Training at Izzy’s Boxing and Fitness has been an absolutely amazing experience. Right from the moment that you walk in, you’re felt welcome and are jolted by Coach Izzy’s passion and energy. Coach Izzy really puts his time and effort in giving his students the proper training and fostering a community like environment. One can clearly see his breadth of knowledge in technique and conditioning, allowing you to fully feel confident in what you’re doing and improving your skills. His motivation throughout the workouts is just the cherry on top for you to keep pushing yourself. I’ve already seen my skills improve a lot, whether it be footwork, defending, attacking, stamina etc in a short amount of time. I would highly recommend training here if you’re serious about wanting to learn boxing or even just improving your skills!

I’ve been training with Izzy for several months now, and I can honestly say he’s one of the best coaches and people I’ve ever met. His approach to teaching is equal parts motivating, patient, and inspiring. He takes the time to break down technique so you actually understand the “why” behind every movement, and he pushes you just enough to make real progress without ever feeling overwhelming.
Beyond being an amazing teacher, Izzy is genuinely invested in his students. He creates a positive, welcoming environment where you feel supported whether you’re a beginner or more advanced. Every session leaves me feeling stronger, more confident, and more energized.
If you’re looking for a place to train boxing with a coach who truly cares about your growth, Izzy’s studio is the place to be. Couldn’t recommend him more highly!

I’ve had the privilege of training with Coach Izzy and I can confidently say he is one of the best in the business. His deep knowledge of technique, strategy, and conditioning is matched only by his passion for the sport and dedication to his students. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced fighter, Coach Izzy tailors each session to challenge you, motivate you, and help you grow. He brings intensity and focus to every workout, while still creating an environment that’s encouraging and respectful. I’ve seen real improvement in my footwork, speed, and confidence since training with him. His attention to detail and ability to break down complex movements makes learning both effective and enjoyable. If you’re serious about boxing and want to train with someone who genuinely cares about your progress, Coach Izzy is the one. Highly recommended!

Izzy's Boxing and Fitness is more than just a gym-it's a community. From the moment I walked in, I felt the energy and passion in the air. Coach Izzy and the team are incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, and push you to reach your full potential, whether you're training for competition or just getting in shape. The workouts are intense and purposeful, with a perfect mix of technique, cardio, and strength.
I've personally seen huge improvements in my endurance, confidence, and discipline since joining. Sparring sessions are well-supervised and skill-focused, which helped me sharpen my skills safely. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned fighter, this place meets you where you are and pushes you higher. Highly recommend to anyone serious about fitness, boxing, or just becoming the best version of themselves.

Went to Izzy’s gym for my first workout and I don’t regret it. Coach Izzy and Coach Sam are amazing, I’ve worked with personal trainers before but these guys understand you’re more than just a client. They explained to me the proper stances to use during my workout and explained why. The location is great too, with so many places to check out pre or post workout. If you’re serious about being the best you and want to support local businesses, check out this place.

My daughter Ona has been training with Coach Izzy for the past 3 months, and the transformation has been amazing! The first thing I noticed was how her clothes started fitting differently—that’s when I knew it was working.
I kept seeing Izzy’s gym content pop up every morning, so I decided to reach out. We had a great conversation about his availability, and I realized how convenient it would be for Ona to go after school, especially since I work right in Montclair.
I spoke with Ona about it, and we set up a meeting with Izzy. She started the very next week. During that first meeting, he kept it real with her—he told her, “I move off your energy,” and I loved that. Kids can come with attitude, but he knows how to handle them with honesty and motivation.
Now she’s going strong three days a week and slimming down—and she sees it herself. As a parent, this has been one of the best decisions I’ve made. I explained to my daughter that staying active is important, especially when I noticed her gaining weight. Ignoring that would’ve felt like neglect on my part.
Izzy’s gym has been a blessing. Ona is happy, more confident, and getting healthier every week.

Training with Izzy has been an absolute game-changer for me! I travel all the way from New York to work with him because his expertise in boxing and fitness is unmatched. He tailors every session to my needs, and thanks to his guidance, my technique, overall fitness, and confidence have improved tremendously. Izzy is patient, motivating, and genuinely passionate about helping his clients succeed. Every session is challenging yet enjoyable, and I always leave feeling stronger and more accomplished.

Coach Izzy is an excellent boxing instructor. I have several years of martial arts experience but I’m brand new to boxing. The thing that stands out to me the most is his level of patience and attention to detail. He is encouraging and gives me more than enough time to work through my mistakes and bad habits from other disciplines. His boxing studio is immaculately clean and the environment is welcoming. You will WORK! Be prepared to be pushed but Coach Izzy will make sure it’s at a pace that you can handle. I’ve only been training here for a few weeks but I notice a real improvement in my boxing mechanics and fitness level. I’ve got a very long way to go but I’m so happy to have found Coach Izzy because he’s got a proven system to help me reach my goals. Do yourself a favor and check him out, you will not regret it!

I’ve been to gyms ran by no-names who’ve only ever competed in amateur contests. I’ve been to gyms ran by UFC record holders and pro-amateur BJJ, MMA, and boxers. Everyone has a way of teaching, but I’ve never been told that something is utterly useless or irrelevant in combat sports. I’ve never been told that my skills are non transferable from BJJ and Muay Thai to boxing. Sure he knows what he’s doing, but don’t discredit my teachers who are in the UFC actively and competing. Don’t meet me and tell me you’ll message me some rates and then never do so or reply to my follow ups. I wouldn’t recommend going here, for some reason they can’t allow sparring; something I’ve never heard in my life from numerous different gyms. It’s unprofessional to run a business and teach any combat sport in such a manner that discredits my skills and further illegitimate to stop replying to all messages.

