Bay Area Boxing

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym. High level instruction and great environment to train, whether you're a hobbyist or take the sport more seriously. Shoutout to Troy who conducts the Friday beginner's class. He's a great teacher and clearly breaks down sequences, highlighting important details throughout. Highly recommend his class, along with the rest of the gym's schedule.

Fantastic experience: Been here since 2021, checked out quite a few places. This is hands down the best vibe, instructions, humble yet competent groups of people led by great coaches. Been coming to BJJ, particularly the Friday class led by Troy has been amazing. Tailored warmups and techniques that progressively challenge all belts.

Fantastic experience: Been with the gym since 2018. Started from Muay Thai and ended up taking more BJJ classes. The coaches are knowledgeable and peers are friendly. The vibe is amazing!

Fantastic experience: Bay Atlrea Boxingis a great MMA school for those who want to work on gain mental and physical strength. The classes are well structured and offer a variety BJJ, kick boxing strategies and weight training.

Fantastic experience: Been at this gym for almost 3 years and have loved it since! Not only did I get in incredibly and noticeable good shape within a few months, I also learned a lot about boxing from the coaches who take the time to explain everything with care. I stayed 6 months longer in the Bay Area just to continue being at this gym. 10/10 recommend if you want to burn a lot of calories, get in shape fast and learn the art of fighting! Sucks that I had to leave this amazing gym but made many friends along the way.

Fantastic experience: instructors are amazing. It’s been 2 years already!!! Great coaches and diverse group from beginners to pro.

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym with a wide variety of quality classes, dedicated to different martial arts. I mainly go to the Muay Thai classes (on Thursdays and Fridays) and they are the best. Led by Coach Phillip and Coaches Jacob and Mo, they are great teachers who can break down fight scenarios/situations and provide great feedback on what we can improve on. Amazing classes and wonderful people at the gym!

Fantastic experience: Best place to train! I've trained in all of BJJ, boxing and Muay Thai here and have grown tremendously in fitness and confidence. The gym is an open and warm environment where everyone is friendly and willing to help you grow while providing the right amount of competitiveness for technical sparring. Biggest shoutouts to Coach Phil of the Muay Thai program. He really invests the time to watch you in class and point out small nuances that you're missing. I've taken numerous PTs with him and he has really helped me grow from a clumsy beginner who couldn't turn his hips to someone that competes. Shout out to Coach Jacob as well who is sparring with us every week and helping us with our technique and always keeping class light and funny.

Fantastic experience: I joined this gym as I had been looking to learn how to box for the longest time. After trying a few different instructors, I tried Mo’s Bayfit boxing class and it just clicked. His easy instruction style focused on fundamentals really worked. He focuses a lot on bag work which is what I was looking for. It’s very beginner friendly and at the same time you develop good technique over time. Even his Bayfit kickboxing classes are top notch and follow a similar pattern. I even did some 1-1 coaching with Mo, and those sessions were a blast. Definitely the best workout I’ve ever had, and I couldn’t rate Mo any higher - he’s awesome.

Fantastic experience: I had the privilege of participating in Coach Phil’s inaugural Muay Thai fundamentals class, and I have never looked back. The impact Coach Phil has had on my life is immeasurable. The friendships and connections formed along this journey will always be cherished. BAB has become a second home to me, and I would like to commend Jake and the entire staff for their outstanding support. Thank you all so much!

Fantastic experience: As someone with no prior experience in any combat sport, I was initially very hesitant to attend my first class at Bay Area Boxing. Fast forward a year later, I now attend classes 4-5 times a week. This is entirely due to the high-quality instruction and the extremely welcoming, friendly environment at Bay Area Boxing. Coaches Vick, Phillip, Brady, and Jacob are all top-notch coaches with different styles of coaching Muay Thai, so you can be sure to find a class that matches your style and pace. The classes attract a diverse group of members, ranging from those training for their next fight to those simply seeking a great workout, making it a perfect fit for all fitness and experience levels. I highly recommend Bay Area Boxing!

Fantastic experience: This gym is great! My husband started going to Mo’s boxing and kickboxing classes and instantly loved them. I was super skeptical…not being athletic at all…but finally I went too and immediately saw why my husband loved it. Mo’s instruction was clear. His patience and kindness for an uncoordinated newbie like myself was better than any other trainer I’ve worked with. We loved the classes so much, we started doing personal training with Mo too. Great tailored workouts! My form and strength improved fast!

