I came to this place because I needed to do a quick workout and that's what I got. Staff was helpful and asked me to the point if I'll be doing a membership or drop in. They offered a great deal and rather paying the drop in fee. They offered the Buy a coffee and first class is free promotion. 10/10 for service Equipment is perfect. When it comes down to it A-1 equipment and really offers everything in regards to boxing. They have double end bags, heavy bags, tear drop bags and speed bags. 10/10 for equipment Location is where I'd say is why I rate my experience 4/5. Took me an hour to find parking and is near medical facilities which is a pretty busy area. 5/10 location All in all great place to train. I can't say much about membership pricing since I only did a drop in and was a offered a promotion. If you live in the area I'd say it's best to walk, Uber/Lyft or Bus. read more

The Park Gym - Interior - Boxing Near Me - San Francisco, California

Popped into The Park Gym as it was close to my hotel, but did not bring any of my gear with me (wraps, gloves). Luckily, intro drop-in classes were 2 for $35 (though my trip ended before I could do another class), $4 for wraps, $5 for glove rentals. Not too shabby given the gym is spacious, open, clean and welcoming. The front is a coffee shop so I was confused at first. There is ample room to wait, place your items in cubbies and use their clean locker rooms prior to class. You are also welcome to hop in to warm up but they will warm you up and make you question whether that in itself was the workout. Had a great class with Coach Paulo -- he trained with us and showed us a bit of his beast mode. Since most folks had established partners, I was able to work with him and he took the time to ensure none of us were left behind. We practiced with group drills around the bags, footwork, endurance and partner drills on the bags, ultimately ending with abs. One point I really enjoyed is that he was so welcoming to southpaws, as he had initially trained as one in his early days. He also worked with each of us and gave us tips to improve our form, which is very important. My entire experience was pleasant (except for my legs and breath giving out) and our class size being smaller than the previous really helped. I look forward to going back to The Park Gym in a heartbeat when I'm in town. read more

Great clean gym, and extremely rough and productive workouts. This is a great place to work out at

I can already tell this place will improve my boxing. Saturday morning was me 1 on 1 with the instructor. After stretches, jump rope, and shadowboxing was drills drills drills for punch combos & footwork. Then a calisthenics round. Some of the combo chains got complex = more interesting. They were also giving me footwork tips I'd never been told. Relax & take notes their punch #s are different. You're probably used to: 1 jab 2 straight / cross 3 lead hook 4 rear hook 5 lead uppercut 6 rear uppercut Park Gym #s are: 1 jab 2 straight / cross 3 lead hook 4 rear uppercut 5 lead uppercut 6 rear hook So they switch 4 & 6. Fkd me up at first lol. Big clean place, traditional heavy bags + teardrop water bags coming soon. read more

The first time to park gym I didn't the place existed. The place is nice. The owner and staff are very friendly and helpful. I like the drinks pastries etc. Highly recommend this place. If you join the gym you can get a drink later. My personal favorite is berry beast mode smoothie. Everything is delicious. Time to finish my smoothie. read more

The Park Gym - Menu - Boxing Near Me - San Francisco, California

As we a surge in Covid cases, I just saw an exercise class of seven people in one room sweating and breathing heavily, no mask in sight. And in the front room, two people sparring with boxing gloves, no masks. Incredibly irresponsible! read more

Fantastic classes, excellent coffee and wonderful staff. Highly recommend! Such a warm, friendly and approachable environment.

Years ago I had a membership at the previous location of Park Gym. That membership did not last for long and I started training elsewhere due to issues including but not limited to: -Schedule rarely adhered to (e.g. gym closing one hour early, gym opening one to two hours late, and classes not running according to schedul) -Rude, consdescending, and disrespectful staff -Amenities missing Despite these issues I decided to do a drop in class here recently since I needed a place to do bag work. No one was available for my inquiries for a long time and then eventually when I was able to schedule my drop in training there was no staff available to check me in. I suppose some things never change. read more

This review is strictly for the business practices of the gym. I reserved a boxing class via ClassPass, and upon arrival, I along with another woman, were informed that our reservations were not in the system but they would look into it. After the class began, we were pulled aside and told we could not stay unless we, the customers, resolved he issue with classpass. After questioning why the business owners, who authorized their class to be bookable on classpass, could not sort this out, the only response received was that they barely made any money off of the service, and that because they were a third party the gym had no interest in attempting resolve the issues that were occurring. While I have no idea whose error it was, the gym's or class pass', the right thing to do would have been to honor the payment we had made, and done their job to resolve the technical issues. I was looking forward to making this one of my permanent gyms, and have already referred 2 people. Unfortunately it was the most disappointing experience I've ever had with a business in San Francisco, and it led to the only negative review I've written on yelp. read more

I've only come here through ClassPass and so can't speak to the membership/business practices, but I've been satisfied by (most of)** the instructors, class options, and emphasis on technique. They offer both Boxing Level 1 & 2 classes. I would recommend Level 1 for most to start, especially if your prior boxing experiences has been with commercial boxing gyms (ie. Title Boxing, Rumble, etc.). Park Gym is not like those at all - they truly focus on your technique and form. Classes are usually 50/50 shadow boxing technique and heavy bag work. And no two classes are the same! You still get an amazing workout regardless of your prior boxing experience. I usually take Mario's classes. He pays great attention to form and footwork. First-timer tips: Buy or bring your own wraps. Complimentary glove rentals provided if needed. No showers, 2 bathrooms. Parking can be tough. **There was one instructor who was kinda rude and basically used someone else in the class as an example of "bad form" to another student... I've avoided his class since. read more

