As a senior woman new to boxing, I took private lessons with Gary at Ballard Boxing and Fitness to learn proper technique and stay safe. He’s an outstanding trainer who made every session both challenging and enjoyable. Gary is knowledgeable, patient, and truly cares about his clients’ well-being. I got a great workout while learning solid boxing fundamentals. Highly recommend Gary — and Ballard Boxing and Fitness — to anyone wanting to learn boxing the right way and have fun doing it.

Gary makes you work hard but that’s why I keep coming back! Looking for a way to improve your health, book time in the ring. This is a great way to beat Parkinson’s .

I recently joined Ballard Boxing as a way to supplement my regular gym workout routine. And, I wasn't disappointed. Under the skillful eye of owner and trainer Gary Ballard, I am beginning to learn the basics of boxing. As an older adult for me, it's more about getting a great cardio workout, but I quickly realized it's a whole body workout. I have a new found respect for the strength and stamina needed to hold up your arms and punch and move around the ring. In short, Gary is the real deal... an accomplished retired professional boxer who makes the classes fun and he has a great personality. It's evident that Gary truly cares about all his students and is simply a genuinely kind person. Thank you, Gary

I'm a stay-at-home dad that needed his but whipped and help to stay in shape. Gary has been an absolutely amazing trainer and not only helped me to get back into shape but also learn a very valuable skill in boxing. I can't recommend training with Gary enough and my advice to anyone out there, it's worth every penny and mental effort to work with Gary.

I have been taking group boxing classes with Gary Ballard for a month now and I'm LOVING IT! It's a great hour workout and Gary makes the classes challenging but fun. The people in each class are all so friendly, are of all ages and experience, and Gary adds a personal touch by getting to know each and every one of his members. I love that you can work as hard as you want in each class - the more you put in to it, the more you get out of it!

I work with a client who is partially disabled from the waist down. I have nothing but good things to say about this gym and Gary, his personal trainer. Watching Gary work with him has been one of the most satisfying experiences I ever gotten to observe. Truly a privilege! As fair as boxing instructors go Gary demonstrates a perfect amount of toughness and grit while maintaining the right amount of patience and compassion.