Fantastic experience: Shoutout to my coach after taking his class for over a year! :D I had wanted to try Muay Thai for a long time, but stepping into a new gym felt intimidating. From day one, Coach Phil made me feel welcome by taking the time to chat with me. He’s incredibly detailed, technical, and professional, breaking down techniques in a way that’s easy to understand and apply, as well as friendly and welcoming. His coaching pushes you to improve while making you feel supported every step of the way. If you’re looking for a great Muay Thai coach, I highly recommend him! The gym is great overall! The staff and members are super friendly, place is clean and classes are fun.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Bay Area Boxing on-and-off for about five years. All of the instructors are great; within the last year I've mostly been going to Mo Khan's classes, and I've been very happy. He is super personable, supportive to those of us with less experience, and runs his classes at a great pace -- hard enough to work us, but not so hard that I'm destroyed at the end. Would highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I felt the need for some life changes, but I’m no spring chicken, definitely on the older side. My daughter and son-in-law suggested Bay Area Boxing, and I must admit, I was hesitant. I had no prior experience in kickboxing or Muay Thai. They persisted, and eventually, I gave in. My first class was with Devyn’s kickboxing class, and I was instantly hooked. With my kids’ encouragement, I started Muay Thai training with Philip Mendoza. I can’t express my gratitude enough for his exceptional coaching. He’s incredibly motivating, pushes me to my limits, and keeps me yearning for more.

Fantastic experience: I joined BAB in 2022. I didn't know anyone back then, and now I have many friends here. Awesome stuff, especially my favorite coaches, Jacob and Brian! I highly recommend checking out BAB if you want to have a fun workout experience!

Fantastic experience: Bay Area Boxing turned out to be more than just a regular gym outlet for me. I initially started going only twice a week, then eventually became addicted and upgraded my membership to doing unlimited classes. I’m there for the combat vibes 4-5x a week, sometimes multiple classes in one day! I am a huge fan of the Muay Thai classes, especially the ones taught by Head Muay Thai Coach Phil Mendoza who also currently teaches the BullyProof Kickboxing classes for kids. I also do BayFit Kickboxing classes under Coach Brady Garner who also incorporates Muay Thai drills on the bag side! Coach Jacob Bolanos (also currently our main Muay Thai amateur fighter) is cool too. His playlist really gets you going in his Boxing & Kickboxing classes. (Who doesn’t enjoy doing ab workouts or burnout drills to songs of Madonna, Cher, Mariah Carey, Celine Dion, or the Grease soundtrack?!) He is such a fun fellow! Lastly, I really need to highlight what matters most for me at this gym: the community. It’s the people that put in the work to not only sweat and suffer with you, but also happily laugh and cry with you as well. If it weren’t for the folks that I’ve met here, I’d probably wouldn’t be as motivated to go nor would it be as fun! In addition to getting a good sweat in, it’s the family dynamic and friendships that make my membership here PRICELESS. Join & you’ll see!

Fantastic experience: Bay Area Boxing is the best! Coach Phil’s attention to detail and Coach Jacob’s energy make every session amazing. Great training, great vibes—highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Coach Phil’s Muay Thai program is elite. Did my first 2 fights with him and many more to come.

Fantastic experience: I've been training at Bay Area Boxing for about a year and a half now and have nothing but amazing things to say about my time here. The instructors are incredibly warm and classes are a ton of fun. The Muay Thai Fundamentals classes with Coach Phil have helped me build my endurance, strength, and improve my technique. Coach Phil encourages me to push myself and provides the support I need to grow in my skills. If you are thinking about learning Muay Thai or just looking for a great workout, I highly recommend Bay Area Boxing!!

Fantastic experience: Awesome boxing class! The instructors are super supportive, the workouts are tough but fun, and the vibe is great. Perfect for getting stronger and letting off some steam. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Great gym, coaches, equipment, and atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: Bay Area boxing is one of the most welcoming gyms I have been to. Both Jake D and Jake T answered all my questions upon enrollment and are always so kind. I particularly want to shout out Coach Mo Khan, his classes are a great mix of boxing and fitness. He also focuses a lot on technique and helps you perfect your movements.

