Peter Welch's Gym

Experiencia fantástica: Clear, easy to follow instruction. Great practice with other people in the class. A really wonderful experience. I will be coming back often.

Experiencia fantástica: This gym is the real deal, you know it when you walk through its doors. As someone getting into boxing that has recently taken the fighter conditioning class, I can say that the staff were very helpful and welcoming and provided an exceptional experience and an intense workout.

Experiencia fantástica: As a novice boxer, the Fighter Conditioner class was beginner friendly! I felt instantly more comfortable when I got pointers from Peter Welch himself. It was a great workout hitting all the different muscle groups and I’m excited to go back and continue to improve my skills.

Experiencia fantástica: I went to PWG this week without ever stepping foot in a boxing gym. The staff was very welcoming and got rid of any intimidation around being a beginner. I will definitely return

Experiencia negativa: Due to a concussion I sustained while sparring at Peter Welch's Gym, I was no longer able to continue training and informed the staff accordingly. Several months later, I unexpectedly received an email stating that I would be sent to collections if I did not pay a $700 cancellation fee. This was followed by ongoing, aggressive communication.

Experiencia fantástica: This gym is amazing and you can sense the energy when walking in. It’s one of the only "true" boxing gyms that teach technique. I will definitely be coming back

Experiencia fantástica: My girlfriend and I had an amazing first experience taking the Fighter Conditioning class at Peter Welch's Gym! Extremely comprehensive workout that hits all muscle groups and cardio and the boxing component makes working out enjoyable. You can participate at any pace or skill level. Very supportive and encouraging staff that make for a great experience. We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend to anyone interested.

Experiencia fantástica: Peter Welch’s gym was amazing. My boyfriend and I showed up with no experience and had a blast. The workout was challenging and comprehensive. The instructor was encouraging and kind as were all of the other people in the class. We felt welcome and will definitely be going back. I haven’t worked out that hard in years.

Experiencia negativa: I’ve been boxing for a little over two months and this is one of the worst places I’ve went to. No attention given even when there were only 2-3 people in the class, and I came here multiple times thinking it would be different! no corrections on your form, no technique, just boxercise crap. Don’t come here to learn anything if that is your goal

Experiencia fantástica: Just went to the Monday evening class for the first time. Eric was a great instructor and showed us a few starter boxing moves beforehand. The conditioning class was a great workout and was my first time boxing! I will definitely come back for more!

Experiencia fantástica: I recently took the Intro to Fighter Conditioning class, and as a complete beginner to boxing, it was the perfect introduction. Alana kicked off the session by teaching us the fundamental boxing stances, punches, and simple combinations. Her clear instructions made it easy to understand the basics and ease into the rhythm of the workout. The second part of the class combined high-energy cardio with boxing drills using gloves and bags. It was definitely intense, but also incredibly fun and motivating. One of the things I appreciated most was that you could go at your own pace—there was no pressure to keep up with others, and taking breaks when needed was totally fine. If you’re new to boxing and curious about trying it out, I’d highly recommend this class. It’s a great way to learn the basics in a supportive environment while getting a solid workout.

Experiencia fantástica: Have been boxing for a few years now and recently moved to Boston. Very happy to have found this gym. Loved the experience; the coaches are attentive and knowledgeable and the environment is great. Perfect for all levels, whether you’re just starting or want to stay sharp on your skills.

Experiencia fantástica: Such a great workout, can't wait to take another class!

Experiencia fantástica: Great first class experience. Good class structure and not intimidating at all. Highly recommend for those looking to get into boxing.

Experiencia fantástica: I took the technical class and it was awesome. Perfect for all levels of boxer. I’m looking forward to my next class!

Experiencia fantástica: I did a fighter technique class for $17 because it was my first class and it was so much fun! I got a great workout, the coach was phenomenal with tips and tricks, and felt damn sore the next day!! Would recommend for beginners but honestly depends how you treat the class and could be good for anyone. Very friendly and welcoming staff, 100% coming back!

Experiencia fantástica: As a complete beginner, I had a lot of fun. The class was engaging, intense and the trainers were very supportive. I thoroughly enjoyed my first session!

Experiencia fantástica: First time was today, I had such a great experience the trainer really helped me work up a sweat and there was a lot of people so it pushed me pass my limits because I didn’t want to embarrass myself hahaha

Experiencia fantástica: Really nice gym with a helpful instructor. Felt very comfortable taking my first lesson with them, will definitely be coming back!

