This guy is utter scum Signed my son up, we have been gifted a family grant through a nonprofit since I'm fighting metastatic breast cancer He went ahead and decided on the time frequency and length of our membership, overcharged, which I would've never known had she not sent me the invoice, my son got injured and he wanted a doctors note and then when I asked him to transfer the membership to my daughter, he said it was against the law. That wasn't until he got a demand letter and then suddenly she could use it. We never attended a single class other than the trial. He actually went so far as to hire an attorney rather than just do the right thing and refund me my money since he lost nothing he lost nothing and somehow someway after getting multiple extensions from the courts, they cited with him, not even allowing me to present my evidence for my case when I'm the one who filed and paid for the small claims trial. Apparently, the magistrate thinks since the nonprofit handles the payments, I didn't lose out on $890 plus the $50 filing fee plus the money I spent to send him the demand letters He walked out of there like a little kid and a candy store how pathetic! I waited and told him wow you look so proud of yourself stealing from a young woman and her children when you lost nothing. Your own invoice states no refunds in the event the student stops attending classes before the six month timeframe elapses, funny thing is we never attended a single class other than the free trial! I never signed a contract. I never got any paperwork from him. I cannot believe what an utter scumbag this guy is, are you that hard up Gabriel must not be since you hired a lawyer instead of just being a decent human being and refunding me my money That's OK cause karma is a real biatch and you're gonna meet her real soon What goes around comes around and I don't like to wish bad on anyone, but this guy deserves everything he has coming to him Big tough guy MMA fighter with mush for a brain So disgusted, so disappointed in the entire system that people like him get away with robbing the most vulnerable [[HIGHLIGHT]]Please don't bring your kids to this guy and trust him with them, do not give him a dime without making sure you have everything in order if you are going to bring your children to him[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] People lick his butt because they think what he's like a rockstar or something? [[HIGHLIGHT]]I should've walked out of there the first day when he completely ignored me and then for payment, he gave me a business card and had me take a screenshot of his pricing[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Never signed a paper never got a contract never attended a class but he thinks he's entitled to keep $890 of mine Absolutely pathetic, if I could give him zero stars, that's what he would be getting this guy is just the worst. I'm actually going to reach out to the new station and see if they want to do a story on him. I'm also going to be looking into other avenues, such as filing a complaint with the city and the Better Business Bureau and anybody else I can. read more

Came here to watch Salinas Boxing Club spar and give my daughter moral support as she was also sparring in preparation for her professional fight next week This is a small gym with a big punch (ALL pun intended LMAO) Just big enough for the ring and punching bags That is all a boxer really needs in their lives Great decor inside and out. Looks like this gym has a lot of members, it was rather crowded in there Everyone was working out and seemed pretty respectful of each other's space Street parking and private parking available. read more

This is Redwood City's best kept secret! It's hidden away in a A-1/tow truck parkinglot but once if you make an effort to find it you'll be in the BEST SHAPE OF YOUR LIFE! If you want to get in shape this is where you need to go! I've referred a few members and they continue to stress how much better Gladiators is than their old gyms like 24, crunch, or powerhouse. You will not get this much individual attention anywhere else for such low rates! This has to be the best value for your money at any gym! (and i actually work at another local gym lol) I thought boxing gyms would be intimidating but they do an amazing job of making you feel at home and make a great effort on bringing you up to speed on technique so that your get the most out of your boxing workouts! it's a great place for kids and adults! Enough equipment and space to get your workout done without waiting around. After 6 months here I had my first amateur fight and won. It was by far the best feeling of my life and I'll be forever grateful for all the time and effort Gladiators boxing has put into helping me. Whether your looking to win Golden Gloves or simply just want to get healthy and fit, come in and you can try a workout! I'll be willing to bet you'll be addicted! read more

Gladiators Boxing Gym - Boxing Near Me - Redwood City, California

This was one of the first gyms I've ever been too, glad to see they're still around after more then a decade. Its a huge gym and the workouts are intense. They're all about toning up. I got some pretty good punches here. The location is cool, kinda hidden. I like the hours. Its a good respectable gym with quality training, I dig it. If you bike over bring your bike in the gym. I don't trust the fence outside my bike got snatched that way. THey straight cut around it ha read more

The best in town - perfect for all ages. Have my two teenagers in youth boxing. I myself did women's boxing and it was fantastic.