Fantastic experience: This is like my second home. Joined back in 2013. Jake D. and his crew are top notch. The upgrade in equipment and new tech makes gym days a blast. Muay thai fundamentals with Phil really hone in my punching and kicking. I can then practice them on the heavy bag during Brady's kickboxing class. If I want a HIIT style bag workout, Mo gets the job done and has hype music to boot. They offer kid self defense classes too! Whether you want to lift weights, spar or roll on the mats - this place has it all. My health and well being thank you.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a loyal member of the BAB for a few years now, and I can’t say enough about the knowledgeable and accommodating staff and instructors. The owner, Jake Dieaco, ensures that everything runs smoothly and efficiently. The gym offers a diverse range of classes throughout the day, even on Sundays. Personally, I particularly enjoy Coach Mo Khan’s class. It strikes a perfect balance between technical work and fitness, and I also take private lessons with Coach Mo to focus on strength training.

Fantastic experience: Coach Phil will help you achieve your Muay Thai goals and turn you into a savage. Coach Jacob makes funny noises and brings life and spinning moves into the gym. Coach Mo will teach you to check inside low kicks and get your heart pumping with great music.

Fantastic experience: The best place to train in the Bay Area. I have been training for many years and Bay Area Boxing is the best place to train. I really enjoy the diversity of classes, the people, as well the management team. Phillip Mendoza is one of the best Muay Thai instructors I have ever met. Definitely recommend anyone who is interested in real-world and practical martial arts training or just wants get in shape to go to Bay Area Boxing.

Fantastic experience: I signed up for a trial boxing class over a year ago with zero experience and, honestly, I was pretty intimidated. But everyone was so welcoming that now I go to Coach Mo’s BayFit boxing class every week. The workouts are always solid, and I leave feeling great. I’m hoping to get into the kickboxing classes more, too. The gym is well-equipped—they upgraded all their bags last year—and booking classes through the app is super easy. I'm always greeted at the door by name. If you want a great workout in a friendly environment, I highly recommend checking out Bay Area Boxing. Support a local gem!

Fantastic experience: Working out at a boxing gym can seem intimidating, but everyone here is super friendly. The BayFit classes are intense, but the instructors are AMAZING. (Special shout outs to coaches Jacob Balanos, Michael Rodriguez, and Alex Soto. They've gotten me in the best shape of my life.) I've been working out here for over 2 years and I don't think I'll ever quit. Love this place!

Fantastic experience: I started coming to Bay Area Boxing in October 2023 as a beginner to boxing. I was welcomed immediately by the friendly coaches and received the attention that beginners need. I really appreciate the friendliness and support of the coaches, which helped me hit the ground running with combat sports. Fast forward to now and I've developed my skills and personal fitness tremendously, thanks to the amazing coaches. I've had the opportunity to have personal training sessions with coach Phil and coach Jacob who have helped me fine tune my skills and pushed me beyond what I thought I was capable. Coaches Mike, Mo and Brady have all been great teachers and training partners alike. Taking a look around the classes, you'll see people of all different ages and abilities. It really is a welcoming sight to see, and would recommend it to anyone who is looking to get into combat sports. The coaches here are going to help you hit your goals, whether you're looking to stay in shape, or get in the ring.

Fantastic experience: Bay Area Boxing is awesome. want to get in the best shape of your life and also learn how to handle yourself? this muai thai, BJJ and kickboxing gym is super welcoming for beginners and advanced folks. i've been a member since summer 2022 and also do personal training with Coach Mo who is extremely friendly, knowledgeable and technical. highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: Outstanding boxing gym! Coaches are experienced with fighting and teaching their passion. Look out for coaches Mo and Justin's boxing and kickboxing classes!

Fantastic experience: I have been a happy member of Bay Area Boxing since 2021! This amazing gym rivals any other boxing gym I have been a part of! A special shout out to my favorite coaches - Coach Mo and Coach Troy! If you are looking for fun exercise, strength training I highly recommend the boxing and kickboxing classes.

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love Bay Area Boxing! As a former collegiate sprinter, I initially joined the gym just hoping for a decent workout — and wow, my expectations were surpassed! I’m a big fan of both the boxing and Muay Thai classes, but I have to give a special shout-out to Coach Mo. After his 6am classes consistently kicked my butt, I started training with him one-on-one — and it’s been a game-changer. Having been an athlete, I know what good coaching looks like, and Mo’s ability to assess my strengths, build on them, and improve my weak areas is unmatched. He creates a challenging yet safe learning environment and always pushes me to meet high performance expectations. I’m still a newbie, but thanks to Mo’s guidance, I’m feeling more confident in my boxing and Muay Thai skills, and in my overall ability to deliver a whooping!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming here for a month now to Mo Khan’s bayfit boxing class, and the class is the best boxing fitness class I’ve taken. Coach Khan instructs us on new combos each class to practice and stops by each student to give tips and pointers. We finish the class with 15 minute of calisthenics for lower body and core. I enjoy coming each week and always look forward to the next class!

