Fantastic experience: Different Breed = Good vibes, Great coaches, very motivating team . Also, it’s a clean environment.. El Jefe makes sure the place is looking up to par for everyone…

Fantastic experience: By far the best gym I have ever belonged to. The gym is clean and has all the equipment you need to do your workouts. No matter what your fitness goal is there is always someone there to assist you if need be. They also have the best set of personal trainers in the gym, I have by far one of the funniest but hard working trainers Tiffany Delarosa, every time I workout with her I know I’m gunna break a sweat and she will leave me going home sore and seeing results. I also love the classes they offer at the gym too so you get to know the other trainers and their style of working out. I look forward to working out now that I go here and reaching my end goals.

Fantastic experience: Started taking boxing classes here a few years ago and fell in love with the vibe of this place. Good people, good classes.

Fantastic experience: The gym has great energy, all of the coaches are great, I feel highly motivated training there..highly recommended!!

Fantastic experience: We joined the gym past summer and have loved it ever since. Great facility, great coaches and staff!!! I have 4 children and they all look forward to the gym each time.

Fantastic experience: Must go gym for people of all levels. Judgement free zone with people who are willing to push and encourage. 100% recommend!

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere!! Different breed is definitely a five star gym. They’ve got some amazing trainers over there. I’ve trained a couple sessions with Jess & she’s awesome. Probably one of the best workouts I’ve been put through as I’m a former athlete. If you're looking for a high-level gym this is the place to join.

Fantastic experience: I recently moved to NJ and I had been looking for a gym close to home. I am so happy I found DB. The gym is clean. They have all the equipment you can imagine. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. If you are looking for a real boxing gym this is the one. I have been taking Tiffany Delarosa classes. She is amazing, she pushes me to do better every class, her classes are challenging and upbeat. She is extremely nice and knows what she’s doing. I wish she had more classes added to the schedule because I would come take her classes 7 days a week if possible :) Overall I’m really happy I found DB.

Fantastic experience: One of the best choices I’ve made for myself and my health journey…from the moment you step in you are treated like family! Very knowledgeable staff and there is always someone around for guidance if needed, the classes are great and trainers do an amazing job keeping you on track during, even the other gym members will cheer you on while you’re toughing it out thru a difficult exercise. If you’re looking for a judgement free zone and a supportive welcoming gym experience then THIS IS THE PLACE FOR YOU!

Fantastic experience: I absolutely LOVE this gym!!! The equipment is the best, the gym is spotless, the staff is knowledgeable, professional and just fantastic, and the members are some of the nicest people I have ever met!!!!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been at DB for one year now. The facility is always clean and every trainer is friendly and encouraging. I love the group training classes. The staff greet you by first name and it feels like you’re at home.

Fantastic experience: My kids love this place I definitely recommend it ..the gym is clean and the staffing is great.

Fantastic experience: I joined this gym a few weeks ago and from the very first class, they delivered. I slacked on working out this summer but I’m already getting whipped back into shape. Joe Butta is an amazing boxing coach and I’ve already learned so much and am improving my technique. My favorite instructors for HIIT & lifting are Tiffany and Lex! Their classes will kick your !!!

Fantastic experience: I started coming to this gym in July. At first I solely went to classes. So fun! There’s a class for every fitness level. I am definitely a beginner. Eventually I decided to add personal training. Tiffany Delarosa is amazing! She can see my potential and pushes me to achieve my goals. I’ve noticed a difference in both my physical and mental health. Although the workouts can be challenging, the staff and other gym-goers are super supportive! Coming to the gym is definitely a highlight of my day.

Fantastic experience: In this place called Different Breed Sports Academy it is amazing to work out get your exercise on and lose weight it is amazing I love it and I wish I will go back there again someday in the future

Fantastic experience: Only good things to say about this place. If you are looking for a real deal boxing gym to learn the sport as well as a place to just work out, this is definitely a great investment. The main owner Don is a down to earth and old school type of guy. You can tell he’s been doing this for a considerable number of decades and is always happy to do what he does. His team of coaches that actually teach the classes are pretty awesome as well. This was a huge, incomparable improvement as opposed to the initial boxing gym I found. Both in terms of price, quantity, quality and overall welcomeness.