I've been coming here for several years. I look forward to coming in every day that I can. The workouts are great. Tony, the main coach and owner, is really cool and knowledgeable. My fitness has improved a ton. I've learned about boxing form and technique (always more to learn). I've made new friends and find the gym to have a great cast of characters. Highly recommend!! read more

Gladiator's is an outstanding gym that I highly recommend. Tony's classes were very intense and are an amazing full body workout all in about an hour. The classes are small, so the coaches are able to work with you personally on technique in the middle of class. Even during open gym, the coaches help you design a good workout on the bags so you can train on their own. Sparring is very well run, and the participants are always kept safe with the right equipment and supervision. The price is an extremely good deal. They don't limit the amount of time or classes a week. Overall Gladiators got me in great shape, is fun and motivating. It should be 6 stars. read more

The short and sweet: This was the first gym I ever went to and I was a complete newbie - I now get great workouts, awesome coaching, and get to punch things and people for fitness! The long version: The closest I've gone to a gym before Gladiators Boxing Gym was when I was 16 and tried out the treadmill on sale at Costco. I tripped and the machine sucked my fingers in and I got hurt. Not the most engaging of experiences. Ever since then I harbored a fear of gyms. Recently, I decided I wanted to learn a sport instead, and chose boxing after reading some manga about it. When I found this place on Yelp, most of the reviews seemed to come from guys who were already working out a lot and/or had boxing experience, so I was a bit hesitant to try out this gym. I called them and asked if a complete newbie could join, and they were very welcoming. It has a very grungy, real feel to it, lots of posters of boxing movies and boxing champions on the walls, a small forest of punching bags near the entrance, a boxing ring in the center. Tony had me join a small group of people who were learning boxing for hobby and fitness (versus the fighters who trained for matches). The class meets Monday through Friday after work at 7:30pm, which was perfect. I got to wear gloves and have a go at the punching bag the very first day! After a varied cardio workout, of course. The next class, Tony taught me how to throw jabs and hooks along with the right footwork and I got to throw punches at a person wearing a guard. I never knew punching stuff was so much fun! Every day it's about an hour and a half of varied workout - cardio, abs, weights, obstacle courses, boxing lessons, punching! And I feel right at home - everyone is so friendly and welcoming. Tony is a great coach and will genuinely care about the quality of workout you are getting. Even though I feel sore the next morning, I look forward to going to the gym every day, and I sleep so much better every night. I'm really glad I found this place, and would recommend it to anyone! read more

Gladiators is the best gym I have ever been a part of, hands down. I have long been a casual fan of boxing, watching the occasional PPV and highlights online. As a new years resolution, I decided to learn the "sweet science" myself! My wife actually found this gym, and Tony was super nice to her, gave her all the info and and gear. I knew I would enjoy learning to box, but the thing that makes Gladiators special is the people. Tony and Jonny are awesome, super welcoming and actually TEACH YOU TO BOX. Its an amazing workout for sure, but it's also a mental workout, considering technique/footwork/movement/combinations. The gym is perfect, all the right equipment, but also *feels* like a boxing gym, where there are real athletes plying their trade. If you are enthusiastic about boxing, this is the only place to learn in the area. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. read more

Gladiators Boxing Gym brings the look of an old school "Rocky" type gym. It is not your casual boxing gym. You can feel the culture this gym brings, its delightful looking at all the trophies and all the pictures of champs which have been created at this gym. Gladiators boxing gym is a very competitive gym with great instructors as well as fitness coaches. read more

Let me start by saying that all gyms are useless if there is no motivation or will, to workout and eat right. Gladiators Boxing Gym is the perfect environment for a person to succeed in whatever fitness goals they may have. The people there are all positive and very friendly, which leads you to come back often. What will also make you want to come back is the simple fact that results will happen. It is a far better workout than just simply doing weights and also a lot of fun. It may not be the flashiest boxing gym but it will get you to where you want to be. read more

Nothing short of a focused and old-school boxing gym vibe. My favorite boxing gym in the Peninsula. Very well-run and the people here are very respectful. The coaches are very knowledgable and are willing to help you with what you need to move up to the next level. If you're looking for a solid boxing foundation and you're new or seasoned, it's definitely a place worth checking out. read more

1:1 attention, Great hours. This gym takes you to the next level!

