Level Up Boxing & Fitness

Positive experience: Really enjoying my time training at this gym. I do wish there were more options to train in the morning tho. I’m taking time off work and focusing on training in the meantime and have nowhere to train until 5pm.

Fantastic experience: You’ll be in a facility with top-notch instruction and an unparalleled vibe. The human side of this gym is what makes it so special to me. I have yet to experience it anywhere else, despite having been to many countries and multiple gyms. I started training at Level up around the pandemic. I already had fight experience but never seen next level in terms of instruction. I had taken 4 free trials at various places to determine whether or not I would continue to pursue fighting. 10 minutes into the class I was sold. He, along with the team got me from a losing record to a regional title and a renewed self-esteem. Coach Jason was the first person I’d met in the parking lot while he was headed out. Fast forward 3 years later he has been the mentor I’ve always needed. The same exact statement could come from so many other members, both competitors and non-competitors. Whether you’re looking to compete, throw a few punches to stay fit, or give your children an outlet, I wouldn’t pass up on the opportunity.

Fantastic experience: Great gym with good fighters

Fantastic experience: Most loving place ever. It’s family in there.

Negative experience: Decided not to try my son here soley based on the unprofessional comments made by the owner, in response to bad reviews. Potential customers are paying attention to how you handle customers. ✌

Negative experience: Very unprofessional business. Coaches disrespect students for personal reasons, and management fails to address the situations professionally. Will definitely take my business elsewhere.

Fantastic experience: I started training here on the day after MLK's bday. Unskilled at boxing or muay thai. And I can say, the coaches are the "real deal". They walk it like they talk it, and never make U feel beneath them. They add humor and seriousness 2 the training that makes U wanna come back, day after day. Not sure how other gyms work, but Level Up is the gold standard 4 me personally. Anytime I struggle, the coaches lift me up. Their patience is unparalleled. I will never stop training here, and I'm 49 going on 50. Everyone who's interested in self defense or body conditioning and fitness should train here...

Fantastic experience: I attended the muay thai class there for about a year. Unfortunately due to some set backs I had to cancel my membership. Coach Jason is a dynamite Coach and extremely knowledgeable. I would recommend this Muay Thai gym to anyone who is looking for a technique, style, and accuracy. Hoping to get back there soon.

Fantastic experience: Level Up: Boxing & Fitness is an ASP Certified Training Center.

Fantastic experience: Level Up has been a dream of mine for some time. To create a place where people can train hard, and love doing it. Also the majority of gyms in the area are Jiu Jitsu schools that added Striking. We are unique in the sense that we are an all Striking school. We also put a strong focus on our conditioning. We have 3 different Strength and Conditioning Trainers all with unique and proven methods. I have been a striking coach for , Boxers, National Kickboxing Champions, Muay Thai fighters, and Professional MMA fighters for over 5 years. I've studied Martial Arts since the age of 6 and have trained in many different forms. I truly believe that through studying so many different styles and applications of those styles I'm able to find techniques that work for everyone individually. I'm extrememely grateful to be here at Level Up everyday, and look forward to helping our students reach their goals.

Fantastic experience: What's been more important to me in my many years of doing Martial Arts has always been the people more so then the facility. The people I train with and the people who instruct me. At Level Up Boxing and Fitness I finally found both. Not only do I get the great facility, but I get an awesome family. Coach Jason, the Staff and my fellow students are great motivators as well as instructors. I just can't say enough about what a great place Level Up is to come and learn all you can about Boxing, Kickboxing and just Fitness in general. Oh and by the way...... Coach Jason was the reason my Son, after only training with Coach Jason a short time, won 2nd place in the Nationals (World Kickboxing Association of USA)!

Fantastic experience: Great team

Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms in the DMV period. Great coaching and great facility. You will improve if you put in the work

Fantastic experience: We attended the Intro to Boxing class and it was fantastic! Great environment, fun workout, helpful instruction, friendly people. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: My son takes classes there, and I had been looking for a place like this for him for a while. It's a good facility with great instructors.

