Great training and coaching. Coach Mike goes above and beyond with these kids, always reaches out to see how my son if feeling after a tough training or spar. All of the trainers and staff are amazing! Well ran and serious training, as it should be even with kids. We looked into a few other places before landing here and glad we did!

Coach Michael is fantastic—friendly, great with kids, and experienced in working with autistic children. My son loves training here, and even my husband trains with him. The staff is welcoming, and the workouts are intense! We travel from Queens just for this gym, and it’s worth it. If you're looking for a top-notch boxing gym, this is the one!

My son (24 year old young man on the spectrum) started Kayo just a few weeks ago with Coach Michael and looks forward to boxing every week. He has learned a lot in the short time he’s been here. Coach Michael is an amazing coach who is patient, instills confidence in my son and sets high goals and expectations of him. I highly recommend Kayo Boxing!