Experiencia fantástica: This gym was super supportive of newcomers and I felt like I fit in immediately. My trainer was super supportive and helpful, and the environment of the gym itself just makes you want to come back. After my class, the trainer walked up to me and made sure I was comfortable with the workout and asked if I was considering coming back. He showed genuine interest. This is a great environment for beginners!

Experiencia fantástica: Great gym for beginners looking to start boxing! The trainer leading our class was incredibly friendly and supportive, making sure everyone felt comfortable while learning the basics. Highly recommend for anyone new or pro in the sport

Experiencia fantástica: Had a great experience at Peter Welch Gym! I started with an intro session with Alana, and she was awesome—super friendly and made everything easy to understand. If it’s your first time, the intro is definitely worth it. I took a class with Sean afterward, and wow, it was intense but so good. He kept the energy high and really pushed us, but it never felt overwhelming. The whole vibe of the gym is super positive and motivating. I’m definitely coming back!

Experiencia fantástica: I took a technique class and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was good mix of technique and fitness work. We also had an opportunity to practice what we were learning at the end. Overall, a great experience!

Experiencia fantástica: Did my first ever fighters conditioning, was a great experience overall. I had a fun time and enjoyed the class

Experiencia fantástica: Did my first ever fighters conditioning, was a great experience overall. I personally was trying to find a boxing gym class with high intensity under a high spirited atmosphere, peter welch was the perfect fit for me.

Experiencia fantástica: Educational, challenging, and enjoyable. Went to my first fighter conditioning class last Saturday and didn't know what to expect. Walked into a fresh mix of cardio, shadow boxing, weights, and high-intensity circuits. Have not enjoyed exercise this much in a long time, highly recommend, will be back for more classes.

Experiencia fantástica: Peter is a great coach, visited the gym whilst travelling and was impressed with the set up. Will definitely visit again

Experiencia fantástica: Fighter Technique is a great class for anyone. Whether you’re a beginner or have some experience, you’ll learn something.

Experiencia fantástica: Went for my first class with Sam Dadd, from the start the workout was intense as he leads you through. We hit every part of the body during the conditioning class and by the end I was near my failing point! Absolutely will be going back and will be looking for classes lead by Sam!

Experiencia fantástica: I tried out the fighter conditioning class on a Sunday morning and it was a great workout. A good mix of jump rope, indoor jogging/sprinting, some strength training with dumbbells, shadow boxing, etc.

Experiencia fantástica: I recently took a boxing technique class, and I couldn't be more impressed with the experience. From start to finish, the class was both challenging and rewarding. The instructor was knowledgeable, clear, and passionate about teaching proper form. They took the time to explain the fundamentals, such as stance, footwork, and punch mechanics, in a way that was easy to understand for beginners and those with some prior experience. I appreciated how they walked around the room to give personalized feedback, ensuring everyone’s technique was on track. The class was well-organized, starting with a warm-up that focused on mobility and light cardio, followed by detailed drills to build muscle memory. We practiced jabs as well as defensive moves like slips and blocks. There was a good balance between shadowboxing, pad work, and partner drills, which helped reinforce the techniques we were learning. The gym had a great atmosphere—welcoming, motivating, and friendly. Everyone, from the instructor to the other participants, was supportive and encouraging. It really helped me feel comfortable, especially as someone newer to boxing.

Experiencia fantástica: Took a technique class, and it was great. They’re knowledgeable and inviting.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a great time at the Fighter technique class. The teachers were great, patient and knowledgable. You can tell you were being taught by professionals. I look forward to my next class!

Experiencia fantástica: Took an intro class and genuinely loved it. I’ve been trying to get back into the gym and wanted to try the 5:30am full body workout. It was such a blast. Felt comfortable and even went at my own pace with some of the exercises- No judgement. The place is pretty cool as well. Thinking about booking a 1o1 boxing session to test it out!

Experiencia fantástica: Took a technique class to start and it was great— both the instructors and others in the class were super helpful and I really enjoyed the environment. Definitely plan on coming again!

Experiencia fantástica: My son had his first class at Peter’s and loved it. Looking forward to getting him into the sport.

Experiencia fantástica: I went to my first fighter technique class last Sunday and it was great! The trainers are knowledgable and supportive. They made it very easy for beginners to follow along. I'm definitely planning to attend more classes!

