Brick City Boxing LA - Pasadena, California

Liz Rampe

I was in Pasadena for work and wanted a good boxing workout while on travel. I got a GREAT workout at Brick City and learned some tips from an actual pro boxer! I couldn't believe my luck that Joe Hanks was my trainer! He put us through the same drills and conditioning that he went through when he was training and helped improve my jabs, stance, and defense. As a trainer, Joe is kind but firm and has a good sense of humor. I highly recommend Brick City and taking a class from Joe. I'll certainly be back when I'm in Pasadena again.

This is a go hard or go home professional establishment! Very motivating and they push you to the best you! Nonjudgmental and encourages success. Joe (Pro Boxer/Owner/Trainer) is very knowledgeable and hilarious, and takes your health and getting into shape seriously. He has a major hand in my improving my boxing stance, punch depth and drastic weight loss safely and effectively the past 2 weeks. He can look at you and tell when you've eaten bad, had too many carbs, etc just by your stance and punches!! No frills or bull ?. Just forthright owner that will get you to the best shape of your life...it hurts and burns but the level of professionalism and awareness is bar none. This isn't a so called gym. This is pure East Coast Brick City Jersey in your face get in the best shape of your life boxing...and the music is the best!!!

Coach Joe, Kia and Mo are great! Helping me with my technique, speed, stance, defense, toning- everything I want. Plus the weights, jump rope, bags, ring- all the tools to get better everyday! 5 stars!!

I did a drop in class this past week because I was in town for a wedding. And I came in with little to no expectations other than to get a good work out in. I have been boxing (on and off) for 8 years and thought that I had the basics down. Even though I was there for only one day, damn did it humble me up on what I thought I knew about technique.

Joe (pro boxer) not only worked with me on my form but gave me some very insightful feedback that I never received from my previous coaches. The level of instruction, knowledge, and passion that this gym and he has is very unmatched. I have been to many boxing gyms in Northern California, Oregon, and in Washington state. It is very difficult to find a gym that's authentic, works on techniques, inviting, and with a coach who knows what they're talking about and how to deliver it. This gym has all of that. It's not at all pretentious and it is extremely inviting. Joe is probably one of the most humble coaches I have had the privilege to meet. It was also nice that I was by myself so it felt like I had personal training the entire day.

I told my boyfriend to sign up for his own drop in class the day after I went. And my bf is very passionate about boxing and have coached some classes of his own. I didn't go with him because I was too hungover lol but my bf came back to our airbnb just raving about his drop in class and having one on one w/ Joe. Even my bf agreed that this gym is a rare find. We have been at boxing gyms that doesn't even address technique or coaches cherry pick who to focus on as potential fighters and ignore the "regular folks" in class. But this gym doesn't do that.

Joe - we will be waiting for you to open a location in the Washington area! Thank you again for inviting my boyfriend and me with open arms to your gym. We not only left the gym with sore shoulders, we left with invaluable feedback that we will carry with us to work on our techniques more.

So whether you want to do a drop in class or get a membership - just don't hesitate and come through.

Professional Boxer Joe Hanks has created a sensational experience at Brick City boxing. It is an exceptionally clean, trendy gym with a great crowd who attend classes. Brick City boxing is a wonderful place if you want to get a great workout, learn a little boxing, and meet awesome people!

I joined two weeks ago and without changing my diet I’ve lost 2% body fat (21% to 19%). Just some good old boxing style workouts and fun times with Joe.

Joe Hanks (Pro Boxer/Owner/Trainer) has created a unique, definitive, and elevated experience at Brick City Boxing. Joe's winning combination of leadership, compassion, and authority is markedly executed in the Youth Fitness program. Within 1 week, my 12 year-old's self-confidence, self-awareness, and fitness aspirations were completely transformed for the better. Beyond happy with and grateful for Brick City!
