time. Would like more variety of class start times to accommodate all schedules, but besides that is great. read more

I left the 9am Sunday morning class 30 minutes ago and still feeling the adrenaline!! It's something about the dim lighting, supportive coach, and poppin' playlist that really works for me! My Apple Watch saying I burned more than 500 calories is just an added bonus! Absolutely absolutely recommend trying a class with Reggie! And even the ladies at the front desk are sweet and one even helped me wrap and put on my gloves my first class. read more

A Great time was had! I love supporting black owned businesses. Great decor and our names were on the black board when we came in. Staff very friendly and accommodating. Please make sure you are on time as the class starts promptly. A few places for photo ops but this is an intense workout. I would say intermediate to advance. read more

BOOMBOX Boxing Club - Boxing Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I've been meaning to try this place for quite some time and glad I was able to stop in today! It's a new studio in this area and you can tell a lot of detail was put into the studio design and operations. I love how the BOOMBOX theme is carried throughout the facility. They offer towels and those cool lockers that don't require a physical lock but lets you put in a 4 digit code to lock your things during class (like the ones at the fancy Orange Theory gyms) The class itself was great! Incorporated boxing techniques, some strength training, a bit of cardio and a core workout. It was a great way to start my Friday as I'm trying to incorporate different activities into my workout routines. Please Note: there are no onsite showers so plan accordingly. Not enough to take it down a star for me because I was planning to go back home anyway, but something to keep in mind. Overall: great experience! Great workout! excited to see this organization continue to grow and expand. read more

I wanted to write an updated review after completing 15 classes: 9 classes with Jefe - best and clearest instruction, encouraging and each class has been different 4 classes with David - high energy, fast-paced, fun 1 class with AJ - it was a small group class focused on strength training, less boxing than normal classes 1 class with Lauren - discouraging, judgmental, aggressive, expect to feel like an absolute failure Lately, classes with Jefe have had a waitlist and then the waitlist is full so definitely book in advance! He gives the clearest instruction and demos each move/combo. I also love the variety of music he plays to keep it upbeat and dynamic. You can easily burn 300-500 calories per class without it ever feeling like it. After taking classes consistently I've noticed a huge difference in my stamina, reflexes and overall conditioning. If you're looking for a workout that encompasses boxing, strength and core training into a 45-50 min class, this is 100% for you! read more

Currently laying on the couch recovering from myy amazing workout this morning with Angela! What. A. Workout! The studio is high energy from the moment you walk in the door throughout the entire class! The front desk staff got me checked in quickly and I hung out in the lobby until class started. It's clean and cute, with a boxing ring right out front, lockers, and 2 bathrooms. The class itself was a mix of boxing and HIIT! About 6 different boxing techniques were incorporated into the class, paired with lunges, squats, ab work, etc. It was really fun and a good combination of activities. Definitely give this studio a try. Easy to book online and purchase classes. Clean studio. Fun staff. Guaranteed good workout! read more

I absolutely love BOOMBOX and the team of passionate individuals that work here. After moving to the neighborhood, I received an email about a one-week punch pass deal, which included wraps to keep and free boxing glove rentals for $39. This was a great deal and I was happy to have concluded the week with 4 intense workouts and a membership! Immediately I started noticing the difference in my physique and overall energy level. The classes are a full body workout, including strength training with body weight and kettlebells. Usually, I take classes led by Reggie "Jefe", Angela "Aj" and Michelle "Meech". They're always great with feedback, encouragement, and ensuring you have the correct form. If you're looking for an intense workout with great music, BOOMBOX is the place to be! Best investment I made moving to Navy Yard! read more

Really awesome boxing experience! Amazing instructors, high energy, great music (they really put the boom in boxing lol) and very affordable class options. Boombox has a lot of special discounts, special events and giveaways as well. I also really appreciate the community of folks that attend regularly. Only downsides are the parking, especially during events at the National Stadium, there's no shower and there aren't a lot of daytime class options during the week (which Id prefer since so work from home). read more

BOOMBOX Boxing Club - Boxing Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

What. A. WORKOUT!! From the music to the instructors I've have a blast every time I step into the room. Each class starts with a quick lesson on the boxing stance and the various punches/defensive moves. It's not just about hitting the bag though. After a few "rounds" there is a breakout for core, strength, cardio, or a combo of the three. I love ending the 50min class with the Championship round, because I definitely feel like I won something just surviving class. Lol Lockers are available and two bathrooms. Wraps available for purchase and gloves you can rent. I eventually got my own gloves to bring with. Check it out!! read more