Experiencia fantástica: Had a great workout my first time coming. Was a bit nervous, didn’t know how it was going to pan out but I’m glad I did it. For beginners I highly recommend the new joiners conditioning class and then segwaying into class, trainers are super friendly and sharp. It’s a good vibe overall! 10/10

Experiencia fantástica: Had a great first class the other day. I definitely recommend trying it out. The class is great for beginners and even fighters. These classes will definitely get you in shape

Experiencia fantástica: I attended the fighter conditioning class and really got a lot out of the experience. Specifically, I felt like i could jump right in and enjoy the workout as the class was so well run (instructions were easy to follow, class started on time, the other attendees were supportive). All and all, I'll definitely be returning.

Experiencia fantástica: Staff was awesome and the gym was really cool - they have some great equipment. Took the fighter conditioning course and it provided a serious sweat. Had a lot of fun and would definitely recommend giving it a go. Felt like being in a Rocky film.

Experiencia fantástica: I have visited the Fighter Conditioning Class as a newbie to boxing and it was so much fun! Great community, good guidance throughout the class, super friendly, helpful and welcoming staff and an exhausting and fun workout. Will definitely come again :)

Experiencia fantástica: As someone new to boxing, the coaching has been outstanding. The trainers are knowledgeable and supportive, and I've seen significant improvement while learning a ton. I highly recommend this gym to anyone, whether you're a beginner or experienced!

Experiencia fantástica: Just went to my first class and man was I impressed. I went to the conditioning class and it was the best workout I have had in a long time. I plan to definitely go back for more conditioning, as well as the technique classes.

Experiencia fantástica: Great session in PWG, very nice and welcoming staff to new people. Will definitely be back!

Experiencia fantástica: Great gym, where you can get some good work in

Experiencia fantástica: Signed up for the class because I wanted to experience what an old school boxing conditioning session is like. Did not disappoint at all! The workout was intense but everybody around me was extremely pumped! I bought the 10 class packages soon after because I was so looking forward to more!

Experiencia fantástica: Great workout and gym. The front desk guy was very kind and helpful. The conditioning class was intense but I was able to modify without feeling bad. I’ll definitely be going again!

Experiencia fantástica: My son started boxing in their kids class and loves it! I wasn’t sure what to expect but he came home excited about strength and conditioning work, and eager to return. I love that the focus is teaching the kids to move their bodies to be strong!

Experiencia fantástica: I just moved to South Boston from Quincy and was ecstatic to find a boxing gym very close to my new spot. I have been boxing at TMX in Quincy and have fallen in love in with it so, after attending my first class last night, I will definitely be returning as a regular. It has a nice layout, the people working out with me were friendly, and the workout offered the traditional challenge that boxing workouts usually do.

Experiencia fantástica: Joined a friend for a workout and a had great class. Felt great to hit the bag! Would definitely go again.

Experiencia fantástica: Was looking for a boxing gym and came across this one. Got a good workout out of it and the instructor who is also a fighter really explained techniques well. Will be coming back!

Experiencia fantástica: Loved loved my first class. I used to attend Rumble classes when I was in PA but since moving to Boston they are pretty far and not as popular here. So I looked for a boxing gym and found this on Yelp. They have reduced rate for your 1st class so I gave it a try. It actually felt and looked like a boxing gym not just a fitness room with a bunch bags. They have a proper boxing ring and offer many types of boxing class depending on what you want to focus on and FREE gloves included with any of your class . I chose the conditioning class and before the class starts you have a 20mn rundown with the coach who walks you thru all the boxing movements and vocab. The class was intense but felt good. The schedule is flexible for peeps who are either morning or evening person so it’s really great for working professionals or consultants :) Excited to go back !

Experiencia fantástica: Loved the old-school feel and epic workout. Great trainers and learned so much about boxing technique!

Experiencia fantástica: Went to a fighter condition class for the first time last week and it was a great workout!

Experiencia fantástica: I took an intro class and another conditioning class followed by that. It was my first time ever taking a class like this & the staff was very nice and beginner friendly. I enjoyed both classes & im looking forward to returning for another very soon.

Experiencia fantástica: Went to PWG for the first time & it was such a fulfilling, intense workout. Definitely will be back!

Experiencia fantástica: Tried out PWG for the first time on Wednesday for the intro class followed by the fighter conditioning class! Sean the instructor was great, and the workout was 10/10! I can’t wait for my next class!

Experiencia fantástica: Visited Peter Welch’s Gym for the first time on Monday. The intro to fighter conditioning class was very informative - the instructor was very welcoming and knowledgeable and did a great job of teaching the basics. The conditioning class afterwards was an intense workout, but you can adjust the exercises to match your level of fitness very easily. I had a great time, and will definitely be coming back! I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great workout.

