Parents of 2 boys (Nolan 5 & Connor 7) who were members of this gym since it opened in Oct. 2021 and ended our membership in May of 2023.The following is our reason for leaving and our assessment since we now have experience at another gym with a new coach.Our children were the longest standing members, and most dedicated in a kids program that has an extremely high turnover rate.As our boys continued to build experience we sought individual 1 on 1 sessions so they can continue to learn and grow as they began to get bored and plateau.We ended up with a bi-weekly to start but continued to seek a weekly slot.For several months Coach Mike would give us false hope about a slot freeing up. Insinuating he was going to "cut students clean" from their 1 on 1 time slots due to behavior, lack of participation, and/or attendance.That never came to fruition and his availability is extremely limited.We did not like how we were treated or valued when we voiced our needs. We were met with "I'm running a business here" . As an invested family who supported the gym to the fullest we left extremely disappointed. Loyalty is definitely not printed in Love's dictionary.We left and joined Bernardo's Boxing at the Fall River CYO at 403 Anawan St.Coach Aaron Bernardo is a full-time coach as Bernardo's Boxing is his 9-5.We immediately started with 2 weekly 1 on 1 sessions per week at the same rate we received at Love's.After working with our boys and seeing their potential as well as the boys' investment, and our investment as parents, Coach Aaron offered us a discounted 3rd day.Our boys have grown and developed at an increased rate and just recently kicked off competing at a sparring exhibition to a full house at the CYOWe couldn't be happier with the decision to leave Love's and we only wish we started at Bernardo's Boxing to begin with.Summary of or experience at Love's:Part Time Coaching(limited availability)Inexperienced compared to other local boxing gyms & coaches. (Don't take my word, ask for their coaching and competing resumes.)Odd business model of alienating your longest and most loyal standing members and not working to accommodate them while thinking that's a good business decision.

Great atmosphere that caters to all skill levels. Coach Mike and John are the best mixing both techniques with a awesome workout. If you’re on the fence about joining do it you won’t regret it!!!
