Been training here with a good friend of mine for almost 2 years. Love this gym. There's options…read morefor private lessons as well as group classes. Coaches all seem really passionate about what they do, and they'll definitely push you hard and test your limits every session, you just have to show up and be ready to put in work. Everyone I've met at the gym has been really friendly and supportive. Me being a smaller guy, I felt pretty intimidated at the start, but that feeling went away after I realized that everyone is there to improve each other. The only complaints I'll ever have for this gym is that it's expensive, ( If you're broke like me, coming here requires a bit of sacrifice ) but it's Seattle and I know the coaches gotta eat and cover their expenses for competing, which I'll gladly support. The mental and physical health benefits from training are absolutely worth it imo.

I was in town for the UFC. Needed to find a good place to get a workout in. Looked up quite a few…read moreboxing gyms but settled on this one. Glad I did, staff is cool, laid back environment. A great assortment of heavy bags, double end bags and speed bags. That was nice. Gym had an old school feel to it which is what I like and I am used to so that was a plus. Not sure when I'll be back this way again, but should we be fighting in Seattle in the future I'll definitely be back!

He also was a very clear and visual instructor that described where you should feel moves as well as overall flow and cool down options. I've taken one boxing class before and it kicked my ass--it was mostly running in circles and less boxing. This class was a lot more fun and easy to tailor to your energy level of the day. Just show up! This studio is really fun. Love the dark room and the music and lights. It gets you more into the mood of working out. I took rowing before to 70s music and it just doesn't get the energy up at all in comparison. Would return.

I joined this gym shortly after it opened since it's close to my house and it's been a wonderful…read moreexperience. Despite missing a few months due to injuries, I couldn't have found a better gym. For starters, there are no egos in the room and that starts at the top with Ryan Bow who has over 20 years as a professional fighter and is still humble and patient. There is truly an environment of cooperation during every practice and that makes it a great experience on top of the great workout. Everyone legitimately wants to help each-other improve and that attitude carries over to every new person that joins. The techniques that are taught are taught in a way that everyone can find valuable, no matter their skill/experience level. If someone picks something up quickly Ryan will add a layer for them. Conversely if someone is struggling he'll distill it down to the base layer until they are comfortable with it. Having been on both ends of that spectrum I've never felt uncomfortable or bored at any time. Finally, the curriculum is perfectly designed to appeal to people of all skill/experience levels. Members vary from people who want to fight professionally to people just looking for a workout with all sorts in between. The variety of skills that are taught are a perfect way to keep everyone learning rather than plateauing, and there is always another belt to work towards.

This is an incredible traditional boxing gym…read more The Coaches are knowledgeable, approachable, and genuinely invested in each person's understanding and development. For me, this boxing gym has been transformative. Mot importantly, I appreciate that the gym stresses not only boxing fundamentals and technique; but, it also focuses on character and the intangible traits that make a boxer successful in and out of the ring. I have been so impressed with this gym and these Coaches with this aspect of the gym that I bring my 7 year old son to train as often as I can. This is a gym where you and your kids can develop your body, mind, and spirit.

Professor Fenix and the crew at Fenix Capoeira are some of the most welcoming people I have met…read moresince moving to Seattle. They truly have a 'crew' mentality and welcome newcomers immediately and with smiles and handshakes! These guys are more than just a capoeira group. They are a solid bunch of people that combine all aspects of capoeira, not just the physical. That being said, you will definitely get a workout, and there is room to give as much as you have on any given night. It has been a long time since I have had such an enjoyable experience with a new group of people.

I recently tried Capoeira with a friend's group in Utah. On my return to Seattle I wanted to look…read morearound to find a local group because I loved it so much when I tried it first. I want to share a little bit of my experience with Capoeira here: First of all Capoeira is one of the best workouts I have ever done. Skiing, Basketball, Soccer, Yoga, Pilates, Lifting Weights, Swimming, Surfing, Volleyball, Handball, Bear Hunting, Salmon Fishing and Seahorse Tickling. Nothing comes close to Capoeira if you want to have a full body workout which on the one hand increases your muscle strength and on the other gives you better endurance, flexibility. Try the Jinga for 5 minutes and your glutes will inform you that you have never been this challenged and fit before. I thought Brazilians look so great in a thong because they are, uhm, Brazilians. Now I know its the Capoeira!!! Ok, maybe Samba also has something to with it. Speaking of Samba, during the workout a constant stream of brazilian beats keeps you in rhythm and bouncing a long when the going gets tough. The music, combined with the history and the people that practice this sport lend it an amount of soul that you will not find in other martial arts. Once you start and commit to it, you will find it hard to leave. Also, this is awesome for kids!!! Now, if you think that Capoeira is something that you want to try then you should give Professor Fenix "Academia" (gym) a try. We have had several Capoeiristas visit and they assured us that this is the nicest one in the Seattle area. It is well lit and has nice soft mats that keep your sweet toesies soft and it even has a play pen in case you want to park your 4 year old (like I do) while you work out. But the best part are the people at the Professor's Academia. Everyone truly embodies the spirit of Brazil and Capoeira. They will make you welcome, show you all the moves and eventually challenge you to your limits. Just don't ask me to do a back flip - YET!!!