Experiencia fantástica: My girlfriend and I went for our first class on Monday night and it was an incredible experience. It was challenging and fun. Eric was a great coach and made us feel comfortable right away. We both can’t wait to get to our next class.

Experiencia fantástica: great boxing went for my first class and it was so engaging very welcoming!

Experiencia fantástica: Went last week for a fighter conditioning class, had a great workout and felt amazing!

Experiencia fantástica: One of the best workouts I’ve had in years! As a newbie to boxing, I was a bit worried that I wouldn’t be able to keep up. The class is challenging but everything is completely doable for an entry level student. Although the class is organized into rounds, you’re completely working at your own pace. The gym was easy to find and they even have a parking lot (uncommon for most gyms in Boston). I will definitely be back!!

Experiencia fantástica: Had my first class here a while back. It was awesome!! Their intro class was great and showed you the basics of boxing. If you want a high intensity work out that is guaranteed to have you sweating, this is the place! Everyone was friendly and not intimidating at all.

Experiencia fantástica: Visited Peter Welch’s Gym for the first time on Monday for their intro and conditioning class and fell in love! What an unreal full-body workout The staff was welcoming and the trainer/coach was knowledgeable in helping bring me up to speed. I’ve been to other boxing gyms in the past, but this one takes the cake! Great schedule options, plenty of bags/space, parking, and a couple of gyms to play around in on the second level! Highly recommend checking this gym out! Will 100% be back!

Experiencia fantástica: My partner frequents this gym on weekends, so I had to try it as well. I dropped in on a Saturday morning and I was impressed with the structure of the class, the ample space, and the encouraging energy from Peter's class. I will be back for more!

Experiencia fantástica: This was my first fighters technique class ever. It was a fun experience and the instructor made sure everyone understood, and no one was left behind even though it was a large class. I will be returning again and hope to keep training with them to become a boxer in the future!

Experiencia fantástica: Great gym, with an assortment of classes to challenge yourself. I would highly recommend trying a class if you are thinking about it. Very affordable pricing.

Experiencia fantástica: Great instructors, great class, great space. The instructors gave me individual attention during the class and made me feel comfortable asking whatever questions I had. They seemed really knowledgeable with real competitive experience. Definitely going back for more

Experiencia fantástica: 1st class ever at a boxing gym, staff was very friendly and helpful; 1st conditioning class was amazing!

Experiencia fantástica: Peter Welch's gym is the best - It's simple! Some gym goers like to build out their own plans, but PW's gym makes it simple for you - Show up to a class, do what they say, and get the best workout possible -Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: My brother brought me to my first class last week. Great workout and very accepting of newcomers!

Experiencia fantástica: Great gym! Coaches are very helpful and knowledgable, will definitely go back!

Experiencia fantástica: Great place and excited to go back! I tried out the fighter conditioning class this week and was definitely challenged, but that was the goal. The instructor was super friendly and catered very well to the fact that I had no idea what I was doing - by the end of it I felt like I sorta did! Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: PWG has quickly become my favorite gym. I attended the Fighter Conditioning class and it was clean, efficient, and supportive. It hit every part of the body, I left drenched and feeling good. 10/10 would definitely recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Took my first boxing class ever here & the class was amazing. Coaches were extremely helpful in getting me oriented & the workout was just great for me and my entire family, which consists of people from every fitness level. Would highly recommend it.

Experiencia fantástica: Attended the "Intro to Fighter Conditioning" class and then the regular "Fighter Conditioning" class. Great introduction to boxing and a good workout, will be going back for future classes.

Experiencia fantástica: Tried my first class here and loved it! I haven’t boxed much, but felt very welcomed and comfortable. The class was a great work out but also informative on HOW to box/move your body. I always feel accomplished when I feel like I’ve fully worked out - that’s hard to achieve by myself at a gym, but by the time the class was done - I could tell I had pushed myself in the best way. There was also jump roping and an abdominal work out too! There is parking in the back too which is so helpful since I come from Medford!

Experiencia fantástica: Peter Welch’s Gym is great! My 14 year old son loved his first boxing class and can’t wait to take his next one. Dropping my son off I felt welcomed and knew he was going to receive the right training. I recommend this gym to anyone who wants to learn the art of boxing at any level.

Experiencia fantástica: My boys did the Kids Fitness class and they loved it. It was a nice mix of teaching and working them out! Worked hard with no complaints and they can’t wait to go back!

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing classes for adults AND kids. My son went to his first class this week and came home absolutely loving it. I was a long time regular of the class, and need to get back to it as it's always an amazing workout and you leave feeling stronger and more confident in yourself.