BOOMBOX Boxing Club - Boxing Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

This is the workout you didn't know you needed! I've taken two classes now and will definitely be a regular. Classes are 50 minutes, in a dimly lit room with neon mirrors all around. The bags are water filled and the instructors stage is in the front. They are miced up and whatever sequence you're doing is projected up front also. You have to buy wraps and can rent or bring your own gloves. Regardless of which instructor is teaching, you'll get a mixed and intense stregnth, cardio and endurance workout with AMAZING beats the whole time. Kettle bells and resistance bands are woven in also. You don't have to know anything about boxing- I certainly don't- and you'll have fun while burning calories. Parking is tricky so show up early to give yourself time or take the metro, it's a 3-5 minute walk from Navy Yard station. I came for a bachelorette party and a morning workout so far. It's hip, modern, clean and full of warm, down to earth, authentic vibes. The owners, staff and instructors are super talented and professional. $30 for a class is worth it as you'll feel like you're part of a great community. As the navy yard continues to grow, I'm glad this is an anchoring business. PS: book Angela's class! It's the best! read more

Words cannot express how much I enjoy BOOMBOX. It is conveniently located near the Navy Yard metro. Finding parking is a little challenging but I can usually find a spot for the morning classes. The club is spacious and clean. The actual fitness room is a decent size as well. I usually choose bag #9 because it's close to the instructor podium (I like to see). I appreciate how each instructor describes the boxing positions before class. It's a great reminder. I've only been to three instructors. I enjoyed Angela and Reggie's classes. You can tell they're boxers and are great with hands on assistance. The music sounds like it's coming from a BOOMBOX. The sound system is awesome. Recommend purchasing a class pack. If you haven't boxed, it may take a class or two to get the hang of the flow of class. read more

Did a workout here with my girls and we loved it! Took a class with Angela. Music was beyond dope and her energy was on 10. Definitely kept me engaged even when I was getting tired. The workout kicked my tail, but it felt SO good. Felt like a great full body workout that was more than just boxing. I am looking forward to coming back! read more

Absolutely love Boombox Boxing Club. I'm always looking for a new fitness challenge and the workout at BoomBox has exceeded my expectations. I have taken a few classes with Imani and I have enjoyed each one. The workout is challenging, the trainer is both fundamentally sound (when it comes to boxing technique) and definitely knows how to get the heart rate up during cardio rounds. And just when you think you can't possibly do one more combo or burpee (with a push up), Imani is right there at your bag to hype you up and get you through!! The music... #fightclubmeetsnighclub BoomBox will continue to be an integral part of my fitness journey. read more

27 classes down and no sign of stopping. I've been going to Boombox Boxing since November! I've bounced around studio workouts for years (OTF, Barre3, cycling, etc.) and could never stick to a workout because i'd get bored and feel stagnant. Boombox is an awesome cardio/strength workout. The coaches explain steps at the beginning of each class and provide clear instructions. Each coach has different styles of how they teach class and all are incredibly friendly and welcoming! I did two class packs and have since upgraded to their 8/month membership which works for me. I do hope the add more classes as their clientele grows! read more

BOOMBOX Boxing Club - Boxing Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

BOOMBOX boxing is my new favorite workout! It's challenging, fun and the music is BOMB. I leave every class dripping in sweat and feeling like I got a good well-rounded workout. Lots of cardio, strength and endurance. Angela and Reggie are great, motivating instructors. I think I've been to at least one class with most of the other instructors - they all have their own teaching styles, but a good workout is guaranteed if you commit to doing the work and being present. Come through and bring a friend!!! read more

Where to begin? Let's do pros & cons. Pros: 1. I loved this workout. 2. I enjoyed the facilities. 3. The coaches were great. 1. So yeah. Really enjoyed the format of these workouts. I used to workout pretty regularly to maintain my weight loss, but then COVID hit, I moved, and basically sat on a computer chair/couch and ate carbs for a year straight. I was so ready to get back into working out after being fully vaccinated. I signed up for the week introductory pass and love what BOOMBOX has going on. The music, the pacing, so encouraging to someone used to being sedentary. I love hitting the bags the most but I love that the instructors incorporate more than just that. In one week I used kettlebells and bands, and did body weight strength exercises during each class. It's total body and challenging. I can't wait to see how I improve after I keep returning. 2. The facilities are kept clean. It IS a small studio which to some may be a con, to me it makes me feel less intimidated and more a part of the community. ‍ The studio itself is dark and lit like a lounge. The bags are numbered so you never have to have anxiety about getting a spot. The spot is there once you book! 3. I took classes with David, Reggie, and Aaron in studio and Cobra at RFK. (I didn't enjoy the RFK workout that much but largely because I HATE outdoor workouts in general. They're not for me. Lol.) All of the coaches were great though. They had infectious energy without hovering and calling you out for not being as on point as the rest of the class. I appreciate that in a trainer. Cons: The only location is far from me. It's in SE-Navy Yard right around the corner from Nats. Easy skip from the train though. Not their fault that I live so far. Not that many class times are offered. I am hoping they start offering another evening class. Might be too big of an ask, but I can only make the 6:30 class if I book it as soon as I close my laptop. Again, not Boombox's fault but something to consider in the future. A late evening class. Know before you go: No on-site showers. NBD for me as I go in the evening, but FYI in case you want to go before work in the AM. read more