I have been going to Park Gym in the Mission for over 3 years now, and when they opened a location closer to my house I.WAS.STOKED. And it doesn't disappoint. This place is huge, and I am loving it being less known right now because the Mission location is usually packed - only a matter of time with this place. They offer cross fit and various levels of boxing (and other activities), but I honestly have only done their Boxing level 1 classes the whole time I have been a patron because it is the best workout I can get. I have been asked if I have jumped in a pool because of how sweaty I get, but you feel the burn for days afterwards - serious cardio and strength training. Super approachable staff, all levels welcome. They provide gloves, with their wraps that are available for purchase. Can't wait to see this place grow! read more

Have never written a Yelp review in my life, but created an account just because my experience with the owner was so awful. David Park is rude & unreasonable. It was impossible to get a hold of him or his staff, and all of my inquiries were ignored. Eventually my Groupon expired, and when I calmly asked to extend it, he blew up, cursing at me and saying to box somewhere else. After reading other reviews on Groupon (and Isabela's & Julie's reviews below), it seems he treats a lot of women this way. No thanks, David, there are better boxing gyms in the city that don't have owners with anger management issues. read more

What better addition to Pilates than boxing... Yes, Joe Pilates was a boxer and a trainer of boxers! But scary, right? Going from 3-plus years gentle, core focused Pilates to slugging it out... Surprise, surprise, surprise! Park Gym is not a meathead, cauliflower eared tough guy gym... It is a community based, team focused oasis on Geary in the Inner Richmond. Classes include the old, the young, often more women than men in an all-out, work hard, yet supportive and thoughtful manner. Lead by professional, encouraging, supportive and friendly coaches, he Boxing Level 1 classes are for everyone! Warm-up begins with stretching, jumping jacks, punching form training and more. Move quickly into the core of the training with a partner, taking turns practicing combinations of jabs, punches, evasions and teamwork with your partner. The last 5-10 minutes of class is a bit of cool-down, calisthenics and input. Best damn hour I have, three times a week. I am tired, not exhausted, invigorated and feel wonderful and confident after every class and always looking forward to my next. I've meet a bunch of wonderful people at park Gym, staff and clients and am so happy to have found this community and to become part of it! Check it out! read more

Love this gym and not because of location. I love this gym because it's a no frills, well ran, no hype gym. They don't use social media to get you to their gym and they don't have fancy lights or other bells and whistles (although the gym is nice). They focus on real deal boxing and athletic training with real athletes/passionate trainers. Don't let the other reviews about class pass phase you. This gym is worth the cost. read more

Finally, a gym where the instructors know you by name and you're motivated to attend more regularly. I was thrilled when the gym opened in the inner Richmond since I had grown weary of crowded, muscle factories downtown. I've been going twice/ week since April 2018 starting out as a beginner. Since then I've grown stronger and more confident not only in boxing but in many aspects of my life outside of the gym. The morning instructor, Arthur, is smart in his approach and curates each class based on the levels of people attending. (He also plays great music). If you're looking to improve both your fitness and coordination in a more down to earth environment, this is the place for you. read more

Very welcoming (Derek Davis). Solid workout. Good instruction by Abbie. Nice group of others working out. You could go at your own pace, mine being slower than the group's. I'll be heading back for sure. read more

Great workout, terrible business practices. I enjoyed the intense workout and especially liked the instructors Ricardo, Mario and Sylvie. I completed a 10 pack groupon and then purchased a 5 class pack to better feel out if I wanted to go all in and become a member (mind you, the fee for membership for even the smallest 3 month time is $699, not a small amount by any means.) I got off work early one day and tried to squeeze in a workout, but unfortunately missed the 1 hour cutoff time to sign up for classes just by a hair, I pressed submit right when 5:59 turned to 6pm for a 7pm class and I was not able to sign up online... I thought, oh well, and tried to call on the one off chance they still had space in the class, but the call went straight to voicemail. This was a bummer, but not a deal breaker. I thought, instead of going straight to writing a review on yelp, which is how realistically many business receive feedback these days, I would contact them directly. In my email I stated exactly that "I didn't want to put it in a yelp review as I really love classes at this gym and would rather send a direct communication." I was very polite in the email and at the worst expected them to write back that unfortunately they could do nothing about it because it was policy yada yada and I would have thought "oh well, at least I tried" and would have continued to give them my business... like I said, not a deal breaker. But I did not expect what happened next. The owner wrote back and said "It really is not nice of you to start your email with a threat of putting a bad review on Yelp. We would rather you go to a gym that can better fit your needs. If you're a member I'll happily give you a prorated refund. There are a lot of good gyms out there." I was shocked, in no way was I threatening to write a bad review, I was giving his business the courtesy of a direct feedback. If he had said there was nothing they could do, there was no need for me to write a yelp review, now responding by telling me not to come back... well that for sure qualifies as grounds to write a bad yelp review. Needless to say, I will not be going back to this gym. I wrote back taking him up on his offer for the refund but I have not received a reply nor a refund yet at this time. Take the owners own advice, there ARE a lot of good gyms out there, don't waste your money here. read more

Should have written this review months ago - I have nothing but amazing things to say about Park Gym. I had never boxed before and all the instructors I met were helpful, fun, and kind. All levels were welcome and supported. Moreover, all classes were incredibly challenging and never boring. It can be hard to find a good gym, this is by far the best gym I've ever been a member of. Would highly highly recommend! read more

I took 10 classes here on a Groupon and loved them! I tried the boxing level 1 class, core boxing, and kettle bells. Some of those classes are soo hard but I always walked away feeling great. Never personally had an issue with booking a class. I liked the instructors too, they were supportive and helpful. Would def recommend! read more