Fantastic experience: Been coming to DBSA for a little over a month now, and I know that I’ll stick to coming to this gym. All of the coaches are professional, dedicated, and incredibly welcoming, and they maintain this family-like atmosphere to the gym that makes it feel like home. There’s a variety of equipments and machines to use, and though it gets packed in the evenings, there’s space for everybody to get their workout in. I also appreciate how cognizant everyone is to keep the facilities clean! My favorite classes so far has been the Sunday and Thursday classes by coach Tiffany De la Rosa—she will make sure you are sore the next day! She’s super accommodating if some movements may be too difficult, but always pushes you enough so that you challenge yourself. The boxing classes are equally great, and I love the focus on the techniques and skills the coaches put you through. Will definitely be spreading the word on how amazing and fun this gym is to my family, friends, and coworkers!

Fantastic experience: Different Breed is amazing!! I love the people and the atmosphere.If you want to get a good workout and see a difference in your body, I would highly suggest this gym, especially Coach Caz!! He’s an amazing trainer who is extremely detailed and passionate about seeing his clients reach their fitness goals.

Fantastic experience: The environment is truly amazing. I was signing up and instead of rushing and just trying to get me to sign up. They allowed my to do different classes to see what my skill level was. I stayed here for about 2 hours and it didn’t feel like it. I could honestly say that i have found not only a gym but a family.

Fantastic experience: Amazing boxing gym , exceptional costumer service, I am in love with boxing because of this gym , professional and dedicated crew and coaches, everyone feels welcome. I love everything about it. Highly highly highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: I really like this place. The thing is that going back to moving, training or exercising felt like something impossible to do after some health issues I've encountered in the past few months. But when I started here, it was a little easier to find the motivation that I needed. Coaches are not only great and knowledgeable and know what they are doing, but also very nice, friendly, encouraging which is what a newbie like me needs and appreciates. In the first couple of weeks I already had a lot of corrections on posture, movement, etc., so I don't feel that I'm there just to follow, period. I feel that I'm improving in many ways. I've taken classes with Tiffany De La Rosa, Daniel Wilson, Shark, Ricardo, additionally took PT with Tiff and absolutely everyone has been helpful. For real, can't speak highly enough about this place. Just come and see it for yourself.

Fantastic experience: I joined this gym a month ago and still feel excited going there to workout with the trainers in a group setting. I haven’t spent time with every trainer however the ones I have had the pleasure of working with were great. I really enjoy working out with Tiffany De La Rosa because ever since day one when I first stepped into the gym she was the first trainer I saw and she had a very friendly and welcoming spirit about her . When working out with Tiffany she doesn’t over correct you in such a way that make you feel uncomfortable but she does it in an encouraging way which is nice and when you’re doing the workout correctly she will point that out to you as well. So, I will keep coming to the gym as long as she is there. I also had the pleasure of working with Chaz, who was my first personal trainer that was assigned to me and he was very encouraging and easy to work with. I would recommend this gym to anyone because of the overall welcoming environment for all.

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love this gym. It is literally 6 minutes away from my house and I have had the best experience by far here. This gym has all the equipment you could need and more, there are machines that I never used at other gyms. The absolute best part of the gym for me are the trainers they are all so kind and they motivate you to keep pushing yourself to be the best you possible. I have trained with both Tiffany’s at the gym and for the last 3 I weeks have been training with coach J. He is absolutely amazing he is training me and teaching me the boxing basics. He has been an incredible trainer, every session I have with him pushes me to my limit but I feel amazing once I am done. This gym is my absolute favorite by far and I do not plan on going anywhere else this gym is home. I encourage anyone looking for a new gym in the area to come check it out you will not be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: Always have a blast at different breed where everything is absolutely different. Was very happy with the new Curve's with Caz class and the mindbody connection focus. Getting this summer body right you can always count on Caz to be there and help you get right! Only up from here, this gym is thriving!

Fantastic experience: I started working out at Different Breed Sports Academy in February and started personal training sessions in March ( I highly recommend) Tiffany Delarosa she’s intense, motivating, and pushes me in and out the gym with ( homework ‍♀️)! Within four weeks I lost 10lbs working with Tiffany. If your looking to get right for the summer, or just to start a fitness journey at Different Breed Sports Academy Tiffany is the one for you!!! She will DEFINITELY get you RIGHT and FIT!!!!! If your into YOGA I HIGHLY recommend Different Breed Sports Academy’s Yoga classes AMAZING!!!

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere!! Different breed is definitely a five star gym. They’ve got some amazing trainers over there. I’ve trained a couple sessions with Jess & she’s awesome. Probably one of the best workouts I’ve been put through as I’m a former athlete. If you're looking for a high-level gym this is the place to join.