Wow what an amazing concept, an intense workout that makes you feel like a badass! Took a quick trip to DC from Nyc and had to check this place out, it did not disappoint! It has a really high end boutique feel but is warm and welcoming. The trainer Reggie had awesome energy and made sure everyone was having fun and working hard. The studio had a real community vibe and everyone was mingling before and after class which was nice. Will be back next time I'm in town. read more

Imani's Sunday morning class was like church for my body! I can't wait to go back. You'll need wraps and gloves, lots of water, lockers are provides for free. Gloves and wraps are available to buy. You can also rent gloves. read more

Toady was my first time here and it was awesome. The instructor, Angela, is super dope. She kicked my ass without even touching me.. lol I loved how this class had a bit of everything going on working every muscle in your body. Although I couldn't keep up and had to take a rest here and there I really enjoyed it. read more

Honestly, one of my favorite places to be. You get a killer workout each and every time. Each coach has their different styles, all bringing lots of energy. What I really like is the fact that I'm learning actually boxing moves and not just slap boxing a bag. The music is always on point and keeps you motivated to push through. The owners, Angela and Reggie are super humble and are extremely passionate about what they do. There's nothing but good vibes from everyone at the gym. And anyone can join no matter your fitness level. So happy I found this place. read more

BOOMBOX Boxing Club - Gear...towel service included. - Boxing Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

LOVE this kickboxing class! Dark room, loud music, mirrors to see your form (or just to remind you to keep moving!), and really motivating instructors. I love that the class works for all levels - I hadn't been to a workout class in over a year due to covid and they helped me get back into it. Great energy to keep you motivated, and constantly changing movements to keep it interesting. They move just fast enough that you don't get tired of one move, but not so fast that it's hard to keep up. Highly recommend! read more

I'm back with an update! In March I was desperately searching for something to mix up my at home fitness and yoga instruction routine but I was apprehensive about working out at any gym or studio. I remembered the great workouts I had at BOOMBOX during the summer at the Union market rooftop and decided to give them another try. I signed up for the 1-week punch pass and after 3 workouts in that week I was hooked. I now have a monthly package and I love coming here. First of all it is CLEAN (like clean clean) and they are following all sanitation protocols (&then some) which I appreciate. I also think everyone is extremely friendly (coaches, staff, & patrons) and very responsive. Lastly, it's a great workout (I burn between 420-500 calories each session). I've tried classes with almost everyone (I do have my favorite coaches but everyone is good at what they do) & the music is everything. Definitely check BOOMBOX out if you have not, they just keep getting better! read more

I absolutely love Boombox! If you're like me and hitting things is cathartic, this is the spot for you!The classes are super fun, great playlists and theme classes, and they torch calories. They best part is they have a fantastic community of staff and fellow gym goers that make it a fun environment for all bodies and fitness levels. I particularly love Reggie and David's classes but I haven't been to a class I didn't like. Highly recommend! Added bonus: supporting a local Black-owned business! read more

I had my first class at BoomBox Boxing with Angela and it was amazing! It was the first time that I've ever taken a boxing class but it was such a. Great experience. Though the workout was intense and Angela pushes you, its very doable and makes you extend your fitness limits. I left the class feeling energized and in love with my physique. It made me feel like accomplished something. I will say be sure to grab a towel (they offer free towels) because you will work up quite a sweat and sometimes you have to get down on the floor (I'm kind of a germaphobe). If you don't have boxing gloves or wraps you can rent them form the studio for $12 total. I'll deff be back! read more

I've been here 3 times in 1 week! The staff is friendly, workout is intense (in the best way possible) and the place is beautiful. Stop by here if you want to shake your fitness regimen up. Great workout! Plus the music is bomb. read more

