I've trained with the owner Johnny for over 10 years now. Whether you're looking for fitness or how to protect yourself you will get both at Spar. My primary focus is technique and preparation, which is great here. The key factor is that actual fighters train here. Don't be intimidated as they tend to train at different hours than general public.
Highly recommend if you want to get fit or more importantly learn to fight.

I first started Spar Houston in 2020. Cleanest, well organized, with the most patient and passionate coaches, boxing gym I have been to. I love the small group classes, fitted for all levels. Perfect place to learn correct fundamentals and techniques to prevent injuries! Shout out to the staff, especially Coach Bobby & Coach Keenan!!

Title: Outstanding Experience at Spar Houston
I recently joined Spar Houston, and the experience has been nothing short of exceptional. The one-on-one focus during training is precisely what I was looking for—it's top-quality and geared towards pushing you beyond limits.
Spar Houston stands out for its cleanliness, friendliness, and hospitality. The competitive atmosphere aligns perfectly with my ambitions in the sport, making it the ideal choice for anyone aiming to compete.
After exploring various gyms in the city, I'm confident that Spar Houston is the best choice. Highly recommended for those serious about boxing and seeking personalized, growth-oriented training.
Best regards,

I highly recommend Spar Boxing. The coaches energy and the atmosphere all around is truly unmatched. Stepping out of my comfort zone and trying Spar has been one of the best decisions I've made- I've gained new friends, new experiences, new knowledge and a confidence in myself that I haven't felt while training with anyone else before. Special thank you to all of the coaches- who aren't only training coaches, but life coaches as well. Give it a try, it's worth ALL of the hype.

My friend and I had our very first boxing experience at Spar. Coach Bobby was excellent!!! He gave us a great introductory lesson learning the basics (stance, footwork, punching, parrying) and then my friend and I had a mild 3 round spar. We had a wonderful time and will definitely do it again.

The coaches here are superb. I’ve been to multiple gyms in the area, and none of their coaches bring the same energy. This place is unique! I drive 30 minutes to train here, because I believe it’s worth it. The classes combine strength and conditioning with boxing technique, improving your fitness and skill set simultaneously. You never do the same thing everyday, and the coaches are great at motivating their clients to work harder. I highly recommend Spar for any one seeking self improvement.

REVIEW UPDATE: After 7 months of the SPAR Membership... the coaching staff is still extremely motivating, great gym, facilities are always clean, the atmosphere is still exciting... honestly can't say too many great things about SPAR Houston. My results are where I want them to be. I never have any issues booking the class(es), times and days of preference. Whether it's 5:30am or 6:30pm or anything in-between. Coaches have a diverse background and skillsets... truly knowledgeable about their craft and what it takes to achieve whatever your personal goal is! And finally, SPAR and its members give back to the community throughout the year. Rarely can you find a boutique gym that IS NOT bougie and uninviting. SPAR is 1 of 1. Give it a try.... See for yourself!

I’m new to boxing but old to intense workouts. I tried out Spar after years of avoiding any kind of gym due to bad burn out from a stent in bodybuilding. To get me back into high intensity training has been a battle but Spar clicked with me.
I like that it’s a sport (not mundane weights) where I can learn new skills and see improvement every week. The coaches are authentic and will push you. We have real moments and connection while other times we’re given the space to process and find our inner energy.
Much like anything— no one will do the work for you. If you put in the effort, you’ll get the results. You just have to find the right environment to grow, and this environment is working well for me right now.

Was not able to sign up on the Spar app because it closes out on me and not everyone has social media. Don't waste your time.

I tried signing up for A course and the system continued to give me an error. I tried to call, no one answered. I sent them and Instagram message given that they post stories constantly and it took them hours to respond with a very generic message that did not answer my question, they just directed me to download their app. Clearly they put a lot of money into their promo videos, online presence, and tech - sadly they invested zero in customer service.
I wish I could have signed up for a class, given all the positive reviews but I was unable to. I hope other people are actually able to sign up and try it out.

I recommend Spar to all my family and friends. From the physical and mental changes I've seen in my life, I can attest that Spar not only cares about your physical well-being but also your mental well-being. They understand that those two go hand in hand to create transformation in a person. I've seen it first hand in my own life and those around me see it too.

I highly recommend Spar Boxing. I started almost a year ago. I was nervous but Coach Keenan welcomed me with open arms. Pierre Russell the owner has developed such an amazing environment. You aren't just walking around .Every aspect of the experience is tailored from the 30 min and 60 min sessions. I was having major knee pain but Pierre showed me what I was doing wrong during my physical therapy sessions and we were able to correct it. It's way better than it was originally. Pierre is very passionate about his work and it shows. He wants all of his clients to succeed. Coach Keenan is also amazing. He pushes you to the limit, we all need that sometimes, also he rocks the best sneakers😬 Coach Bobby gives you a great 60 min workout and it's also fun. He has an awesome personality. I recommend Spar Boxing. Sign up today. What are you waiting for??

Spar Houston is everything it should be! I never imagine paying for a gym membership but let me tell you it’s worth every dollar down to the cents. My coach is Pierre he got me a new body for my birthday seriously all the coaches are great Keenan I hate working with him because he makes me work hard “lol” but he will get you results. Bobby is full of energy my dance partner. This gym is my safe place it’s one of those things you “have to” experience for yourself!

I was referred by a friend of mine. I thought I was just going to another boxing workout class, after being invited by her. Little did I know Spar would change my life. I joined at just the right time. I love the environment! Everyone is so friendly and encouraging. The coaches that I have worked with Pierre, Kennan, and Bobby are so professional. They take the time to coach and train you. They are so encouraging, skillful, and critique your form in an encouraging way. I am so happy to be apart of Spar. I am excited to see my body transform, gain endurance, and grow. Whether you are looking to workout, meet new people, or have a therapeutic outlet, Spar is it! Definitely a my safe place to do just that! Sooooo Thank you!!!

I love Spar! All of the coaches create an open, safe space to train and they really cater to the individual. I've been training privately with Keenan- and he makes sure to show up for you when you don't want to show up for yourself. The owner, Pierre, really put a lot of work into making this space a home and it has paid off. They offer a wide variety of classes with Pierre, Keenan, and Bobby are ready to get you to work! I can't wait for my next visit.

There is a strong sense of community at Spar and the atmosphere is simply unparalleled.

Exactly what I’ve been looking for. Small groups and the instructors are so knowledgeable and motivating. All the coaches/staff are welcoming and inviting. Love that I can sign up for classes on class pass and mind body app. Shout out to coach Charles Baylor- highly recommend trying one of his classes he’s hands down a phenomenal coach and makes training fun! Always learn something new from him and pushes me to explore my limits. I’m so glad I walked into this gym.

DO IT!!!!
If you’ve been considering it, mulling it over, maybe not quite sure what to expect... I’m telling you it’s much better than you could ever imagine! Joining Spar Houston is by far the best fitness related decision I’ve ever made. My family has a history of high blood pressure, and even at my age and fitness habits I could already see the signs that I was heading in the same direction. After just one month of training, my blood pressure dropped from 139/92 last month to 111/78 this month!!
Pierre, the owner of Spar, is incredibly knowledgeable and so passionate about his business! He works directly with you during your workout to ensure that you are pushing yourself and also doing each movement correctly. He also helps you progress and get better with each session, while maintaining the level of difficulty you need individually to get a phenomenal workout every time. I’m used to 3-4 days of weight lifting at the gym, but with the addition of their strength classes that are also available, I’ve been able to cancel my old gym membership!
Whether you’re a professional boxer, or someone who’s never even been inside a gym, I PROMISE you won’t regret making a visit!
