There are days when life feels overwhelming but stepping into Austin Women’s Boxing Club is always the reset I need. The energy, the coaches and the women here remind me what I’m capable of. I’ve gained strength, skills, and most importantly confidence in myself. What started as four visits a month has turned into multiple times a week because I love how this gym makes me feel. 10/10 recommend.

I found my fitness home at Austin Women's Boxing Club! Great facility, fantastic coaches, and the support of an amazing inclusive group of women! At last, getting fit is also fun!

Came to a beginner workshop (no prior boxing experience) because I was curious and interested - ended up loving it! It’s been about a month now and AWBC is a supportive environment to work out and learn boxing technique. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get into the sport or get a good workout in! But what I love the most is the sense of community and how welcoming everyone is!! Best gym experience I’ve had

I love this place!!! I’ve been going to the beginner classes for about a month and I wish I lived closer so I could go more often! I’m super out of shape and I have never done anything like boxing before so I was a little nervous at first but everyone is so kind and welcoming. It’s such a good workout for all fitness levels and lots of fun! Recommending to all of my friends!

AWBC is the best gym I've ever had the pleasure of being a member at! The classes are challenging and rewarding and every instructor is incredibly knowledgable and supportive: striking the perfect balance between fun exercise and hard work. But what truly sets it apart from any other gym is the community. Each person is a friendly face and a true sense of empowerment flows freely in every class and interaction. I'm lucky to have found such a special gym and look forward to much more time spent here.6/5 stars!!

The people in my life are probably sick of hearing me talk about how much I love Austin Women’s Boxing Club — but I’ll never stop!!! It’s one of my favorite places to be.I joined AWBC two years ago, looking for a new way to work out that didn’t feel like a chore. I found that, and so much more! Attending classes quickly became my favorite part of the day, and in the last couple years, I’ve hit fitness goals that have always felt out of reach.But this gym became so much more than just a workout space. Boxing has been incredibly empowering for me. It helped me reconnect with my body in ways I didn’t think were possible anymore, finding joy and strength where I had felt disconnected for many years. For that alone, I’m endlessly grateful. A large part of that transformation is due to the amazing, supportive community here. The members and the coaches all love this space so much, and it shows in the magical energy you feel when you walk through the doors. I always leave in a better mood than I showed up with. I feel so lucky to have found a place filled with the coolest, kindest, most genuine, and fun people ever!If you're looking for an inclusive gym with friendly coaches, engaging classes, and welcoming members, I can't recommend AWBC enough. And trust me, punching things is the MOST fun!

I joined Austin Women’s Boxing Club in December 2022 looking for a fun way to get into shape and to help me regain a sense of strength after a tumultuous year. What I found was so much more than a gym - Coach Julia has cultivated a wonderful community here. I quickly found myself signing up for 4-5 classes a week and looking forward to seeing familiar faces in the group. I even requested changes to my schedule at work to accommodate additional boxing classes. I love all of the coaches and each of their unique teaching styles. Their passion for the sport comes through in the attention to detail and sincere and individualized feedback they provide. I love coming here and interacting with absolutely anyone. I can genuinely say that this is one of the most supportive, kindest, welcoming, and inclusive groups of individuals I’ve ever met, and I look forward to coming to the gym every day and always leave with a smile.

i joined awbc in january of this year and it is one of the best decisions i could have done for my physical and mental health. this place is perfect for anyone whether you have a lot of experience or none at all, it tests everyone at their own level and you never have to feel like you aren’t keeping up. i had zero experience when i started and i felt very welcomed by the community. if you are thinking of coming to a beginner class this is your sign to go for it!

2024-11-26T18:40:34.181Z

Austin Women's Boxing Club is a breath of fresh air. The coaches are welcoming and easy to talk to. I feel invigorated when I leave not only from the killer workout but also from the supportive community there. I wish I found this place sooner.

2024-11-21T00:01:23.623Z

There's a reason Austin Women's Boxing Club was voted the best gym in town. Not only is it a great workout; the community is wonderful! I joined about a month ago and have felt so welcomed and supported. Highly recommend!

Austin Women’s Boxing Club is a life-changing, game-changing community.I joined AWBC in April 2023, seven months postpartum and in the worst shape of my life. Hoping only for a high quality workout, I found that and so much more. The coaches are best in class. The community is unparalleled in terms of inclusivity, mutual support, and positivity. The boxing at AWBC is accessible to all levels of physical fitness and dedication, whether you’re a lifelong athlete hoping to compete or a mom trying to squeeze in a ferocious workout between life’s millions of myriad demands. In any class you can expect to find novices and experts, someone to learn from, someone who can learn from you. In my time here, I have reached personal fitness and boxing milestones previously unthinkable. I have healed my body and gained strength, skills, and discipline. I have found friends and mentors. Most importantly, I have gained confidence and mental and spiritual fortitude. Under the guidance of this outrageously cool community, the drive to improve and excel never diminishes. I am not the same person I was when I started at AWBC and for that I am deeply grateful.AWBC because beauty and strength are not antonyms. AWBC because this is battle. AWBC because girl power.