Stumbled upon this gem by walking in the neighborhood. Googled the place and scrolled through the website and I found the promo for first timers. It's 2 for $30 and I love when these types of options are available, just Incase the gym isn't for me. Initially coming in thought "I got this" I was in for a real awakening. The class was intense and it was the longest 50 min, ever!! Especially when you're out of shape. It is a real workout and I plan to return. If you are questioning joining or taking a class, don't!! Just GO! read more

I'm a sucker for the details. Walking in, the ambiance, cleanliness, the friendliness of the staff, the bathroom, the towels, the boxing gloves, the hand wraps, the music choices, instructors and the light show all make you feel welcomed and planned for. My husband is a boxing trainer and occassionally trains me fir fitness purposes. So, I have some knowledge, but, this class was boxing training on steriods!! The classes are affordable, intense and very informative using boxing, calisthenics and aerobics. You feel pushed, but not beat up or left out. This was my first class but definitely not my last. I would definitely recommend Boom Box!! read more

So. Much. Fun. I really enjoyed my boxing experience at BoomBox. The music was great and the coach's high energy was exactly what I needed. It was a great change of pace from my normal workout routine. I wish the gym was closer/there was more parking around #dcproblems, but I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to try out boxing and or who wants to try out a fun workout class. I can't wait to go back. read more

The workout was amazing, good music and good coaches. The front staff was a little touch and go but they didn't ruin the experience.

The best boxing gym in DC! Instructors are great, vibes are always right, playlists make you forget how hard you're working. I highly suggest Boombox for all. You'll leave feeling stronger for sure. read more

Update: the more I come to these classes, the more I like them! They continue to change with every session, so they never get boring or repetitive. And, with the combination of strength and boxing rounds, each class in itself passes quickly - normally with fitness classes I am waiting out the clock, can't wait for it to end, but that's not the case here. Overall, big thanks to the BOOMBOX team! read more

I've really enjoyed classes at BOOMBOX. The facility is clean and organized, which I really appreciate. Everyone is super friendly and welcoming, sometimes taking classes can be so overwhelming but I felt so comfortable. After I finished my "one- week punch pass" I signed up for a membership right away and now I'm addicted lol. The classes are very upbeat, the music is awesome, and get ready to burn! It's been so much fun, words cannot express how amazing it feels to find a place and classes that make being active so enjoyable. I'm very thankful! read more

This place is great. I love working on with Reggie! The works out are high energy and quick. You feel really good leaving this place.

If you're even considering trying out boxing or are looking for any new workout, go to BOOMBOX. You will not regret it. The classes are designed to give you maximum results while having a great time to the music. Every coach is phenomenal and while the classes are all structured in the same way (warm-up, shadow boxing, bag work, strength & core, more bag work), the coaches put their own spin on things like the playlists and combos. I suggest BeatBox classes for newbies and BoomBox if you want the space to work on your technique or at more of your own pace. I take both, just depending on my schedule. Also, get the app so you can book your bag on the go. Makes life easy. If you're looking for a great workout and an amazing community that will pull you in without judgement, this is the place for you. Really. Just trust me on this. I went on opening day and haven't stopped. read more

I really enjoyed myself here! Everything was very clean and the music was very helpful when trying to keep up with the cadence of the workout. If you're not used to working out then it may be a challenge keeping up so keep that in mind. If you are, expect a strenuous workout but not to the point where you're burnt out and cant continue. It was a mix of boxing and HIIT which I enjoyed! The establishment is conveniently located by the navy yard metro and its also black owned! Everyone was friendly and the motivation level was high I didn't feel out of place. I highly recommend giving this spot a try! I have nothing negative to say read more

BOOMBOX has a unique blend of talented coaches, functional space, energizing playlists and fighters who enjoy each other while promoting accountability. Training here is one of the best health and lifestyle decisions for those who are serious about conditioning and calorie burn. The programming evolves, yet remains true to the reason fighters show up every day - punching a bag to thenbeatbof great music. The staff is expert, knowledgeable and friendly. The restrooms are stocked with just about every personal hygiene product fighters could need to cool down, freshen up or sanitize. If you want a gym experience that's welcoming, not intimidating, and gets the endorphins flowing, BOOMBOX is the spot. I'm looking forward to more exciting class offerings from BOOMBOX. read more

Amazing boxing studio with great vibes! From the moment you walk-in and happily greeted to the time you walk out from just becoming an victorious Champion of your workout you will love every bit of it! Also the aesthetics are absolutely fitting and worthy of a Instagram picture and tag! read more
