Here’s Your Punchline

The Pines Boxing Company is gearing up to open this August. Located inside TruFit, the business aims to teach all ages and levels how to box safely and effectively as both a workout and an outlet. Owner Victor Malave grew up boxing in Brookly, he even previously ran a boxing school in New York. “This is what I love doing, it’s my passion and it’s calling me back,” he says. 

So how does TruFit fit in? Other than the physical space being inside the gym, it doesn’t — the businesses are completely separate. But there will be membership discounts available for TruFit members and vice-versa.

Victor will be the main trainer and is looking forward to working with the next generation. “Kids need an outlet too. Boxing really helped me out when I was younger. This is my way to give back to the community,” he says. “Boxing teaches you discipline.”

Options for group classes geared toward various levels, and one-on-one lessons will be available. Tiered memberships are up for jabs now. Hooked?Swing over to the website or see the tentative schedule here.
