During my leisure I tend to frequent at the Toronto Boxing Academy & Fitness using their available services throughout the week. The atmosphere of the venue is very welcoming, kind, and open to all from my experiences. The staff are very understanding and easy to get a along with. They have all your boxing needs, from wraps to gloves to shorts and shirts, that you can always purchase from their front-store. They also have very delicious healthy snacks and beverages (my favorite is the lemonade drink they have, its so good). Their facility is abundant with exercise material and methods of exercises. Overall, the venue is great. For my first 3 months of participation, my typical week would consist of Personal training with Aaron and a Boxing Boot Camp lesson with Tommy. Personal training with Aaron was great. Much of my training consisted of Aerobic exercises, medicine ball exercises, core exercises, and boxing technique. Aaron was very friendly, knowledgeable, easy to get along with and socialize with. Being able to do the exercises alongside with Aaron greatly improved my results, compared to doing it alone, because he would always motivate and encourage me to push myself consistently. At the end of the three months I was very confident in my ability to boxing at a beginner/amateur level. Aaron was great a support and a teacher during this time and I would highly recommend him to service you with Personal Training. Boxing Boot Camp with Tommy was great as well. Tommy is very sociable and easy to get along with. His responsiveness to correcting everyone's technique shows he closely observes his students closely which greatly matters and shows he cares. I would highly recommend him to service you during Boxing Boot Camps. Going onto my 6 month of boxing, I can with certainty say that my 6 months has been rewarding and I am looking forward to my future classes here. To join the TBA was one of my best decisions I had made last year in September, and I invite others to join TBA as well as it may also be on of your best decisions for the year & going forward.

(Based on personal experience) The biggest turn-off for me was the cheating. If you negotiate any prices with the owner, I would get them in writing, verbal contact ARE NOT UPHELD. You will be left feeling really stupid when the other person (*ahem*) PRETENDS like the conversation never happened. When I tried to ask about it, he was super dismissive. It's was a humiliating experience I'd say because firstly most of the people the attend the gym are white and have some money to spare, so I didn't even press the issue because...I felt cheep in comparison. You'll know what I mean if you go in once. Btw, there are some creepy members there so just be careful who you are interacting with in what manner. Anyways, this was all to say I'm NOT going back and you could probably get a waay better deal with Xtreme. [The academy it self seems like a decent place to train and make changes to your life, and I honestly don't have enough knowledge (or experience) with boxing to comment on any of the training style. One of the coaches is quite aimable and looking at all the awards on the wall is quite motivating too.] Edit: The owner has posted a reply, and it's so frustrating that there is no reply feature! (I have quite a bit to respond back to.) But if you have doubts about the reality of my experience, I would actually encourage you to check it out for yourselves as this was the experience that I had over the course of my 30+ visits. Not a short time.

I got into it for mental and physical health improvement back in October 2022. It helped me in a way that now it's part of my morning routine. The coaches know exactly how to approach and they respect your pace and they teach us to apply the technique. I'm becoming better and better. I burned about 450 calories this morning and the best part is that I fill that I'm not alone to face my journey. The best bart for me, specially at the begining, is that they have a classes in the morning and in the evening. Some times I can't make it for 9 in the morning, then there is a 10 am session. Evening there are even more options. I find it very helpful since I have kids, job, and everything... There is always an option for me to get my boxing done for the day . I've been encouraging some of my friends to get a least one trial class. Then if they like it, get the 1 month class trial, to se if they get used to the life style. That's what I did. Now, my next step is to start sparring, I want to get the taste of the "real fight" so that may encourage me to get better and better. So many good things about this guys. Thanks for encourage me.

Toronto Boxing Academy is a great place for Boxing and Fitness. The owners are boxers themselves and can teach and train you for general fitness or boxing specifics. During the pandemic they created excellent online live stream programs as well as great technical boxing skill programs that you can use at your convenience. The gym itself was /is completely safe with all protocols and safe guards and sanitization being followed. I joined a while back because I wanted to learn to box and hired Brock for that reason. He is a great trainer and business operator and cares about all of his clients (I come from Durham Region to train with Brock). The gym and the programs are for everyone and all fitness levels. I highly recommend TBA. They can help you with programs for what ever your need - from proper diet to physical fitness. Start off with the online programs and once things open up again, you will love the gym and the workouts and learn to box.

  • Paul Brechbuhler

They try. They try very hard, but maybe a bit too hard. The biggest problem is that they take matters too personally. They need to keep things at a business level and not take everything personally. For example, they refuse to provide services to people based on hear-say from other trainers. Although they have the right to chose who they service, it is not a good business decision to be bias against specific people without just-cause. Also, a representative of this business was using a social media platform to publish negative comments about members. That is unprofessional. Social media should only be used to promote business-related events and never to "complain" about clients. Overall, the unprofessional behavior is taking away from the quality of the business and turns off clients.