Fantastic experience: Great gym, great staff. If you want to get that work in then pull up. I do PT with coach Mo Khan and take his classes he’ll get you right fosho

Fantastic experience: Bay Area Boxing is a fantastic gym with amazing staff. The staff are always helpful. Jake Tipton and the other instructors are great, offering support. The coaches and members have a positive, friendly attitude. I highly recommend Bay Area Boxing for anyone interested in martial arts or mixing up their fitness routine.

Fantastic experience: Both Jake’s are incredibly nice and welcoming. This is an excellent gym and I highly recommend. All the staff is amazing and I enjoy my time here very much.

Fantastic experience: Been attending the Muay Thai class here for about 3 months now. Coach Phillip is an amazing instructor, I always get a great workout and can already see my progression. The management and staff are extremely welcoming and friendly. Made me feel a part of the team right away. 10/10

Fantastic experience: This one goes to coach Phillips. Been here for ~8 months and been to several gyms around Bay Area so I have a decent benchmark, everyone here is super nice and professional. Lots of class so you can always find something that fits your schedule as well. Overall amazing experience, would definitely recommend!

Fantastic experience: After two years of being unmotivated to workout I walked into Bay Area Boxing and instantly felt renewed with energy. Jake and his coaches made me feel like a valued member of a special community right away. I am now 20lbs down, but more importantly I am back to living a healthy and active life full of new friends. I had very little boxing/kickboxing experience going in but now I feel comfortable in any class thanks especially to Coach Troy and Coach Michael. I highly recommend Bay Area boxing - best decision ever.

Fantastic experience: If you’re looking for a top-notch boxing gym, Bay Area Boxing is the place to be. The atmosphere is intense yet welcoming, with coaches who genuinely care about your progress. The training is structured, challenging, and perfect for all levels, whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned fighter. Special shoutout to Coach Jacob —their attention to detail, technical knowledge, and ability to push you to your limits while keeping you motivated is unmatched. Whether you’re working on footwork, power punches, or defense, they break it down in a way that clicks. If you’re serious about improving, you won’t find a better coach to guide you. Highly recommend checking out Bay Area Boxing if you’re ready to level up your boxing game!

Fantastic experience: I've been around, and Bay Area Boxing is easily the best gym on the peninsula for those looking for group classes or private instruction. Jacob Bolanos is uniquely adept at imparting technique while inspiring enthusiasm in his students. Michael and Devyn deserve high praise as well for bringing the sport to life in a positive environment of their own design. Newcomers may feel a mite shy, but will soon learn that all are welcome among good people.

Fantastic experience: Bay Area Boxing is an amazing place! I have been training here for almost 3 years now and the people and the classes are so great! I've mostly trained with Coach Jacob who has been so great at pushing me to be my best! He’s very patient with new students and does a great job clearly relaying feedback or information. He also gives great private lessons tailored to his client’s needs. His high energy is contagious; whether it's his Sunday morning BayFit boxing class or evening Combat Boxing! Although, I’m still always ALSO very excited when Head Muay Thai Coach Philip Mendoza fills in. When it comes to Muay Thai, I have to give props to Coach Phil!! He’s also very patient and is great with all students! Looking forward to be back in soon!

Fantastic experience: Bay Area Boxing had been an integral part of my husband’s and my life. For a solid few years, we dedicated an incredulous number of hours to training in Muay Thai. We had simply began in the Bay Fit Cardio Classes and had slowly graduated to Advanced Muay Thai. If it weren’t for the solid foundation created by fostering improvement on individual skills/knowledge in combat sports coupled with a sense of community building, my husband and I wouldn’t have put in the time and effort. A special and huge thank you/vote of recognition go to Coach Phil Mendoza and Coach Jacob Bolanos. Coach Phil continually puts in time and effort to supporting all of his pupils. He transcends learning by both translating/transferring his direct fight style into a facile learning experience. Beyond that, he’s incredibly supportive and I consider him a dear friend. As for Coach Jacob, he remains steadfast in his dedication to fight life and the fight community. He will not shy away from putting his body on the line to help his students improve. I also consider him a dear friend. If it weren’t for these two and additional staff, I wouldn’t have felt the confidence to take my first PMT, fighting under the Bay Area Boxing banner. If you’re ready to not only build a healthier lifestyle and gain skills, but also make lifelong friends, join this gym and community.