Fantastic experience: Very fun and people friendly, they actually care.

Fantastic experience: Great center for Muay Thai, Boxing and fitness. The gym environment is awesome and is very inviting for all demographics and skill levels. Coach Jason is a genius when it comes to striking and also is a talented designer and artist which is on display throughout the facility.

Fantastic experience: Everyone there is so nice have great service

Negative experience: The service at Level up boxing is extremely terrible. I called to have my son's account closed due to school. The gentlemen that answered the phone told me that I could pause the account instead of closing it and the manager would reach out to me to see if I was still interested in a couple months. That's not what happened afterwards. Not only did I get charged for the month, they charged me twice. Which I had to call several times in order for them to fix the problem. After that I was billed every month. Remind you, my account was supposed to be in pause status, yet I was billed for service. Every month I had to call to have them reverse the charge. It's completely ridiculous. I was billed June 6th and once again, I called to have them reverse my charge. A woman picked up the phone and told me it would be fixed. I called today, the woman I spoke to earlier in the week answered the phone and placed me on hold, and never came back. I called them back and the phone went immediately to voicemail. They refuse to deal with the situation. This is the worst customer service I've ever experienced. Every employee gives you a different answer regarding how things operate. No one has a concept of what they're doing and professionalism is nowhere to be found. You should know your customers accounts and what status they're in. I shouldn't have to call every month to have you fix a charge. If you're billing me every month when exactly is my account in pause? Who is doing the billing? Apparently they don't know what they're doing and shouldn't be handling it. It takes no time to issue a refund. It is not that complicated to do. I shouldn't have to call you several times in order for this transaction to be fixed. I've never been more frustrated with a company than I am with Level up boxing. But I guess this is what happens when you have a boxer running a business that requires professionalism and logic. Don't waste your time going to this gym. The people operating this business are unprofessional. You can find a better gym that has better customer service and knows how to communicate with their clientele.

Fantastic experience: I love coming every Tuesday and Thursday to not only blow off some steam but just to interact with everybody which is a very friendly environment

Fantastic experience: ...I had the pleasure of attending their Spar Wars...what an awesome time had in a fun and safe atmosphere...

Fantastic experience: Great place, been there for 3(?) years and the coaches and the environment is great

Fantastic experience: Very fun and people friendly, they actually care. Tones of different kinds of people with different fitness levels and even stuff for kids. The classes are definitely worth the $ you pay and the coaches will help motivate you to help reach your goals. Fun time.

Fantastic experience: Great place

Fantastic experience: Best trainer on the world work here and when this virus is over you’ll see me soon

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym, boxing and Muay Thai classes are great! This gym helped me lose a bunch of weight. I will be returning as soon as I can!

Fantastic experience: Best coaching I've ever had in any sport. It also helps that it's a friendly place and the members will quickly make you family.

Fantastic experience: Great place, my sons train there. Coach Carlos Catania, 4th degree BB in BJJ is an awesome coach. Really good space with a variety of training partners. A lot of stroking classes too. This place is the whole package for those who want to train in MMA.

Fantastic experience: Excellent boxing and training gym. Several pro-level fighters go there and will do personal training sessions as well as group classes. Instructors have years of experience and are very encouraging. Great place for any experience level.

Fantastic experience: This has been the best experience going into a gym as new member. They treat you like family right away. Everyone takes the time to answer any question you may have. Dallis, Erin, Bre, Luther, Al, and Jason I can not thank you enough!!

Positive experience: Id give it a 4.5 ☆ Solid gym. Great facility. Professional. Organized. They have a good system in place. I reccomend it for Novice and Mid Level fighters. It seems to be more Kickboxing centric than traditional Boxing. They also have a great H.I.I.T. work out. I believe they call it "Befit".

