You are Welcome 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: I am so impressed with this boxing club. My grandson age 12 joined boxing about 4 months ago. He has lost weight and gained an abundance of confidence. The difference in his whole attitude has shifted. He wants to go further and learn more. Thank you for opening up this new world of self pride and confidence for him

Fantastic experience: Going to be honest, I started out as a fairly heavy woman so it's very hard to find a comfortable gym with full support and kind coaches with determination to help me see my goals, but I hit the jackpot with dynamite boxing. I've had nothing but good experience with all of their coaches, the fighters there are equally as kind. I look forward to continuing my journey as a fighter with this club. The coaches are dedicated, educated, kind, and supportive. I've seen high success rates in their fighters so I have high hope of my future as a fighter. They have already helped me reach my weight goal, I'm supper pumped to achieve my fighters goal with dynamite boxing! If your looking for something similar as myself I would 10000% recommend this club, and if you got kids to I've seen how awesome their kids classes are, nothing but smiles and hard work! 1000/10

Fantastic experience: As a hockey player I’ve been going to Dynamite since my Peewee year. This is by far the most family oriented and the most hard working gym in Calgary. Shane Thompson comes with a very professional background in the sport of Boxing and Hockey. Shane and his coaching staff make everyone feel like family. Shane takes your athleticism, heart, enthusiasm, drive and every aspect of yourself to the next level. If it wasn’t for Shane and his staff, I would not have pursued my dream of being a Junior A hockey player at the age of 16. Shane delivers what he promises. He will help you reach any goal in and out of the gym. There is plenty more I can say but all around this gym is the place to go for any athlete looking to improve themselves and elevate their game. Shane is family to me and drives me everyday to become a better person. The motto really suits itself when it comes to Dynamite. “They Train, We Train Harder”

Fantastic experience: Best boxing gym in the city in my opinion. Jamna, shane, and the rest of the team at dynamite do an amazing job of making every member feel welcome and like family. You can tell shane and his team really love and respect the sport of boxing, The training you recieve is top notch and they have a really nice and spacious gym. I would recommend the gym to anyone and give it a 10/10 rating. So glad I chose to sign up with dynamite boxing club.

Fantastic experience: The coaches here treat you like family and ensure you're well-prepared for any endeavor. The conditioning classes will undoubtedly whip you into shape, and with numerous sparring partners, you can experiment with various boxing styles. The gym's standout feature is the camaraderie among its members and staff - you are able to feel like family really fast!

Barclay Street Real Estate 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Dynamite Boxing Club is an exceptional gym run by exceptional people. Our company has done several of their group team building events at Dynamite. Our employees love the challenges and Shane goes above and beyond to make the circuits difficult, but also fun. Nothing brings employees closer together than torture by your friendly neighbourhood personal trainer, Shane Thompson! :)

Sarah Elizabeth 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love Dynamite Boxing Club! They treat you like family and you'll always get a killer workout, whether you do one on one personal training or join the classes they have throughout the week. Love this place and the entire Dynamite team.

Jason Wilton 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I'm a seasoned boxer and have trained in gyms all over North America for 30+ years. Dynamite is a classic boxing gym with some modern updates, but what puts it above the rest is the atmosphere. A lot of people get nervous about walking into a boxing gym, however the team at Dynamite have created an excellent environment for veteran boxers and beginners. All of the staff are incredibly welcoming to people from all walks and they've cultivated a real family atmosphere. Whether you're a pro, amateur or just somebody looking to get in shape, Dynamite has something to offer everyone.

Greg Deibert / Deb Krueger 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I've joined gyms, made New Year's resolutions to get fit and never kept up with it. And then I joined Dynamite. I've been pushed beyond what I thought I could do, I'm wiping sweat from my eyes every class, and going 3 times a week for over a year. This is the place for an intense work-out and where you will exceed beyond any of your previous fitness goals.

Tegan Goble 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Love taking my kids to Dynamite. The coaches are motivating and the staff is friendly. Great place for team dryland!!

Mike O'Brien 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: You aren't going to find a better gym, or workout, than Dynamite. I've been going as often as possible since I first joined the gym several months ago, and that's because of the atmosphere in the gym, the quality of the workouts and the coaches that are constantly encouraging me to push my physical limits. I also recently brought my daughter for her first class, and I don't think there's a better endorsement someone can give than entrusting their child with someone, but being exposed to the culture of the gym is something I genuinely believe will only benefit her. I can't recommend this place strongly enough, you won't regret joining.