Although its hard to find, this boxing gym has been my home from time to time. Started working out here to prepare for football because they get you into shape and ended up quitting football and slowly getting more serious towards boxing. Eloy is a great trainer and will help you achieve whatever goal your trying to accomplish, whether your a beginner or a professorial boxer. read more

Great with kids and nice staff. watching my kids go here made me join and now I cant stop going. I like that they got music playing. I went from a couch potato to a workout fiend. read more

This place is amazing! I did not have any previous boxing experience before doing two individual lessons with Miguel. He is a great instructor and really taught me valuable footwork and handwork and put me through a great workout. I promise you you will leave exhausted yet satisfied! If you are looking to learn and advance your boxing fundamentals, as well as get a tough workout in, this is the place for you. Miguel's positive demeanor and knowledge also makes it really fun. Overall, a great experience! read more

I've been going here for about 4 years. I've tried a few boxing gyms closer to home, but once my coach took me to train at Gladiators, i never looked back. He had also trained here during his fighting days and told me that Eloy was the only person he really trusts in the boxing industry. The guys at the gym are kind, honest, and most importantly caring. There are some gyms that do it for the money, but at Gladiators, it is for the love of the sport. They really care and look out for all their fighters. Whether you wanna do it for keeping in shape for you are doing it to compete, they will give you the best work out of your life! It is also about half the price of other gyms, but make sure you look carefully because they are hidden in the lot of a towing company. All ages are welcome. read more

If you want to learn how to box, go here. Trainers are very dedicated to this sport and know what they are doing. You get in the best shape of your life and learn alot of skills. I have never been in such good shape from previous gyms or workout routines. I have done THE best work outs i have ever done in my life and seen the most incredible results ever. Even if you dont want to get into boxing, its a great workout gym in general. Many varities of workouts you could do and they will give everyone one on one attention which is hard to get other places and they help out because they love it not just because they are getting paid for it!! Need to come here. 100% satisfaction guaranteed. Probly will never return to another gym again. read more

Best boxing gym that I have been too. It has all the equipment needed to get a good workout in. Trainers are great as they are dedicated to making you a better boxer or getting you into the best shape of your life. If you want to box then this is the place to train at, as you get a lot of one on one time with the trainers. But if you just want to workout then you will get into the best shape by coming here, as you will be doing different types of exercises that will help you achieve your goals. The people are very friendly and always in a good mood which make it a positive atmosphere which helps make it easy to train and workout. I will never go to another boxing gym, as I have found mine in Gladiators Boxing Gym. read more

This review is WAY overdue! I have been going to Gladiators Boxing Gym for over a year now, and I am so happy that I found it. I am a woman who has never boxed before, and I was definitely nervous walking in to the gym my first day. Within MINUTES one of the gym owners (Eloy) was talking to me, making me feel comfortable, and teaching me techniques. There is a women's/adult's boxing and cardio class every weeknight. It is an AWESOME combination of boxing and cardio circuits. Tony, the coach, is amazing. He sets up great workouts, and every time I am there I get one-on-one coaching that is better than what I would get with a super expensive personal trainer at another gym. Tony makes everyone who comes into the gym feel like family, and he is a great motivator and friend! So, whether you are a kid or teen or an adult, man or woman, first timer or old timer, this gym has a place for you! All you have to do is walk in and you will automatically be part of the Gladiator's family. Great price, great people, amazing coaches, and better workouts and training than anywhere else! read more