Fantastic experience: So grateful for Bay Area Boxing. From the staff/coaches to the community of clients/fighters. My wife and I joined with no experience and no expectations and ended up having the most fun over the span of a few years. We learned the basics, made friends, improved, trained beyond our limits, and even got to fight under the BAB banner. Special shout out to Coach Phil and Coach Jacob Bolanos for pushing me to improve and reach new heights when it came to my skill and fight knowledge. The countless hours they spent training me/with me, sparring with me, running drills and going through fight camps with me - they made all of the time and effort worth it and I’ll always be thankful for them. I joined the gym as a way of looking to get fit and ended up making some of my fondest memories and unforgettable experiences.

Fantastic experience: I love this place! Jacob Balanos is my favorite teacher, his classes are so fun and a great workout!!

Fantastic experience: I took a few boxing classes over the winter with Jacob Balanos and he was great. Super helpful and informative especially while first starting out! Will definitely be going back once I’m back in town

Fantastic experience: I’ve had the privilege of training with Coach Jacob, and I can confidently say he’s one of the best in the game. Jacob has a unique coaching style that balances discipline, encouragement, and a genuine passion for the sport. I came into Bay Area Boxing with no Muay Thai experience and was extremely nervous to something new, but my personal training sessions with Coach Jacob have built up my skillset and confidence in the gym. He knows exactly how to push you to your limits while keeping training engaging and fun. If you’re looking for a Muay Thai coach who will challenge you, support you, and help you grow both physically and mentally, Coach Jacob is your guy! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Bay Area Boxing has an awesome atmosphere and killer workouts! Huge shoutout to my trainer Jacob Bolanos, for pushing me every session. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I wanted to start taking jiu jitsu classes and after looking at some other gyms in the area I decided to sign up at Bay Area Boxing. The staff here knew my name after my first session and are always super welcoming and helpful. I started taking jiu jitsu classes with Jake D, Jake Tipton, Nick and Brian and they are all fantastic instructors, who are welcoming and helpful whether it’s your first class or your hundredth. The same can be said for the other coaches and members, everyone has a great attitude and is very friendly. I would recommend Bay Area Boxing to anyone looking to get into martial arts or is looking for a place to mix up their exercise regiment while looking to make some great friends in the process.

Fantastic experience: I went here for a year, most enjoyable and effective time I've had exercising. Great place, great value, great people.

Fantastic experience: I've going to Bay area boxing for a couple months now for jiu jitsu and I can't say enough how beginner friendly the coaches and the community is, everyone wants to help. Both Nick and Jake are so nice and understanding. If you are looking for a place but scared, come to the trial class and you won't regret it

Fantastic experience: Bay Area Boxing is awesome! I've benefitted a lot from the kickboxing program. It's helped me to get stronger and fitter. The trainers are really good, they take time to make sure everyone's doing it right. The soundtrack is a blast. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: Since April 2023 until January 2024, I've been going 2 times a week to Bay Area Boxing every week! I've done both boxing and kickboxing, with maybe 6/7 coaches in total. All of them extremely good. Personally I've been doing boxing for over a year, but often in classes see people with a lot more of years of training or just beginners. The coaches always walk around and see your form to see how you can improve, and are always happy to answer questions - it's a very good environment for beginners, but also for experienced athletes since the coaches have a lot of experience. I particularly recommend the BayFit Boxing classes with Michael Rodriguez, which always have the best soundtrack and most punches/minute, or the Boxing Fundamentals with Alexey Bulankov to improve your technique Both Jakes (the owners) are friendly and super helpful. I never had a problem that they couldn't help me with, even if sometimes I send a late message to ask for an extra slot to a class that I didn't sign up on time. I'm leaving the gym because I am moving to a different state for work. I cannot recommend this place enough.

