Blacksburg Boxing and Fitness

Fantastic experience: I had an amazing experience with Blacksburg Boxing and Fitness. All of the coaches were very helpful and I learned a lot. The owner is very kind and extremely personable. I would highly recommend to anyone hoping to get in to boxing! 5/5

Fantastic experience: Awesome place to train with a welcomeing atomosphere. I just come to open gym myself but after meeting Nick, the head coach, and some others I feel sure the classes would be great. I see some of the boxers training during open gym hours and theyre def skilled. Great place to visit regardless if you want to do open gym or boxing/fitness classes

Fantastic experience: I first heard of this gym after the open house they hosted in January. I was intimidated at first of the idea of boxing, but after the first class, I no longer felt that way at all! Everyone is super nice and welcoming! All of the instructor are helpful and help to have a great work out. Even though I like the boxing aspect of class a lot, I feel like the 'Fighter Fit" classes are super great for a overall workout in general. I love that Blacksburg Boxing and Fitness a local family business who are very passionate about the community and wellness. I would highly recommend this gym to anyone looking to find a good wellness community and feeling stronger. At 24, I feel like over the past few months this gym has helped me get back into the best shape I have been in since high school.

Fantastic experience: This place is amazing! All of the staff is so friendly and helpful. The classes are always so much fun and really make you sweat. The instructors are always there to motivate and help you in such a positive way! I am not in the best shape but I never feel bad or judged about modifying any of the exercises only ever encouraged to keep moving and push myself! All the members of the gym are also so supportive and friendly. Honestly the best atmosphere of any gym I’ve ever been to!

Fantastic experience: This is the Gym you're looking for in the NRV. Kevin and his staff are amazing. Locally owned and operated.

Fantastic experience: This place has made a positive difference in my physical and mental health. They offer a variety of classes, encourage beginners, and they ALWAYS deliver a great workout. Each class is challenge by choice, so there is not pressure of competing against anyone else. You are encouraged to push yourself to your limits! 10 stars for BBNF!

Fantastic experience: 10/10 recommend this gym for all skill levels including no prior boxing experience! The coaches and staff are amazing at making you feel welcomed, supported, and encouraged with each work out. You truly feel like family at this family owned gym. The best part is that the environment is fun and judgement free. I love that the classes where I don’t have spar or make contact with others. This gym has helped me not only physically but drastically improved my mentally health as well. I am forever thankful for this gym in the Blacksburg community. Highly recommend!! Your first week is free!!

Fantastic experience: Love this gym! Everyone is incredibly kind, welcoming, and the staff is knowledgable. Fun place to get a great workout in!

Fantastic experience: I'm new to the boxing scene but decided to try it out because some of my kids had joined and were big fans. You have nothing to lose since the first week is free and it gave me a great opportunity to find my feet and meet the team. Emily Taylor and Kevin Bowen are amazing instructors and have been so accommodating at helping me find workouts that fit my age and skill level. The smaller class sizes are a great way to learn as well as get to know others there at the gym. The skill levels vary so you can always find someone who knows more than you as well as others at your pace. I highly recommend you checking out BBNF!

Fantastic experience: Love this gym!

Fantastic experience: Great people, great place. Simple as that. If you’re a nervous new gym-goer, fear not - these folks are kind, friendly, and helpful and the gym has a variety of equipment and class options. And it’s pretty much impossible not to feel hyped about your workout once you’ve met the owner, Kevin - he’s always got an encouraging word for you!

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym, awesome workout, awesome people. Go check it out !

Fantastic experience: Great gym! All the staff and trainers are so nice and supportive. Don't be fooled by the name—anyone, even without boxing experience, can find classes that suit them. I've been going here for over three years, and it's the first time in my life that I've worked out consistently for so long (plus I lost 30 lbs by boxing).

Fantastic experience: I have never been to a gym that had more love and support for anyone that walked through the door. Whether you are new to gyms, just starting your health journey, recovering from injuries, or an expert and need a new gym this is for you. Every trainer, member, and even the owner Kevin are all so helpful and encouraging. For someone that use to have major gym intimidation I wish this was the first gym for me it wouldn’t have taken this long to get consistent. Highly recommend this place!

Fantastic experience: As a small family of three it is really important for us to spend time together. We recently moved to the area and our Saturday classes has helped create an amazing space for us to have fun and be healthy together.

Fantastic experience: Best Gym Ever! Kevin makes everyone feel like a valued member. No matter if you have boxed for years or never in your life, Blacksburg Boxing and Fitness provides fun & unique workouts that'll challenge anyone. First week is free, so how could you not give it a shot! Worth every penny. Let's Go!

Fantastic experience: The moment you step into this family-owned boxing gym, you feel the welcoming spirit that makes it truly special. It's not just a gym; it's a community where everyone, from beginners to seasoned athletes, is embraced and supported. The atmosphere is electric with positivity, and the coaches are not only knowledgeable but genuinely invested in your progress. They create a space where you can push your limits, learn, and grow, all while feeling part of a close-knit family. Whether you're here to train, get fit, or simply be part of an incredible community, this place is perfect for all levels. I couldn't be more grateful to be a part of it. This gym isn't just a place to work out; it's a home away from home!