I love AWBC! I’ve been coming here since May and am hooked. AWBC is super accessible for folks who are just wanting to get off the couch and in shape (me) while also offering high quality for those who are really into boxing. There’s a colored band system (kinda like karate) so you can set personal goals at your own pace. Also, not just boxing classes, but also strength, yoga, and various workshops like learning to do pushups, pull-ups, and general self-defense. Very welcoming and amazing community!

I've been going to this gym on and off for a few years now, and my love for this place has only grown! The format of this gym (and the coaches) will work for you no matter what you want to get out of it. Whether you want to focus on strength and fitness, building up cardio and endurance, or do real contact work, you can build your own path! As far as the gym itself goes, it's the cleanest fitness studio I've ever stepped foot in. The members all love this gym and take excellent care of it, and so do the coaches. It's such an inclusive space, no matter your skill level, your body type, your goals. I love AWBC!

2024-08-03T00:09:03.124Z

Here's a polished version of your review:I joined AWBC a month ago expecting a typical gym experience—take some classes, get in better shape, and hopefully stay entertained. What I found was so much more. AWBC has proven to be a true community. In this short time, I’ve made some amazing friends.Every class offers a supportive and challenging environment. The coaches are experts at their craft, excelling at keeping you motivated and pushing you to your limits. I've learned so much—including where the liver is located and how to punch it effectively.The facilities are pristine, with a lot of impressive equipment packed into a well-organized space. Joining AWBC has been an amazing journey, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for more than just a gym.

2024-07-24T20:29:40.737Z

It’s been about 7 months since I started taking classes at AWBC and it’s made such an impact on both my physical and mental health. The coaches put a lot of intention behind their work and it shows in every class. I look forward to improving on my form and technique over time. There’s no other gym I’ve been to in Austin that has an environment that’s as supportive and encouraging as AWBC!

2024-07-24T16:23:14.025Z

You may ask yourself how a women’s only gym focusing on a niche sport won “Best Gym in Austin” this year, but the answer is simple - it really is THAT good. Aside from the high quality USA Boxing coaching and the nationally ranked competition team, the camaraderie and sisterhood of this place is what makes it special. I have played women’s contact sports for many years, and the environment cultivated at AWBC is what makes it stand out above all other leagues. Members range from teens to 60s, yet all are challenged to their appropriate level in the classes. I have built friendships here, and had the opportunity to punch those friends in the face. What could be better! Take an intro class, and see for yourself!

2024-07-17T17:17:58.645Z

I joined AWBC about two months ago and I love this gym!! The instructors (and other members!!) are very supportive and encouraging, but also knowledgable. As a newer member, I really like that there are Boxing Basics classes and strength workshops. I’ve never had as much fun working out as I do at AWBC. I’m really excited to see how much stronger/better at boxing I get and to become further involved in the community as I continue with AWBC!

2024-07-16T20:35:23.976Z

AWBC has made such a positive impact in my life, and I can’t recommend it highly enough. I love this community so much and boxing here is not only an amazing workout, but also a great emotional outlet and way to make friends. I feel supported by the coaches to make and achieve personal goals, and after years of going to these classes I still always feel motivated to want to get better. Thank you AWBC for being the best gym ever!

2024-07-11T18:52:31.372Z

AWBC has been crowned best gym in Austin for a reason! The classes are always fun and dynamic, the instructors are passionate and enthusiastic about what they do, plus there’s so much more just beyond taking classes, getting fit, and learning how to punch, the community there is unmatched to anywhere else I’ve been, and there’s always fun activities, challenges, or events going on! I’ve been a member now for almost 2 years and am still so grateful I gave it a shot one day

2024-07-11T16:11:14.467Z

This is my second month going to AWBC and I can't express how happy I am. Everyone is so welcoming and willing to help. I love that the coaches are always pushing you to do better while also keeping in mind your fitness level. Before joining, I had no boxing experience, but I'm learning. I'm truly happy and grateful for finding AWBC.

2024-07-09T21:13:27.569Z

Been training at AWBC for about a year now and couldn’t be happier with my experience there. The workouts are incredible, the instructors are all super knowledgeable and approachable, there are plenty of classes each week to accommodate a variety of schedules/skill levels, it truly feels like an inclusive/safe environment, and there’s a real sense of community amongst the members. Finally, I found a gym where I actually look forward to and genuinely enjoy the classes! We have fun *and* we work hard!

2024-07-08T18:12:22.757Z

Absolutely incredible community of so many fantastic individuals encouraging each other to reach their goals!

2024-06-29T01:13:26.948Z

I started coming to this gym in 2021 and it's only been getting better! The coaches are kind and attentive, the classes are amazing, and it's the most inclusive exercise space I've ever been in. 10/10, would absolutely recommend!🥊

2024-04-11T02:51:29.880Z

One of the best decisions I’ve ever made was going to this gym. Boxing is one of the best sports for your mind and body, and at AWBC they make it so easy to get started. The coaches are so respectful, nice, and welcoming but they also encourage you to do the best you can. I’m 14 and I’ve been coming for about 10 months now (in June it’ll be a year) and I’ve made so much progress that wouldn’t have happened if it wasn’t for AWBC. I’m so grateful for the people I’ve surrounded myself with at this gym and it’s only positive vibes. I totally recommend giving it a shot. (You might totally get addicted to it like I did lol)
