If you or your child have an interest in boxing...look no further than 2nd Chance Gym. The environment is amazing. Jody Sheeley and friends have created a positive and inclusive space. Their commitment to the sport is 2nd to none. Watching my son thrive in the ring with his technique and confidence is proof of Jody's commitments to training. My expectations have been far surpassed.

My 12 year old son has been working with Jody the past month- his first time boxing. I cannot say enough good things about Jody’s coaching and gym. Friendly, accommodating, clean, positive supportive environment. Jody connected with my son and not only us teaching him boxing but giving him an outlet to feel stronger physically and mentally. Highly recommend!!

Started coming to 2nd Chance Gym about a month ago and I only have good things to say about it. Jody’s passion is what I noticed from the moment I stepped into the gym and from then on its only become more apparent. I look forward to the future here at second chance gym and I strongly recommend it for anybody who’s willing to work hard and strive to get better.

If you’re looking for a gym to train at whether you’re experienced or brand new this is the place to go! I came in with no knowledge of boxing and have already learned so much in just a month. Coach Jody is an awesome guy with much knowledge of the sport. 2nd Chance Gym is all around a great place to be, definitely recommend it!

2nd Chance Gym is a great addition to our area offering a variety of boxing, conditioning, cross fit, nutritional guidance, etc. Coach/Trainer Jody Sheeley put his heart and soul into transforming his over sized garage into a training facility for all ages and levels. The grounds are beautiful and the gym is kept orderly and sanitized. I would highly recommend 2nd Chance Gym to anyone looking to become a part of a positive, welcoming facility from the moment you enter!

Not just a place to train, but a place that makes you WANT to train. It’s more than just a garage on a farm, it’s a breeding ground of confidence for people from all walks of life. Wether you just want to get in shape, learn to defend yourself, or start or rekindle a fight career, this is the place to do it, and coach Jody will give you all the tools you need!

Jody has opened up a great gym! He really puts the time into making sure each person who walks through his door has a great experience. He is very knowledgeable about the sport and it shows when he is training you. I would highly recommend this gym to anyone who is interested in boxing as a beginner or anyone who maybe looking for a facility to continue their training.

Jody has opened up a really special place. He takes time to work with every single person individually and is welcoming to every person who walks in the door. It’s my new favorite place to be and a great place to get a great workout and learn more about the art of boxing.

Jody Sheeley trained me for years in the original 2nd chance gym. He truly checks all the boxes, role model, trainer, and duct tape technician. He is passionate about the sport and gives everything he has to his fighters. The facility is top notch, a far cry from the salamander heated, duct tape rope, pad locked old school gym in a shoddy 2 car garage that 2nd chance once called home. Whether your looking to compete or just get in a workout like no other, 2nd Chance Gym is the place to go.

2nd Chance Gym is an old school place in a beautiful country setting. Jody Sheeley has deep roots in the boxing community and if you are looking to learn the sweet science there is nobody better. If you are looking for a different workout this is the place to go. If you like to be around caring, honest people Jody is at the top of that list. I have seen firsthand what the impact of being around Jody can have on a person. Take advantage of this 2nd Chance!! We all deserve one!