Fantastic experience: I had a great experience attending classes at Blacksburg Boxing and Fitness! This was my first time trying boxing and Boxing 101 is a great class to start with. I would 10/10 recommend all of the classes, especially Fighter Fit. A special shout-out to all the amazing trainers ❤️

Fantastic experience: This was one of my favorite places in Blacksburg! The people are friendly and the classes are both challenging and fun. Classes for all skill levels are available. I would personally recommend at least 3-5 classes of the Boxing 101 if you’ve never thrown a punch before, since most classes have you punching a bag/the air at some point. Regardless, if you just want a high intensity workout, the Fighter fit classes are the way to go. Boxing skills and drills classes are also available for people who want to get better at boxing. These three were the only types of classes I attended, but there are many more to choose from. I thoroughly enjoyed my time here and would highly recommend that you try them out if you’re looking for a new gym or want to try an interesting new type of workout!

Fantastic experience: Updating my review after a year and a half of being business neighbors with BBF. Still 5stars & more if I could. These folks are the real deal. In addition to great workouts & help getting healthier.. they are caring, committed, passionate, creative, altruistic, family owned & oriented, knowledgeable. Kevin’s positivity is genuine & contagious. Definitely get in there & workout with them!

Fantastic experience: The Fighter-Fit class was a great workout! I was only in town for the week, but they were very hospitable. Nice facility, all kinds of boxing equipment, weightlifting area, and a ring. Shoutout to Jake Dennis for the instruction, it was fun!

Fantastic experience: This place is great. Great mix of people of all ages and fitness levels. Classes will get you in great shape, and they have a lot of different classes and different trainers. Very welcoming and price is very low for a boxing gym. Access to weightlifting and cardio equipment whenever the gym is open is a huge plus too.

Fantastic experience: What a fantastic facility. One minute in here and you can tell that the staff are pros. A well used and loved facility.

Fantastic experience: It was great, Boxing 101 was wonderful and Coach Nick was great. Will definitely sign up...

Fantastic experience: Amazing instructors!

Fantastic experience: One of my favorite parts of the town!! The staff are great and the gym is welcoming. The workout program never gets boring, and equipment necessary for boxing is there! So whether you're just starting or at an intermediate level, there is always a way to enhance your skills.

Fantastic experience: Figured I'd circle back around and update my original review to add some actual content (only 5 years later), but this is by far the best gym in the NRV. Kevin and his team are exceptional and do a fantastic job of making the environment welcoming and positive for people of all walks of life, ages, and skill levels. Whether you want to learn how to defend yourself, spar, or just get in shape, there is definitely something for everyone here.

Fantastic experience: It's a great place to go for boxing, everyone is very nice and welcoming and kevin is just the best.

Fantastic experience: There’s only 1 #1. I get a quality workout and I get boxing training I can not get anywhere else. Highly motivating to be around other motivated people. What sets this apart are the people. The right people are what make the difference

Positive experience: The bun of my spicy chicken was soggy and unedible!!!! I took one bite and threw it away. The waffle fries were hot and fresh. Sweet tea is always good.

Fantastic experience: The gym is happening !! The trainers are awesome and love it!! The energy is here!!

Fantastic experience: I went to BBnF for 4 years during my time in Blackburg. I can assure you they are worth every cent; going there was a high on those days spent reading and studying. The environment and people there were always friendly. Thank you Kevin & Family, Brant, D’Angelo, Coty, Logan; I hope I find a place like BBnF here in Chile (no luck yet)

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a fun and family atmosphere, plus a place to work your butt off and learn boxing this is an amazing place. The staff is super knowledgeable and friendly!

Fantastic experience: Blacksburg Boxing&Fitness will always be my gym of choice, Kevin and his team foster an encouraging and safe environment and I learn something new everyday in classes!

Fantastic experience: We stopped by to check out classes for our son. The owner took his time with us, explained everything and answered all of our questions. There's a huge variety of classes to choose from. We look forward to starting training next week.

Fantastic experience: This is the best gym I’ve ever been to! Everyone is extremely nice and motivating. Kevin the owner makes you feel so welcomed as soon as you walk in the door! All the coaches have a fun filled energy and gets you excited for your workouts. If you want a great place to workout, learn boxing, and be apart of a great group of people this is the place for you!

Fantastic experience: Great facility, lots of class options on top of the open gym and owner Kevin is an all-around fantastic guy. They knew their stuff!

Fantastic experience: Great gym. I really enjoy the morning workout classes. You don’t have to be an experienced boxer to get a good workout in!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic facility, different packages for different needs, and positive feedback and reinforcement from their people. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Today was my first day of Fighter Fit and it was hard but the instructor guided me through it all, explained the exercises and gave me plenty of modification ideas. Everyone was focused on their own workout so it was easy to focus on myself as well and do my own thing when I needed. Ill definitely be back.

