Not a good place. For one, the services are mediocre. Second of all, the person who drives the black dodge sedan needs to learn how to drive. Literally drove past me going 40 MPH. Cops need to do something about this kid. Learn how to drive

Went by the gym about a week ago and he had a firearm on his person while actively boxing! But why? Is it ever that serious? Do you feel unsafe, does that mean I should too? Made me very uncomfortable.

I am so grateful for this place! King is caring and dedicated. If you are looking for a place to grow, learn, and feel fully supported, I cannot recommend King James Boxing enough.

King is a great motivating coach that really wants to see his clients succeed and surpass their goals. His box-n-burn classes on Tuesday and Thursday evenings are amazing workouts that leave you feeling stronger and more agile! Don’t pass up a chance to get a great workout with King!

King James Boxing (run by the gym's namesake, a Former Middleweight Champion) is a great place to train, workout and spar. The Box N Burn class is fun, hands-on (and gloves-on!), and a great, invigorating and demanding workout. Don't let King's mellow demeanor fool you; he is dedicated to the sport of boxing and, at every class I've been to, gives each student one on one time for sparring and pointers. Highly recommend this gym.COVID bonus: Taking classes outdoors is a super fun and refreshing way to continue to safely exercise in groups. (There is also an indoor setup, which is equally well equipped and a great space to train.)

Getting back into boxing after some time off. Just moved to the Burlington area and feel super fortunate that King James is training here. He knows his stuff, pointed out some fundamentals of mine that had slipped and gave me a workout that made me sore for days. Boxing or general fitness, he'll get you where you want to be.

King James is great! I decided to learn how to box to lose weight, get in shape, and most importantly defend myself. I started taking private lessons with him and he’s exceeded my expectations. We first do strength training exercises and then we box. I LOVE boxing, it’s the most fun workout I’ve ever had! He makes working out fun. I’ve also seen results on my weight loss and strength as well. I highly recommend him!

I recently started learning how to box on a whim without any prior experience. King eased me into the sport from the start, going over the basics in an easy to learn manner. He's a great coach, very welcoming and easy to work with. He encourages you to push yourself, and provides constructive feedback throughout to refine one's technique and form. I leave every session feeling like I've challenged myself and gradually improving, always looking forward to my next session. For anyone who's looking for a challenge and/or picking up boxing, I'd highly recommend King James Boxing and Fitness.

This guy is the real deal. James is the kind of coach who picks up on every nuance. He noticed some mistakes I was making right away that coaches in other martial arts gyms never bothered to correct. Plus, he switches up the workouts so that nothing is ever boring. Boxing is some of the toughest conditioning out there, but when you work with James his sense of humor and the light-hearted mood he creates makes the experience feel much easier. If you are looking for someone to give you just the right blend of encouragement, motivation, and feedback, then look no further than King James Boxing.

King James boxing is awesome!!King is welcoming, soft-spoken and easy to work with. He’s clearly a master of his craft but still relates to those in the early phases of learning it. Or, as he’d put it, “on the mountain for the first time.”He’s fun. He’s fast. And his class leaves you gassed.I’ll definitely be back. 5 stars and all the praise!!