Fantastic experience: I've had my fair share of gym memberships however, none have surpassed Different Breed Sports Academy. I only joined the gym about a month ago and I must say the welcoming energy, environment, and positivity that radiates as soon as you walk into the gym is unmatched. All coaches/trainers are super motivating, encouraging, and really push you to challenge yourself regardless of your fitness level. I've also had the privilege of training with coach Tiffany and she has challenged me in ways I never thought I was capable of or would have even tried on my own plus she makes the workouts fun and exciting! I have also been attending the boxing classes which are taught by very knowledgeable and experienced coaches who focus on all areas of conditioning. I look forward to every training session/workout class with such excitement because I am seeing progress and results fairly quickly! would highly HIGHLY recommend this gym to anyone who is looking to get in the best shape with the best coaches! Thank you Different Breed Sports Academy for being such an AMAZING facility!!!

Fantastic experience: This gym is by far one of my favorite gyms I’ve ever joined. I was extremely intimidated by the boxing class, but immediately when I jumped into the class, I was hooked !! I suffer from winter depression, and these classes have motivated me to remain healthy, stay fit, and work towards a goal of improving and getting better at boxing . Shout out to coach P for Being top notch coach and to all the coaches at this gym that are always super professional to work with ! Thank you !!!

Fantastic experience: Tried a big chain gym before this and what a amazingly better experience this was. You can get one on one scheduled sessions but even if your just some schlub off the street they have trainers on standby always ready to help you out, start you on a workout, and be helpful with giving improving pointers as well. They have a variety of classes for all levels. Very non judgemental and communal vibe in the whole gym. Would give it six out of five stars if I could!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism , Quality I’ve worked in countless gyms and fitness facilities and have been a member at probably every box gym there is and this is the most motivating gym I’ve ever been to! And If you’re into boxing this is definitely the place to be. All of the trainers are very friendly and knowledgeable and you will never get bored. Truly different!!

Fantastic experience: My kids and I are regulars at Different Breed because we just love the environment, energy and the family feel you get when your there. They have amazing trainers but I want to take a sec and give some praise to one in particular. Tiffany I don’t know where to start you are just amazing. We had a family group and the quality of work and patience she had with us all is different. My kids loved the work out because she made it fun and exciting. Now we will see her for group work outs and they are looking forward to them. Just want to say thank you to Tiffany and Different Breeds Sports Academy.

Fantastic experience: I just started going for a few weeks and I'm ready to give my thoughts. What you have to understand about this gym is that it's called Different Breed because the experience is completely different than what you get at 24 Hour Fitness, LA Fitness, Planet Fitness & pretty much every gym I've worked out at. At all these other corporate type gyms the idea is more, "Look we've invested in all this equipment now come make us our money back". The only employees you'll see are at stopping points where you need to pay money like for a day pass or things of that nature. Being a newcomer & not knowing how to use equipment or just standard gym procedure at these other gyms is usually frowned upon by other people training in the gyms. Not here. I seen the DB trainers putting first-time gym members through their first circuits, and telling veteran ones to push harder because they're not really working to the potential they can. Some people will say "Oh but that's just because this is a boxing gym and not a regular gym like 24 Hour fitness". And I say to that, no. Different breed is not a boxing gym, its a gym much like any other gym. They just dont take any shortcuts, and are really invested in everyone's individual fitness goals. Gym is tough I give it a 5, this is the standard we should hold every gym at. Yes, they have state of the art equipment at DB but its more than just the equipment's presence that makes a good gym and environment to really get back to peak shape.

Fantastic experience: Different breed couldn’t be a more perfect name for this gym, they truly do everything different. The owner is a great guy with an amazing team by his side and they take the time to work with you on every level. I let them know my concerns and they were more than happy to help me out. Definitely give this gym a try if you’re looking for something.. well, different!

Fantastic experience: Love this space!!! They have everything you need for great varied very complete workouts. This is a smaller gym and a more focused one, I love that is not just a hangout spot like many other gyms. Also, super clean and extremely friendly staff. I received a complimentary training session the other day without even asking for it and it was incredible!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Quality Different Breed Sports Academy is a great environment gym. Clean facility with great people. I find that i’m always being pushed to do my best with encouragement from great trainers. Great energy in the gym with trainer Tiffany. Would definitely recommend training here.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Only been at the gym for a couple months, but I’m happy I joined. All of the trainers know what they’re talking about and they are very helpful. Coach Tiffany specifically is an amazing trainer, she’s always pushing people to be their best and work their hardest.