Fantastic experience: Bay Area Boxing first welcomed me back in 2020. I was very shy about going there, but Jake was very welcoming and helpful on my first day. They have a wide range of classes such as kick boxing, muay thai, to ju jitsu. Classes are offered from early morning to late evening to accommodate all different schedules. Their coaches are all friendly and offer all sorts of advice, tips, and tricks to help you perfect that punch. What sold me on the gym was the welcoming & non-judgmental atmosphere and seeing how diverse the community is there. Personally, I've made some great friends there and it wouldn't have happened if I didnt step out of my comfort zone and joined Bay Area Boxing! Thanks Jake and everyone at gym!! p.s. - the first session is free so go give the gym a try. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Fantastic experience: Outstanding Customer Service and Genuine Care My interaction with Jake at Bay Area Boxing was exceptional and I was very impressed. He went above and beyond to assist me with registration, even offered to provide me with a complimentary lesson to help me find what would be a good fit... He genuinely cared and followed back after a quick online inquiry and made me feel welcomed and valued as a customer. Jakes passion for his job and business is admirable. He deserves a five star for great customer service and care.

Fantastic experience: Visited for drop in from Canada, coaches and students of all levels were super nice and the training was lots of fun and a lot of good exercise! Thanks for the good time!

Fantastic experience: After being a member for over a year now I can confidently say this is one of the best decisions I have made. I joined for the kickboxing classes (which are fantastic) and ended up obsessed with the cross fit strength training classes. As someone in their 40's I can say I have never felt so strong and wish I had done this sooner. Jake Delaco and his team have created a welcoming and supportive environment with something for everyone.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming to Bay Area Boxing for over a year now and I love it! My body has changed significantly, I’ve gained so much muscle, and I love the community as well. The kickboxing classes are fun and engaging, but my favorite classes are the upper and lower body cross training. I feel like a different person since going to those classes consistently!

Fantastic experience: To put it as simply as possible, if you think that all the 5 star reviews aren't real, you're wrong. The gym is just that nice (: All the coaches and people there are extremely welcoming and very easy to talk too, especially when your barely starting off, super kind in explaining things and very patient as well!

Fantastic experience: Joining Bay Area Boxing was one of the best decisions I've made for my overall fitness and wellbeing. Jake and his team are wonderful! The boxing and kickboxing classes are a great workout and I only wish I'd joined sooner!

Fantastic experience: Love this place. Great work out and awesome trainers.

Fantastic experience: The best decision I’ve made in the recent years was to join Bay Area Boxing club. I'm extremely happy with what BAB offers. Just wanted to echo the positive messages of other reviewers. Thank you guys!

Fantastic experience: I've been a regular here for 2 years, I started with simple kickboxing classes and eventually moved into muay thai padwork and sparring. All the coaches are incredibly friendly. They allow you to learn at your own pace while challenging you if you want to grow faster. I've never been more fit in my life. ❤️ Bay Area Boxing

Fantastic experience: Bay Area Boxing is the undoubtedly best martial arts gym you will find on the peninsula. I walked in there with little muay thai experience and have been training muay thai for over a year. The coaches are amazing. Coach Mendoza is an amazing muay thai coach for people just starting out and for those who are competition level. He really knows his stuff. his training sessions are not easy, though, but if you stick with it you will see the rewards. all of the coaches are fantastic and super helpful. they will all give you advice to help you towards your goal. the community is outstanding. the people who train muay thai and jui jitsu come in to train every single day and have been there for years. there are plenty of really good fighters in there that are always super happy to help you improve. the community is focused on working hard and helping each other, compared to other gyms where there are a lot of egos. overall, BAB has the best coaches, facilities, and community to make anyone into a better fighter, regardless of their skill level when they join.

Fantastic experience: One of the most wholesome gym I've been to. Everyone from the coaches to members are very friendly and willing to offer help. Gym is super inclusive, people from all ages attend classes and works towards a healthier lifestyle. Cannot recommend enough!!

Fantastic experience: Very friendly, warm, and fun management, coaches, and students. They have a wide range of classes for any experience level, and all the martial arts you would want. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Bay Area Boxing is a great gym I decided to take up BJJ to get in better shape. I knew absolutely nothing about the sport, my buddy kept bugging me to try it out and I am great full that he did! Master Hulk and Jake are great instructors. Everyone that trains at the gym is very heblpful and respectful.

