His attention to each and every client is what sets him apart. He teaches real boxing fundamentals, and has a passion for the sport pro-athletes would admire."

"If you’ve been contemplating starting boxing or have been doing it for years, the pound gym is your place. Having never done boxing before in my life, I was so nervous to start. But as soon as I set foot into the gym, I felt incredibly welcomed. There’s folks of all different skill types so you won’t feel out of place. Duane is an amazing coach who caters to everyones level. He is highly skilled and leads with clear communication. Every class is different so you’ll never grow tired like most types of class settings out there. Classes range from cardio, boxing, and all the way to hitting target areas. You’ll sweat, you’ll be challenged, and you’ll feel amazing afterwards. There’s classes everyday throughout various times to fit around any schedule. I’m so grateful to have found the pound gym, Duane, and the amazing coaches here."

"A quick read through Duane’s background will confirm that his boxing credentials are legit. But it’s his skill as an instructor that really distinguishes the experience at Pound Gym. Duane is a an excellent teacher who takes pride in his work and pushes members to be their best. The vibe is inclusive and inspiring and I’m proud to be learning the art of boxing at Pound."

"I have never stepped foot into a boxing gym before. I found The Pound Gym online and reached out. Duane was very inviting and friendly when I was unsure and had a ton of questions. I attended my first class at the beginning of May… I had no clue what to expect… and I’ve been hooked ever since! Everyone is very friendly and are all there to learn boxing and to get a great workout in. Duane has been very patient teaching the fundamentals to someone like myself that has never boxed a day in my life. He has been able to push and encourage me to do a little more and a little better every time I walk into the gym. I’m very happy I found The Pound Gym and am being taught the proper technique of boxing by a consummate professional like Duane!"

"We recently held a corporate event at the Pound Gym for about 30 employees. This event consisted of 3 separate custom boxing sessions. Our vision for this event was that it would align with our 2019 company theme of "Sweatin' The Details" and be an overall a good time for our employees. Duane B and his team far exceeded our expectations! Our teams had a wide range of boxing experience. Duane did a fantastic job of adjusting his instruction to the individual needs of each participant and encouraging our teams to push themselves beyond their comfort zone. The Pound Gym facility and equipment was clean and in great shape. And the overall vibe was AWESOME! As someone who had never boxed before this event, I felt comfortable and welcomed from the moment I entered the gym. In addition to our corporate event, I also attended one of Duane's early morning sessions. The Box+ Basics session was perfectly designed for individuals with different boxing experience and has encouraged me to try boxing for fitness again."
