THEBOX Training Center - Costa Mesa, California

Art Campos

This place the hidden jewl of boxing in the Orange County Los Angeles County area. Where do I start! Coach Mario Yuka has trained 17 world Champions and is currently training Cavez Jr. for his next fight! Coach Jesus Soto Kara's is a 3 time world champion who still owns the record for most punches thrown in a fight! Other pro athletes come there to train with the rest of the talented staff that works there. If you are looking to get in shape, lose a couple of pounds. This is the place. There are members as young as 6 years old, and some that are in there 70's. Age and shape do not matter. Call them or stop by. You will not regret it. The best decision I have ever made. It is a life changer.

After a few months of training and seeing great results for myself, I felt compelled to leave a review for Mario/The Box gym. As a former college athlete, I’ve trained at many other facilities, including boxing gyms. The Box has a lot more to offer than most gyms. Loaded with different types of punching bags and boxing equipment, but also weight lifting machines, free weights, kettle bells, cardio machines and more. All top quality equipment, clean and great condition.

Beyond the quality of the gym is the quality of people at the gym. All coaches are exceptional, extremely knowledgeable and genuinely care about your personal goals and development. All members are welcoming, very cool people from all different ages and backgrounds.

I’ll wrap up with this, if you’re looking for a gym and considering The Box, check it out. See the gym, meet the people and try class. I highly recommend and guarantee you will be happy you did. Cheers.

The box is a great gym for all levels. From beginner to experienced athletes that wish to pursue boxing - this gym has it all. Every Coach including Coach Soto Karass is a great trainer. The community is friendly and the gym is welcoming!

I absolutely love coming to this gym! From the very first time I stepped foot in the gym, everyone was extremely welcoming. One of the biggest reasons why I love going there!
I also love that the classes are smaller, so it makes it feel more like a training session. All the coaches are amazing and really give a great workout!
I feel like I've made new friends and that's one of the reasons why I truly look forward to going ?

The box is a true boxing gym! Mario, Soto, Yuka, Joey, Tan, Clabe, Jeff are the best in the business. Come for a workout, leave with a lifestyle change and whole squad of people/coaches/friends in your corner. Great people, great community, great gym! 10/10 recommend.

I consider this gym my second home. The management is family to me at this point and i'm down from 206 to 177 pounds, know how to box and can defend myself pretty damn well. Do not skip on this gym! Kudos to Mario and all the coaches for building something special.

“THEBOX” is the best boxing gym. I’ve been coming here 3 months now and I gotta say I now see this less of a gym and more of a family. The moment you walk in you see friendly faces and highly motivated people. If you wanna sweat hard and drop weight fast, I highly recommend you to join the class, the age range is wide between 15-70. The owners a great guy really friendly.