Cam Polski 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Brought our U11 Raiders hockey team here for dryland training..... Didn't know what to expect, BUT we will be back! It was fun for all the players and the coaches got to be involved in the workout (much needed for us fatties). It was fun to have them all there and having a great time! Thanks Dynamite for your amazing session with our kids! -Coach Cam

Fantastic experience: A year ago, I was suffering with stress, unfortunately stress affects all aspects of your life, work, family, fitness, you name it. Therefore, I was looking for activities during my lunch time close to where I work. Luckily Dynamite Boxing club is close by, and I was able to get a try out class. During the try work out with Shane, my body was in pain, shock and did not response, however he continued pushing me until I overcome my limitations, from that moment on my life has complete change. Something clicks on me. I am no longer suffering with stress, it is just discomfort, my mind is sharp, focused, and my body is ready to take any challenge, I embrace pain and I am always pushing me to the limits. If you are looking to challenge yourself, join Dynamite.

Fantastic experience: Dynamite Boxing is amazing! The staff, the facility and the atmosphere are all super fun and comfortable. You feel very welcomed the second you walk through the door. I have used Dynamite boxing multiples times for my son's Hockey Team dryland and team building but also for additional on-ice development. I can't say enough how wonderful Shane and the team are with the kids. They are organized, encouraging, highly skilled and motivating both on and off the ice. They work with many sport teams and individuals yet are always flexible and accommodating. We love Dynamite Boxing and highly recommend!!!

Gillian Schindel 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: After working in the fitness industry for many years and trying out all different kinds of classes and facilities, I can honestly say the crew at Dynamite stand out. At this gym it's not just about elaborate equipment and trendy programming, it's about mindset, dedication, and tough love. The workouts are tough, the people are wonderful.

Gabby Sison 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Training at Dynamite honestly made it so hard for me to train anywhere else! It's so much more than just working out, everyone is just so welcoming and they genuinely want you to succeed. I trained with Kamin and even though I was mostly weight lifting, throwing in some boxing as cardio was awesome. I highly recommend trying it!! Also a really fun way to blow off some steam haha

Happy Built 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Honestly one of the best experiences of my life. It's more than just a workout and it's more than just boxing. Shane is passionate, dedicated, and I couldn't ask for a better coach. Try out one of the trainers they seriously know what they're doing. i made more progress in 2 months with Kamin than I did in 8 months on my own (injuries). If your reading this wondering if it's the gym for you, I'll tell you right now it is. Come and join the family I promise you won't regret it! To Shane, B, OG, Kamin, and the rest of the coaches/staff, Thank you.

Fantastic experience: Dynamite Boxing Club is so much more than just a Boxing gym. I have had the pleasure of being a part of this ORG since the beginning. Dynamite offers something for all ages and sizes. The facility is Beautiful, and all of the equipment is cleaned/wiped down right after use which I appreciate. The culture is 100% built on supporting and mentoring ALL members. Every Coach is super supportive and driven to motivate your success. Whether you have chosen a particular Class or a One on One with a Coach, it's structured and every Member/Coach in that gym supports the other. Absolute BEST gym in the City!

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym, amazing coaches, amazing equipment, amazing swag. I've been boxing since I was 13 in NS and when I moved out to Calgary, I had the hardest time finding a place I call home and family within the gym. Until I met Shane. After that he had me in his gym immediately working out, getting back into fight shape and ready to fight again. Thanks for everything you guys do.

Fantastic experience: I can't even BEGIN to say enough good things about Dynamite Boxing Club. I am so very proud to say I train there, and also to be part of the Dynamite "family"! The owners, Shane and Jamna, make everyone feel so welcome, no matter what level of experience you have. The coaching is INCREDIBLE, and I am truly thankful for all the skill development and knowledge of the sport I receive every time I train there! The members are amazing, the classes are intense, i have made great friends there, and i feel inspired and motivated every time i step in the door! If you are looking to try boxing, or if you have experience and are looking for a club, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND checking it out!

Fantastic experience: Coach Shane Thompson is a true professional. As a professional coach myself, I’m particular on who I trust coaching me and my athletes.

Fantastic experience: If you’re looking for a place to call your second home this is the spot . The staff/ coaches really care about you and your needs as a boxer, athlete, or your weight training . If you’re a new to the sport and looking to learn to throw and move but not sure about getting hit , the coaches will respect your pace and comfort level . If you’re looking to get in the ring and fight the coaches have an immense amount of knowledge on the craft of boxing. This is also a great facility if you wanted to get your kids into boxing as there are multiple kids classes and half of the coaches are fathers themselves so they’re great with kids . During this time of covid Dynamite boxing club has upheld the highest standards of cleanliness and has had multiple inspections by the city and has passed every time. I’d recommend dynamite boxing club 10 times out of 10 for anyone looking to start or further their boxing skills , athletic ability and strength .

Fantastic experience: Beautiful facility, a rather large gym for being privately owned. Lots of great, clean equipment to use! Where the punching bags are there is a wonderful view of downtown and the mountains for cooldowns! Shane is an amazing trainer and will push you to your limit but he knows when you've hit it. Definitely reccomend this gym.
