Bars Boxing

Excellent coaching by Akmal, who is a 2 time kick boxing world champion and a multi national Uzbek champ (9 time adult and who knows how many junior champ)
Great guy, really passionate about his sport. Akmal knows excellent soviet based technique of striking! Now the ussr is taking over with Klitchko's reign, GGG, Kovalevs...

The nice thing i found about the Staten Island location that it is not as busy as the brooklyn location (25-30 guys) and there is a lot more individual attention from Akmal!

Excellent coach

My son Jordan has been taking kickboxing classes at Bars Boxing that is in Staten Island, New York for about 6 months now, he loves it! Akmal (I hope I spelled his name correctly) is a wonderful instructor. He motivates the kids while building their self-esteem. The greatest part is that my son learns so much not just in terms of fighting but in real life. He learns about focus, motivation, competition, team work, and the list goes on. The classes are intense and everyone can expect to be beaten and torn down but again everyone can always expect to be one day better. The team pushes you to your limit because they expect the best from you. I am truly happy that Jordan train with them.

My high school friend kept telling me how great of a workout these kickboxing classes gave her and that I needed to try it out. I really like that coach Akmal took the time to call me (my friend explain to him how shy I am) and welcome me to my first class and then checked in with me after class to see how much I liked it. I took my first class a few months ago and I was amazed. The coach is awesome and energetic, and the classes are so worth it. I really enjoy the encouragement I get from all the members in class. I was out of class for a little while because of health reasons...but I was welcomed back with a fun class and the coach that were really happy to see me back. I love Bars Boxing. It's an awesome kickboxing school in Staten Island and you will have so much fun that you won't even know that it's just an hour because you're always moving. Check it out!!

Amazing facility, affordable prices, and a coach Akmal Zakirov that brings the best in technique, motivation, and atmosphere. Bars Boxing – kickboxing school in Staten Island is truly a family of like minded people who motivate each other. The kids' class is high quality; my students compete against them at tournaments and always have tough matches. Check out the gym, you won't be disappointed.

Kickboxing classes here in Bars Boxing in Staten Island are really better than anywhere else. I've personally had the privileges to learn kickboxing at other locations in New York. I can't say enough about Bars Boxing and their instructor. I started kickboxing there back in August of 2011. I absolutely love everything about it. The workout is Amazing, the instructor is Amazing and the members are Amazing. It feels like one big happy family and I would strongly recommend this school to anyone who is looking to get into the best shape of their lives and you can have fun doing it. I'm stronger and leaner today than I was three years ago. Master Zakirov knows how to make you feel like a million dollars as well as all the other team members. So go ahead and give it a try for yourself, I guarantee you going to love it!