Fantastic experience: The best gym I have ever been to. They make you feel like part of the family. For all fitness levels with no judgment. Proud to be apart of this gym!

Fantastic experience: First time boxing and it was something totally out of my comfort zone that I decided to try this year. The classes here made it fun! Friendly community and the trainers are awesome! I have tried most of the beginner's and intermediate classes and loved each one. Definitely recommended!

Fantastic experience: As a 67 year old online member I appreciate being able to benefit from the variety of boxing drills and conditioning exercises that are offered. Kevin Bowen truly is interested in his members. I always feel better after the online workouts he and his staff lead. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: I had a great time hitting the bags! I just wasn’t prepared for how demanding the Friday Frenzy workout was going to be. Felt great afterwards though!

Kevin runs a wonderful and welcoming business with only great trainers and encouraging attitudes. Wonderful place to go, with intense workouts and happy coaches. Get over here if you’re trying to build yourself, it’s a great place to do it.

Fantastic experience: I really love this gym. All employees are energetic and kind. Gym membership is affordable. Taking classes aren’t required but highly recommend. There’s classes for all skill levels and not all classes are necessarily boxing focused. The gym also has a wide variety of free weights where you can do your own workouts.

Fantastic experience: Since joining this gym in March, my experience has been amazing. They provide a safe environment and its more like a family. As a newcomer I felt welcome from the beginning and the owners ability to take out time to explain everything made me feel welcome. The energy in this space is amazing and I’ve see awesome results over the past 10 months from attending the Fighter Fit Classes at least twice a week. The trainers are also phenomenal!

Fantastic experience: Best gym in Blacksburg, hands down! All the trainers know how to get the best out of you in the classes they put together. Awesome energy with a family-like atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: A great way to mix up your workout. The equipment is great, well maintained, and clean. Every trainer is incredibly nice, welcoming, and hype you up through every exercise. Highly recommend for all fitness levels

Fantastic experience: BBF is the best gym in the NRV! There are classes for literally anyone and everyone at every skill level. I personally love zumba and low intensity! I’ve seen how much I’ve improved in terms of my health in six months of being a member! Kevin is the bomb!! I love going to a gym that has owners local to the area!! I highly recommend trying it out because you even get the first week free!

Fantastic experience: Great place to exercise! Kevin and his staff are awesome and always encouraging. Plenty of equipment and class variety so pretty sure everyone can find something that suits their needs. Lots of open gym time and space in case you'd prefer to do your own thing. Way more enjoyable than a traditional gym!

Fantastic experience: Blacksburg Boxing and Fitness is great local gym with great staff! Classes are fun and difficult with a great variety of them offered! They even offer online classes as well which is super convenient. They modified their indoor space to accommodate social distancing guidelines as well so you can feel safe while working out. They made a killer outdoor space as well to help accommodate more people's fitness journey, including bags, barbells and more. The winter months make it a little cold to do that though!! I would definitely recommend joining Blacksburg Boxing and Fitness whether it's online or in person to experience the experienced trainers and classes. You even get a free week! So no excuse!

Fantastic experience: Best gym with the best owners. They truly care about anyone who steps into their gym.

Fantastic experience: I've always been a fan of boxing since I was a kid, so when i heard that a boxing gym gym was opening in my hometown, I figured I'll give it a shot. Let me tell you something; these guys are AWESOME! The classes are fun but intense, and the trainers are friendly, humble and passionate about helping everyone with their goals. And when I was given the opportunity to be a volunteer coach, I jumped on it without hesitation as my way of giving back to the gym that gives so much to the community. Thank you Kevin and Augusta for bringing the "Sweet Science" to Tha Burg. Let's Gooo!!!!

Fantastic experience: I graduated from VT a year ago, and I can honestly say there’s no better deal than this gym. Whether it’s group classes, personal training, open gym, or sparring, this is the best bang for your buck! I wish I could go back to school and keep training with Kevin and the team!

Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms I've ever been to. Joining was easy and I was warmly greeted by the owner and his wife the first time I came for a workout and have called me by name every time I've walked in the door since. The trainers are friendly, patient and are always working hard with classes or members one on one. Kevin and his team do a great job at keeping the place clean and have all the equipment (including gloves!) you could ever need. Everyone in the gym is respectful, laid back and ready to get to work. This gym has definitely made Blacksburg feel a lot more like home. Even if you've never done any boxing before, and even if you have no interest in it, forget that planet fitness membership and join here.

Fantastic experience: Kevin and Augusta are the best! The best trainers, and most importantly, the nicest people you will ever want to meet! Their enthusiasm is genuine, because they genuinely love to inspire others to be the best they can be, no matter their level of fitness. They have worked hard to build their small business, and I appreciate everything they do for their members, the community, and even first time enthusiasts who have no idea what to expect. They will make you feel like part of the boxing family (and their family) as soon as you walk in!

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym run by honest, caring folks. The whole staff has been so welcoming to me, and I'm enjoying the classes. They make a real effort to get to know your name, and are quick to go out of their way to address any concerns you might have. Great variety of class offerings, both in levels and in times. Highly recommend!