Fantastic experience: Amazing, clean Facility! Wide selection of beginner and advanced classes with great coaches. Huge area for workouts, multiple benches and squat racks available, as well as, free weights and machines. I work out here 6 times a week and there are always free machines to use. Overall had amazing experience here for past 2 years and people here treat you like family.

Fantastic experience: I have been a BAB member for about 2 years now, and it is truly the first time I have ever been able to stay consistent, excited and stick to a workout routine. The coaches are always attentive, easy going, knowledgeable and highly skilled in their training. The owner, Jake, knows every member and greets us when we walk through the door, which creates a really welcoming and comfortable environment. There are a variety of classes to try - but I highly recommend the cardio kickboxing and cross-training classes! I have grown immensely in my kickboxing and weight lifting skills with the help of all of the amazing coaches at BAB. So glad I found this gym!

Fantastic experience: Been going here for about 2 years. Bay area boxing is a great gym for anyone interested in/practicing martial arts, bag classes, and full body workouts. Jake and his instructors are super professional, helpful and knowledgeable. Whether you're a complete beginner or more advanced, bay area boxing has classes that will fit your needs, in an encouraging, motivating atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: When I joined Bay Area Boxing, I wasn't sure how it will be. I always look forward and excited to go to Bay Area Boxing compared to other gyms. Each time I participate it's a new experience. The workouts are hard but fun. I only wished I would have joined sooner because I have never experienced anything like this. The staff, and members are great.

Fantastic experience: I can say in all honesty this place has changed my life for the better. Before going here I had not heard too much about jiu-jitsu and then one day, I took a leap of faith and decided to try it. Safe to say I really do not know what I was doing before training here. There are too many great classes here to mention but there are 4 instructors that come to mind that I would highly recommend. The first being Brian "Hulk" Fernandez Master Black Belt who teaches Gi and No gi Jiu-jitsu night classes. The second would be Purple Belt Troy Lemons kickboxing classes at 5:15pm. The third is Brown Belt Jake Tipton's mid-afternoon gi jiu-jitsu classes and he also teaches kickboxing at noon. Last but certainly not least is Black Belt Jake D's tuesday cross training leg day at 4pm. All of these instructors are great guys who will make you feel welcome and answer any questions you might have! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Great Gym, great owner, great people, great coaches! I would personally recommend Alex, boxing coach!

Fantastic experience: I love this gym, they are so welcoming to people at any skill level and as a complete beginner, I quickly felt at home. I've lost 60 pounds in 6 months doing mostly BJJ and the process has been incredibly fun. OSS!

Fantastic experience: One of the most positive gym experiences I have ever had. An excellent gym, with knowledgeable, encouraging, and kind coaches. My past year training here has really boosted my confidence and my athleticism. Special shout out to coach Izzy!!

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love Bay Area Boxing! I really like their methodical teaching, breaking down movements to their basics. Jake the owner is so down to earth and always goes above and beyond for his clients, truly sets the tone by always greeting everyone as you walk in. All the instructors have extremely impressive resumes so you're training with the best, they always make time to work one on one to make sure you are improving in every class. If you're looking to get in shape for a hot girl summer this is the place to be!!!

Fantastic experience: Hands down the best boxing gym in the Bay Area! Jake is professional and ensures that everyone is set up for success. He knows every one of his clients and greets them with enthusiasm. The pricing is reasonable, considering you can take a variety of classes and have access to open gym! The coaches are patient, experienced, and make every class one to remember. I have gained so much knowledge about skills and technique just from one month. If you are looking for a lifestyle change and a community, join Bay Area boxing!

Fantastic experience: Working with the crew at Bay Area Boxing was such an enjoyable and rewarding experience. If you are looking for any of the following results, you should sign up asap: 1. Lost 15-20 lbs almost instantly 2. Increased my knowledge and practical experience in boxing/kickboxing/jui-jitsu 3. Through the encouraging and talented staff, was inspired to go even on the days when i didnt wanna go 4. Had a great time making new friends and learning applicable martial prowess. I could go on and on, but Ill sum it up by saying this is the spot and if you have even the slightest desire to join, give it a shot, you wont be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: Great place to get a great workout whether it be boxing, kickboxing, muai thai or jujitsu. Jake and team are great, they make everyone feel welcome whatever your level of competency. Theres several classes a day with flexible, friendly and helpful coaches.

Fantastic experience: The best workouts and amazing coaches

Fantastic experience: Great gym! Took muay thai and bag classes here and had a great workout every time. The gym is very clean and is well equipped!