  • Floyd Sunga

Great variety of classes that are offered at different times and at different skill levels. So if you are just getting into the sport or if you have been doing it for some time and are looking to maintain or build upon your skills, this gym can accommodate all levels. All the coaches are knowledgeable, supportive, and friendly, and will take the time to assist you if you have questions or are newer to boxing. The atmosphere is very welcoming/non-intimidating and the members/guests that come into the gym are a reflection of that. They also have a shop if you want to buy boxing equipment, accessories, apparel, and even snacks, which is an added plus.

  • Natalie Castro

I absolutely love this gym! I have been taking the virtual online boxing bootcamp classes during the pandemic and they have been awesome! I am getting a great work out as much as I did when I was at the gym in person, its just as intense and challenging but also fun too! Brock and Sarah are amazing, and for someone like myself who is not a physically fit type of person, I never feel intimidated. They are friendly and encouraging. Their online workouts helped me to stay active and disciplined during this pandemic. Totally recommend their online workouts and of course checking out the gym when they are back open!

  • Stephanie Arthur

I absolutely love TBA ! I have been a member since their doors have opened. Their bootcamps are always challenging and give great results. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming to all members no matter your skill level. Since the pandemic, I’ve been doing their online virtual bootcamps from home and enjoying the workouts just as much. The coaches are always motivating and coming up with new ways to challenge you during their workouts. I can’t wait until we can be back in the gym in person!

  • Sparky Express

This is the best boxing club / boxing gym in Toronto! The owners are experienced boxers with top boxing records! They have always offer the best boxing and fitness classes, the location is convenient and equipped with the best boxing training equipment! If you are a boxing pro, a beginner or simply looking to get super-fit, Toronto Boxing Academy is the place to go to! You'll come out of there a better person and improve your boxing & fitness skills!

  • anna redish

Boxing, fitness, encouragement, all of it. That's what you'll find here. Doesn't matter what your level. I'm over 50, and I go, and I try, and Sarah and Brock encourage me. My son, a competitive athlete used their boxing program in the off season to stay fit, and oh boy, did he show up in September fit and ready! I love the family atmosphere and personal attention, and Sarah's no nonsense, keeping it real advice and encouragement. Love this place.

  • Rebeca Montiel

One of best decision I made last year was to sign up for personal training and group boxing classes. Aaron my personal trainer has been able to design workouts that best fit my physical limitations and I truly appreciate that. This has helped my mental wellbeing and my physical health! If you are looking for a place to workout and at the same time build connections, join TBA, you will not regret it! Thank you TBA staff for being so welcoming!

  • Ronald Chung

Great gym! Great for cardio and intense training and also great for anyone wanting to become a boxer (lots of competing boxers and gym owner is pro boxer). Something for everyone- owner and everyone that teaches are really nice and welcoming. Morning and evening classes too so very flexible hours. Really great small business that provides lots of value to everyone from kids to adults to seniors in the community.

  • Hana Barakat

The team at the gym is the reason I was able to loose 30 lbs. They encouraged me to push my self and try new things. The boot camps were very fun and never boring. The meal plan is part of my everyday life now. It's not just a temporary diet. I was also able to channel alot of anger I was dealing with. Highly recommend this boxing Academy. Don't be afraid, if I was able to do it, anyone can.

  • adam ryan

I never went to a gym before signing up to TBA bootcamp. Everyone was so welcoming and supportive. Brock is an awesome coach and is always watching, so he can constantly help you improve. Just because Sarah is a woman don't underestimate her. She will work you the hardest to help you reach your goal. Together they are an amazing team of trainers and I recommend this place for all ages.

  • Natalie Zara

I have been going to TBA for over 2 months now and I love it. Staff is very friendly and helpful and the environment is very encouraging and supportive. I currently have a knee injury but I am still able to participate in the classes with modified exercises. This is the first place I’ve felt comfortable getting in shape and learning how to box. Highly recommend, really happy I joined.

  • Tel V

Amazing space, environment and everyone is genuinely incredible. Very diverse and accepting. I've been a member for along time and I love it!! Brock and Sarah always go above and beyond to create awesome classes, which provide exceptional results and they push you to achieve that. They do all that, while maintaining a warm and welcoming vibe. There is something for everyone.

  • Arys Déjan

The best boxing gym I have ever experienced. My first boxing gloves came from here, and I learned the foundations here. I'm also planning on returning this year to learn more and to transform my body and to get to that next level! Will also be having these guys on my podcast soon when I return, The Who & How Club, so join the gym, and support this family business.

  • Rahma Ahmed

TBA has become an integral part of my life in the past few months. I have been training with Sarah and loving it! I've learning a lot about my relationship with movement, food, and my body through working with Sarah. TBA is also a family run business giving it an incredible communal feel. I am so glad to be a part of this community and would highly recommend it.

  • jahmalk harding