Fantastic experience: I've been working with trainer Mike Abatayo for just about 1 year, and most of it has been virtual training. The virtual training has been truly excellent. The workouts that Mike designs for me are a perfect balance of challenging but manageable. After a year I have so much more energy and strength to do the everyday things, like chase around my little ones and stand at my working desk for longer stretches. Mike is also always on time and super fun to talk to!

Fantastic experience: Joined Different Breed about a month ago, and would absolutely recommend. I've played multiple sports at different levels my entire life, and the workouts here are easily on par with and most times exceed anything I've done prior. Plenty of workout equipment if you want to lift or do cardio on your own. To me you really get the bang for your buck with the classes themselves as well. The boxing instructors are knowledgeable and seasoned, and each class is a little different from the one prior. All skill levels are represented, and you'll definitely learn. Finally, I've seen nothing but respect given to everybody regardless of background, gender, experience, etc.. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality This gym promotes health, safety and community. The trainers are attentive and caring. They keep the place extremely clean. I highly recommend joining! What is also great is that they have an amazing youth program as well! Support this jewel in the community. Chuck Burks

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym! All of the trainers are very nice and take the time to understand your fitness needs and goals. Tiffany is the best! She knows how to push her clients and expects nothing less than the best. She's the reason I look at myself in the mirror astonished by the progress I've made in the past several months. If you want a coach that will push you past your limits and leave you with more self-confidence than ever before, she's you need!

Fantastic experience: This place is great! It is very clean and the staff is so nice. I train here with Mike Abatayo and it’s nothing short but amazing! The training sessions are very personable and geared towards you and your goals. The gym is smaller than where I’ve gone in the past but the equipment options are amazing and Mike can definitely be creative if something we need is not in use. I would definitely 10/10 recommend this gym and training with Mike, you will not get anything better anywhere else.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Great athlete/trainer environment. All the coaches want to see you succeed and push you to be the best you possibly can be. Have been taking boxing classes for about 2 months and each session has been better than the last and I’ve been able to improve my conditioning better here than any other gym I’ve been to.

Fantastic experience: Simply the best! I have gone to so many gyms and by far this is cleanest gym in the area. I love the atmosphere and actually look forward to going in for my workouts! Thanks for keeping everyone motivated to stay strong and healthy during these times.

Fantastic experience: This is by far the best gym I’ve ever been to. From the way the staff is with the customers, the professionalism, and most importantly the cleanliness. Everyone at this gym treats you like family from day 1 and you don’t get that in most gyms today. They have wonderful trainers that can help you meet any fitness goals you want. I’d recommend this gym to anyone who is looking for a clean and very fun environment.

Fantastic experience: I love this gym. I’ve seen the best results here. The trainers are intense and know what they’re doing and the equipment is state of the art. I always feel super motivated when I’m here because the community is incredibly supportive. It’s also super clean and I feel safe whenever I go. Highly recommend to anyone who’s serious about getting in shape and becoming their strongest self.

Fantastic experience: This is an excellent gym. The coaching/training staff is great. They’ll work with you and provide individual attention even if you’re not doing personal training. They also have equipment I haven’t seen anywhere else. With all these resources it’s hard to get into the lull of a routine where you plateau and have a hard time making gains. Also shoutout to Joe! Awesome trainer and does a great job working with kids. My son loves his boxing sessions.

Fantastic experience: Took my 5yo boxing enthusiast son here yesterday for the first time. We don’t live close so we really planned to try a few gyms to see if we could find one a bit closer to home but THIS GYM IS IT!!! The communication we had in advance with trainer Joe (who happens to have an early childhood background) was good and my son’s experience training with him was GREAT! Mr. Joe’s name is now a BIG help in our home...clean your room if you want to box with Mr. Joe...remember, Mr. Joe said eat ALL of your veggies. They have Covid-19 measures in place with lots of sanitizing stations and both employees and gym members wear masks the entire time which provides an opportunity to safely connect with peers since he’s now learning virtually. Looking forward to continued work with owner Don and his team for both of my sons.

Fantastic experience: This is my fourth boxing gym that I’ve been a member of, and it is the most detailed and thorough when it comes to my personal fitness needs, cleanliness and professionalism. They’re truly invested in their members and surrounding community. Also, you never know who might walk in their doors when it comes to pro athletes looking to elevate their game. Love it.

Fantastic experience: I’ve personally been working out with Jalen and he’s the only trainer I’ve seen amazing results from. I recommend this gym to all my friends and family. Super clean and friendly environment. You walk in and look forward to being around familiar faces . Don and Joe are great people and I always feel welcome when I come to my session. They definitely have a client for life