Fantastic experience: I took classes here for several months and only stopped due to a new job. All of the coaches and classes here are a joy to work with and attend. It's a warm and welcoming environment where you can grow stronger and punch out all your stressors, and it's one of the best priced gyms I've seen in the area. I will absolutely go back once I get my new schedule down.

Fantastic experience: Walking into Bay Area Boxing, I had no prior BJJ experience and only a small amount of martial arts training. I did not know how things would go, but wanted to give it a try. All I can say is that Bay Area Boxing went above and beyond in the services they provided. I enjoyed the BJJ sessions so much that I ended up taking some boxing and Muay Thai classes that were just as excellent. If you are someone looking for a professional, informative, and inviting environment to try out these awesome activities, look no farther. Get a little out of your comfort zone and just give it a try. I guarantee you will have a great experience with any of their offerings!

Fantastic experience: Very friendly, clean, and well maintained gym. Staff and instructors are great! Highly recommend anyone to join.

Fantastic experience: For anyone interested in developing skill in either Kickboxing or Muay Thai, definitely recommend this gym. The coaching is high caliber, with heavy workouts to get the blood flowing and plenty of technical pointers during sparring and non sparing classes. 5/5 stars without question!

Fantastic experience: The lockdown did a number on my physical health and I was in desperate need of getting back into an exercise routine. Figured I'd give kickboxing a shot as a fun way to workout, but I had some reservations given that I've never done anything similar in the past. Turns out everyone here is super helpful and friendly, and they all took the time to explain the basic fundamentals of punching/kicking; the workout is also amazing! Highly recommend checking this place out.

Fantastic experience: Great gym. Awesome team. Had to end my membership due to going back into the office.

Fantastic experience: Friendly boxing gym with great instructors!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been trying to find a gym for a while now that makes me comfortable and motivated. Little did I know I was going to be addicted to going to this gym and learning all kinds of new techniques and meeting a bunch of cool people. All the instructors are awesome and motivate me every class I go to. I take kickboxing and Brazilian jiu jitsu with Jake Tipton. My instructor is very focused and serious with what he does and teaches me so much just in one class! I’m also in a cross training class which is weight lifting with the owner Jake Deiaco and have already seen results in such a short amount of time. I love this gym. Don’t hesitate to sign up just do it!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training jiu jitsu here for the past 6 years and am glad I call Bay Area Boxing my gym. Great instructors with lots of experience. There’s 3 black belts and tons of upper belts that are always willing to help. I’ve trained at a lot of different gyms and what sets this place apart is how it cuts out the ego, formalism, and other nonsense that usually comes with jiu jitsu which allows allows you to focus on your progression in the sport. People who train here have a good understanding of the fundamentals while being exposed to leg locks and other “new school” techniques. If you’re looking for a welcoming place to start jiu jitsu and/or fitness classes or you’ve just moved and need a new gym to train at, you should definitely stop by and try a class!

Fantastic experience: Love this gym, been going here since it first opened and started with just the cardio classes. Luckily, the coaches convinced me try other classes like Muay Thai and BJJ and I have thoroughly enjoyed training and competing in these martial arts. The instructors here are top notch whether you're looking for fitness, recreation, or competition training. Love this place!

Fantastic experience: This is an all-in-one gym for martial arts, weight lifting, fitness, and cardio - basically, everything you want! The coaches are great, the atmosphere is very friendly and welcoming, and the owner Jake is super helpful.

Fantastic experience: The gym is super clean. 5 different sections, one w bags, a ring, mats, weight lifting and a fan bike stretching area. The owner Jake is super personable and organized. All the instructors are knowledgeable and want you to be the best version of yourself in whichever art you choose. It is a great community and you will not be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been working out regularly for about 10 years. I’ve been to all types of gyms and Bay Area Boxing is definitely my favorite. They have an amazing and accessible owner, Jake. He is willing to help you in any way, from developing workouts to spotting you if your gym partner stood you up. The instructors are also exceptional, they are all very friendly and knowledgeable. They have a lot of classes throughout the day which are all fun, exciting, and challenging. I don’t feel out of place like I’m just going to the gym as a chore, I feel like I’m going to workout with friends because the members are equally kind and respectful. If you are at all interested in martial arts, weightlifting, or just an intense cardio workout, I highly recommend Bay Area Boxing.
