Best Boxing Lessons Chicago Near Me

4worldlovers: Unanimous Boxing Gym started as a conversation between Trinidad Garcia and his then client Yuri Polyak over a beer during the Mayweather vs Maidana rematch in 2015. They both wanted to build a gym where they could showcase their love of the sport. Unanimous Boxing Gym opened its doors in June of 2016 with the idea of creating an inviting space for people of all levels and abilities to come enjoy and learn the art of boxing. We currently run a state of the art USA Boxing Sanctioned facility in Logan Square and offer an average of 8 classes daily to over 400 members. We focus on harnessing the fighter in everyone be it mental or physical.

“Unanimous Boxing Gym is about bringing boxing back to its heyday, the Golden Age of the 50’s where people gathered and a community was created around the sport of boxing.” -Trinidad Garcia

Classes are small to ensure we can give each student attention and form correction.

4worldlovers: World Premiere Play ‘Man in the Ring’ Much More than a Boxing Story

It sounds like fiction, but it’s a true story: A gay boxer insulted by his opponent unleashes fury in the ring, and his opponent–the champion–slips into a coma and dies. That’s what happened in March 1962 in a fight televised on ABC. Read More >

Gerardo Hernandez was the first fighter to fight in a boxing match representing Sam Colonna Boxing. He won the fight, recording the first victory for Sam Colonna Boxing.

Mind Body Defense uses kickboxing and self-defense as a vehicle to unlock the human potential of the modern professional. Mind Body Defense was created to serve those who want to improve their fitness through purposeful action. Our kickboxing classes integrate martial arts, boxing and fitness to create a full body workout to hone your skills, tone your body, increase your flexibility and stamina, and help you reach your fitness goals.

4worldlovers: Our workouts are for all ages, all abilities and all fitness levels. Every participant in class is encouraged to go at their own pace. If you need to stop, catch your breath, stretch or get a drink of water, it’s no big deal – everyone does it! Hop back in when you’re ready and we’ll be there right next to you cheering you on!


With all physical activity, there are risks. We encourage you to speak with a doctor before performing physical activity. As it pertains to our classes, we wrap your hands to prevent injury and show you the basic punches and exercises throughout class. If at any time you need assistance or more direction all you have to do is ask! The trainers interact with every person in class, not just stand up front like other gyms and studios, so it’s easy to ask question as you go. We can offer modifications as well. To put your mind at ease: you will never get hit in one of our classes. We are a no-contact workout.

We have gloves to borrow for your first time and you can purchase hand wraps here or bring your own. Hand wraps are required to use during class to protect your hands and wrists. We have water fountains in our clubs, and we encourage you to bring a water bottle and to drink plenty of water during and after class. The most important thing to bring with you is the attitude and belief that you can do anything you set your mind to.

Of course! We know the best things in life are best shared—including being nervous to try something new! Convince your friend, colleague, partner or family member to sweat it out with you and you will have an accountability partner for life. When reserving your class simply tell us who you’d like to bring, and we’ll make sure we reserve two bags.

When you arrive early before class, we use that time to get to know you and customize your experience. This is a great time to go over your goals and discuss any modifications you prefer due to an injury or based on your fitness level. If you’re feeling nervous about your first class, let us know, and we can take class with you or find unique ways to make it more comfortable!

We ask that you show up at least 30 minutes before your first class. We will give you a quick tour, so you know where everything is, show you to your locker and help you pick out your bag and first-time loaner gloves. You’ll select a pair of hand wraps (you can bring your own or purchase them here) and we’ll walk you through the basics of class as we wrap your hands. We don’t expect you to know how to wrap your hands for both comfort and safety, so we can help you on your first time or every time. Finally, before class starts, we’ll set you up with our trainer to show you how to throw the four basic punches that will be used throughout class. Best of all, if you ever get lost just go back to the basic jab, cross combination and a trainer will come by to show you any other technique.

Staying true to how boxers train, our workout starts with a warm-up, then moves into boxing or kickboxing rounds, and finishes strong building your foundational strength in your core. Boxing is a full-body workout and you can expect it to incorporate your arms, back, chest, core, legs and glutes in the various movements and combinations.

Our classes are a total-body workout inspired by the sport of boxing. People of all ages, all abilities and all fitness levels are side by side in class with you—think young professionals, moms and dads, fitness first-timers, handicapped individuals, people trying to lose weight, gain muscle, get better and go at their own pace. Once the bell rings and class begins, all of your fears reside and the class experience truly becomes only about you and the heavy bag.
