Why Judah Pride

A boxing gym, not a boxing-themed workout

There is a difference between hitting a bag and learning to box. One is cardio with music. The other is a skill you keep. We teach the second one, and we teach it to whoever walks in, at whatever level they walk in at.

Taught, not thrown in

Stance and footwork come before the first combination. Nobody spars until they are ready for it.

Four to adult

Tiny Fist starts at four. Adults start at zero. The room holds both without watering either down.

Small groups

Semi-private runs two to four students to one coach when you want correction on every rep.

Character first for kids

The youth programs are built around discipline, confidence, and self-esteem. The boxing is how we get there.

The programs

Six ways in

Every program runs on the same floor with the same coaches. The only question is where you start.

The room

What is actually in the building

No mirrors-and-mood-lighting routine. This is equipment that exists because the training needs it.

A full-size boxing ring

Not a padded corner. A real ring, the same dimensions you would step into on fight night.

Heavy bags

Multiple stations so nobody waits their turn to work.

Speed bags

Rhythm, timing, and shoulder endurance, the old way.

Double-end bags

The bag that hits back. Accuracy, head movement, and reaction.

Strength equipment

Conditioning and strength work built into the programs, not bolted on.

Locker rooms

Come straight from work or school and change on site.

How it works

Three steps, one phone call

There is no app, no sign-up funnel, and no contract to read before you can ask a question.

Coaching

Led by Tyrone Judah

Judah Pride was founded and is led by Tyrone Judah. The coaching staff brings backgrounds in competitive boxing, beginner instruction, youth development, and personal training, which is why the same room can hold a seven-year-old and a fighter preparing to compete.

Competitive boxing

Technique taught by people who have been on the other side of the ropes.

Youth development

Coaching built for kids, not adult sessions with the volume turned down.

Personal training

Strength and conditioning that supports the boxing instead of competing with it.