Fantastic experience: Before I started training in the Spring of 2010, I would never have considered myself an athlete. I never imagined that I, a scientist, would step into the ring and compete. Towards the end of the summer of 2011, Coach Jason Farrell, then at Crazy 88, asked if I wanted to train a little harder and compete in sparring exhibitions. At the time I was very insecure with my striking abilities even after training for over a year, but Coach Jason believed I was ring ready and that the experience would help me grow. He was right! Its 2018 now and for the last 8 years we've been competing up and down the east coast and all over the world. We've fought nationally: Virginia, New Jersey, New York, and Florida. Training at Level up has even taken me to fight in Mexico, Spain, Italy, and even Belarus! Up next is Canada. As coach Jason puts it, “We just keep chipping away everyday...Its a never ending experiment.” In the last 8 years, Coach Jason has dedicated thousands of hours of instruction, coaching, and mentoring. What I like most about working with him is that he will work even more than I train to get me ready for a competition. If I’m at the gym training, he is also there coaching and helping me get better. Outside the gym, Jason is always watching tape and will send me footage fights to study. I have been a spectator and participant at numerous boxing and kickboxing events and it’s a fact that Coach Jason’s students have the best striking skills. My goals right now are to continue to develop my striking skills and become professional athlete while working my scientist job full time. I’m so confident that I will keep on making more goals and achieving them under Coach Jason Farrell at Level Up.

Fantastic experience: I found level up in August of 2014 because I wanted to box and lose weight. I looked at many options nearby, walked into level up first since it was relatively close and decided this was the place I wanted to be. I love this place it's a great environment to learn and work out in. I have been coming to this gym for 3 years and will continue to do so until I no longer can. Thank you Coach Jason for giving me that first boxing class those years ago; it was a stepping stone into a healthier lifestyle.

Fantastic experience: Any workout at Level Up I've had was strenuous and exhausting, but I was glad I went. The trainers and staff are really encouraging and friendly. The environment is positive. All in all, it's one of, if not the best place to learn a martial art or get in amazing shape.

Fantastic experience: First things first the culture at Level Up is extremely inclusive, diverse, friendly, plus they're safety & training oriented. It's impressively a 50/50 ratio of men and women - unheard of in the martial arts world. Level Up has BY FAR the BEST jiu jitsu instruction I've ever experienced with Sijara Eubanks. Coach Jason's striking is the best in the DC/Maryland/Virginia region - he's coached amazing fighters and knows everyone there is to know in the Muay Thai/Boxing/MMA world. Highly recommend you drop in if you're passing through - it's only a $20/day drop in fee. If you live in the area... just know it's worth an hour commute each way for me.

Fantastic experience: I started coming here just about a year ago. Other gyms really made me feel unwelcomed as a newbie. I was pretty self-conscious about slowing down classes and just felt generally unwanted at these gyms... like I was a burden. I take my physical fitness very seriously, so why would I waste my time at these places if they weren't going to show me any form of respect? So far, I have experienced nothing but patience from the other fighters and coaches alike. When I couldn't hold the pads right, the coaches showed me how. When I couldn't throw a punch right, the pad holder didn't get frustrated, they corrected me. Even when I felt like I just wasn't picking up Boxing, the coaches and managers helped to motivate me and keep me engaged. In just under a year, I've improved drastically in my BJJ and Boxing. It's a very dedicated but friendly atmosphere. You really do feel like your membership means something. This is a real fighter's gym, not whatever other gyms pass off as boxing (but is really Zumba with gloves). I'm still far from where I want to be, but I feel like I'm slowly but surely improving every time I walk out.

Positive experience: I really enjoyed going to class here. The instructors were knowledgeable, and each class was challenging. However, I'm going on 7-month military orders soon, and wanted to put my membership on hold during that time. The longest they could do it for was three months. Obviously I don't want to pay for classes of which I can't attend, so I decided to cancel, and just re-join when I get back. But then I was informed of a 10% cancelation fee! 10% of what? I had the month-to-month membership because I knew I was going on orders. Needless to say, I'm considering not going back because of this. It's a shame -- I've been a member since Apr 2015, and really enjoyed the classes and the people. So my advice is this: join only if you know you're going to stick with it for a while, or else be prepared to be hit with that cancelation fee, regardless of what membership you're on.
