WHY
OLD SCHOOL?
“Best” should mean more than a slogan. It should show up in the coaching, the athletes, the opportunities, the community, and the work happening in the gym every day.
One gym. Every level.
REAL BOXING.
REAL PATHWAYS.
Old School Boxing is one of Arizona's most complete boxing gyms because a person can walk in for a first lesson, build solid fundamentals, join the amateur team, and pursue professional competition without leaving the culture that developed them. Members who simply want fitness, confidence, discipline, and a demanding workout belong here too.
Active Competition
Old School develops competitive boxers and hosts the Old School Showdown, giving Arizona amateurs a USA Boxing-sanctioned platform to compete.
Kids & Youth Development
Young athletes learn boxing fundamentals, fitness, confidence, responsibility, and respect through structured coaching and community support.
GCU Club Boxing
Old School is the training home for GCU Club Boxing, connecting college athletes with an authentic boxing environment and experienced coaching.
Community Investment
The Old School Boxing Youth Foundation expands access to training and equipment. In 2026, Old School was selected for a USA Boxing Foundation Grants4Gyms award.
Accessible Entry Point
The first session is free. Open-gym membership starts at $60 per month, giving Phoenix boxers a practical way to train in a real fight gym.
What our standard looks like
MORE THAN
A WORKOUT.
Coaching That Meets You Where You Are
New boxers need clear fundamentals. Competitive athletes need honest correction and purposeful rounds. Our training options create a path for both.
A Gym Connected to Competition
Our amateur boxing program, professional fighter roster, and Old School Showdown keep the gym connected to real competition.
Opportunity Beyond the Ring
Old School supports GCU Club Boxing, youth development, community events, coaching education, and pathways for USA Boxing athletes and officials.
A Phoenix Gym With Its Own Identity
This is not a franchise fitness concept. Old School is a locally built boxing gym, established in Phoenix in 2017 and shaped by the people who train here.
Straight answers
CHOOSING A
BOXING GYM.
Is Old School good for beginners?
Yes. You do not need prior experience or competition goals. Coaches start with stance, movement, defense, basic punches, conditioning, and gym etiquette.
Is this boxing or boxing fitness?
It is real boxing training. Fitness improves through boxing, but members learn the sport's technique, movement, defense, conditioning, and culture—not only a choreographed workout.
Can my child train at Old School?
Yes. The kids boxing program is designed around age-appropriate instruction, fundamentals, confidence, discipline, and fitness.
Can I compete for the gym?
Athletes interested in competition can speak with the coaching team about experience, consistency, readiness, USA Boxing requirements, and the path toward sanctioned amateur bouts.
Do you train professional fighters?
Yes. Old School supports active professional fighters while maintaining a welcoming pathway for people walking into a boxing gym for the first time.
How do I decide if it is right for me?
Come experience the room. Your first session is free, so you can meet the coaches, see how the gym operates, and decide based on the actual training.