I found this place because of the name stayed for the coach - Coach Izzy is by far the BEST motivator and he works with you until you get it right. He knows what he’s doing and he actually cares and focuses on your personal goals. He pushes you to do the best and also deals with my bs when im tired 😂 100/10 recommend- since i started training with coach Izzy, i can actually say I'm excited to work out for once - if you go anywhere else for personal fitness/boxing your a bozo

I’m thrilled to give you the scoop on our latest adventure—boxing with Izzy! My teenage son and I have been stepping into the ring with Izzy this month, and let me tell you, it’s been a knockout experience.
Izzy’s gym in Montclair has this great, calming vibe that somehow makes you forget you’re about to get punched in the face (in a good way). As a coach, Izzy strikes the perfect balance between being a drill sergeant and your biggest cheerleader. He’s also got a talent for juggling schedules—perfect for those of us who can’t even juggle our social media.
We kicked off our journey with a free session and, well, let’s just say we didn’t make it to the end of the driveway before we were hooked. Izzy’s payment options are as flexible as his workout routines, so you can box your way to fitness without boxing yourself into a corner.
Ready to trade in your gym membership for some serious fun? Give it a try—you might just end up with a new passion for dodging punches and throwing a few of your own! 🥊

Izzy's Boxing And Fitness: The workout is the perfect set to guide you into training for boxing, along with the fitness program, which are all the keys to a healthy life. The location is excellent, clean inside and out, and has a great environment. Words can not express my gratitude for the time, thoughts, talks, teaching, and training, all with patience, provided to my son for his life and others. Coach Lamont, with his determination, drive, and the keys of life, has shown my son where life will teach you: to keep pushing, build a better backbone, and have the courage to know you will get there no matter what! My son was broken and didn't want to do anything a few months ago after facing an attack in school, being pushed aside, being bullied, and losing a social life for months of not attending school. This situation forced my son's hope for school and life and trust in others to fade. My 13-year-old started two months ago (what little time can do for one another ); after day one, I thought he would never return. Now he LOVES to go , talk about his coach ,the new members he has met; all his energy, every smile, and every joke is back. He is ready to work out and excited to return for his next training. Coach deserves a reward for pouring into others at Izzy's Boxing and Fitness. Keep inspiring,

Coach Lamont has exceeded my expectations in training my daughter at his gym. The training includes multiple aspects of boxing and fitness. The boxing technique drills teach her skills and the full body workouts builds her strength and confidence. I joined a session because I wanted to experience the challenge. Coach Lamont motivates to push past your comfort zone and you have fun in the process. I highly recommend Izzy’s Boxing and Fitness. You will not be disappointed.

I have been searching for a few years for a boxing instructor. There were a few things I needed, first of course, to be able to afford the instructor. Next, somebody who knows what they're doing and can show me how to do it. But most importantly I needed someone that motivates me. Somebody that when I don't feel like doing it or when I don't think I can do it they believe in me and push me enough so that I find out that I actually can. That's what I get at Izzy's Boxing and Fitness. Customized workouts based on what I need to work on and my personal goals. Coach Lamont is extremely passionate about what he does and it is reflected in your sessions. He gets so excited when you achieve, when you succeed, and it makes you excited. I don't think I would be able to continue my fitness journey without Izzy's Boxing and Fitness.

Coach Lamont knows the biomechanics of boxing movement and he does not let anything slide. You will repeat it until it’s done correctly. No excuses. He will find different ways to explain a movement, he will use different tools to help you conceptualize it and you will practice it until it clicks both mentally and physically. If that’s what you’re all about, sign up.

If you want to learn boxing please runnnnn to Izzy’s Boxing and Fitness— Lamont is amazing! He’s super professional, his space is very clean, and he is an amazing coach! We’ve had about 8 sessions and when I walked in I didn’t know a thing about boxing and I have awful coordination— but I’ve gotten so much better and can feel the progression. Lamont walks you through step by step and his 1:1 coaching is phenomenal— he’s super attentive to technique and power. What I love the most is Lamont is super patient and brings amazing energy, sometimes even at 6am he brings full on energy (lol). I bought the 20 sessions package and I cannot wait to continue with him. You will not be disappointed!

So grateful that Coach Lamont is able to train my teenage daughters. He is patient, but assertive and gives direction that is concise and effective. I’m witnessing my daughters progressing and adapting to a regimen that they were initially uncomfortable with. They are now moving through a workout…taking commands on the fly and responding. They are being prepared for life and using their workouts as a way to brake away from the monotony of our new electronic society. Looking forward to getting started myself…

Lamont has been working with my teenage girls for about 6months now. He helped build confidence they didn’t know they were lacking. They also didn’t always present with the best attitude. After school on Fridays after a burnt out week, Lamont always held his cool & coached them back on track with much professionalism & enthusiasm. His energy & patience is unmatched! Coach Lamont for the win!

It's worth it in the end and I can say I've become a better person ever since I joined. So I recommend ya to join too ona set.
