Cost

  • What's the cost?

    Everyone wants to know this answer!  That's completely natural!  You have finite resources which include time and money.  The short answer is that you can attend class for only $15.  That's all it costs to come to any of our amazing classes! 


    Of course, there is a longer answer too, which is that you can also buy multi-packs.  We offer two very common multi-packs. 


    • 10 Pack:  For $110 you can attend any 10 classes over a period of SIX (6) months
    • "2x per Week": For $90 you attend any 10 classes over a period of ONE (1) month
    • "3x per Week": For $120 you attend any 14 classes over a period of ONE (1) month
    • Unlimited: For $150 you attend as many classes as you can over a ONE (1) month period

    When you schedule a class online, if you already have a package, then one class will be removed from your package.  If not, then you will be prompted to purchase a package.


    Private Lessons:  Private lessons can be booked for $50 per half-hour.  If you would like to have an hour, book back-to-back 30-minute sessions.  We do not offer packages for private lessons at this time.


    NOTE: We are extremely limited in private lesson instruction times due to ongoing staff scheduling issues.  In any class, most of your workout will be done singly at a station, where no other client will be at your station at the same time as you.  Beginners will get a bit more attention from the instructor to get them going.  


    ALSO NOTE: Due to instructor time being limited in class, if you have not pre-booked your class - which also means pre-paying for class - then a $10 late registration fee will be added.  We do not want to charge this fee!  However, handing in your registration and your cash/check/credit card takes instructor time away from your classmates and so we hope this fee encourages you to sign up online before class and thereby exempts you from paying it.


    Finally: YOU do all the hitting!  No one hits you back during class

  • Is there any way to reduce the cost?

    We do have a simple and easy way to reduce your costs - you can refer your friends to the gym.  


    Quite frankly it is more fun to come with friends.  Even though the main workout is individual stations, you are all within the same room and can encourage each other as you go.  Going out somewhere after (we have a lovely Mexican restaurant right across the parking lot) can make the experience more enjoyable. 


    You should already have booked a class for yourself on our booking page.  This will help get your account set up with JJ's Boxing in Momence.


    The friends you refer can get a discount off their first class, and if they sign up for a 2nd class then you will get some dollar credits on your account too!  It is super simple.  On your momence.com home page, just select the menu and go all the way to the bottom to "refer & earn"  - where it says "Select a Host" that is us.  So put in "JJ's" click the magnifying glass and then select JJ's Boxing.  You will get a link that you can copy, and also some buttons to put that link on your socials.  You can also email your friends or text them the link right from that page.   That's it!!  Then they can refer their friends, etc.



  • Can I buy a gift card?

    Yes!  you can buy gift cards online!  Just go to this page (powered by Momence)


    We have common denominations such as

    * $15 -a single drop-in class price

    * $30 - two drop-in prices

    * $90 - four drop-in prices or 1 monthly "2x per week"

    * $110 - the cost of a 10-pack


    See the question on cost as to how the packages work.


    The gift card will be a promo code that is sent to you and can be used like cash on our website to purchase classes.




Online Sign-Up

  • Do I need to sign up?

    The short answer is: We really want you to sign up! 


    Starting in April 2023, our policy is to charge an extra $10 late registration fee if you do not sign up online prior to coming to class.  The reason is simple - we want our instructors to take as little time doing administrative work (1 minute taking attendance) versus as much time teaching class for everyone in the class.  We hope this fee encourages everyone to sign up before coming to the gym.


    The long answer is: You can just show up to class and bring either cash (exact change appreciated) or a check made out to JJ's Boxing


    HOWEVER, some classes are not yet attended very well, and if no one has signed up, the instructor may not show up either.  This will leave you a little frustrated because the door will be locked and instead of having a "dream class" where you are essentially getting a private lesson for less than 1/4 the cost, you have wasted your time coming to a locked gym. 


    There is also the potential for the opposite problem, which is that our gym has limited space.  If you have signed up, you are guaranteed to be able to attend that class.  If you just drop in, if there is space, then we will be happy to bring you into class, but if not, you will be turned away.  So ultimately, the long answer is that we also really want you to sign up!

  • How can I sign up?

    We use a system called Momence which will keep track of your user and how many classes you have purchased.  It is a cloud-based software that is PCI compliant (meaning the banks trust it to appropriately use and store your credit cards).  It offers a widget that we have put into our web pages here to allow for class sign-ups.  The widgets should be able to be viewed in your phone browser, but you can also access a page hosted at Momence 


    In the Filter by Class section, you can select the class you want to sign up for, and then it will display the upcoming times for those classes.

  • What if I need to cancel?

    You should be able to cancel your class from your Momence account - and perhaps the email that you received confirming your sign-up even has a link to cancel.


    Our official policy is to cancel 2 hours before class starts to receive your credit back.  If you do not cancel, your class credit will be used up as you occupied a spot in class and prevented someone else from signing up for that spot. 


    If you cannot cancel online for some reason, or it is less than 2 hours before class begins, please email us at info@jjboxing.com or text/call our number at 608-318-3835 and tell us you are not going to be able to make it.  We will then assess the fullness of the class and decide if we will credit you back or not.  Again, our policy is not to, but we may make an exception if the conditions merit.



Boxing Fears/Interest

  • I don't want to get hit!

    That's OKAY! !  We mostly teach the elements of Boxing and use that to run our class to do exercises that will increase your endurance, strength, agility, and confidence.  However, the client does all the hitting - whether it be a bag or the instructor.  And some stations don't involve throwing punches at all.  Boxers need to train their bodies hard both inside and outside the ring, and our classes are mostly outside-the-ring work.

  • I WANT to get hit! Can you train me to compete?

    You are in luck!  While most of our classes are "fitness boxing" classes, we are sponsoring a Boxing Club.  Members who sign up for Boxing Club will be expected to train at our special club classes on Wednesday and Friday nights, along with taking at least one other Fitness Boxing class per week.  The commitment is a minimum of 12 months with monthly dues.  


    There will be advanced sparring and opportunities to attend tournaments with the team.  Membership in USA Boxing is required.  We recommend taking at least a few Fitness Boxing classes prior to signing up for Boxing Club and speaking with the Coach before making the commitment.


    When ready, you can join HERE.

General

  • What should I wear or bring?

    Wear clothes as you normally would to do a workout.  Also, bring either gym shoes, or plan to work out in bare feet as we do not allow street shoes on our mat.


    For boxing classes:


    On your very first class, you will be able to borrow wraps and gloves from the gym.  This is because we want you to experience the class and know if you enjoy it without having to invest in additional equipment.  After your first class, you can decide if you would like to purchase your own gloves or rent them from the gym.  We recommend you purchase your own wraps as they are not very expensive.


    We have a filtered drinking fountain which also has a water bottle filler if you want to bring your own water bottle from home and fill it at the gym.

  • What ages can attend?

    Our Youth programs generally run from Kindergarten to 8th grade, and our Adult/Teen programs then start with 9th graders and older.  Children 11 years old and older have been known to join our Teen/Adult Boxing classes if they are deemed ready by the instructor.

  • How experienced do you need to be?

    ALL experience levels are welcome to every class!  Our goal is to get you started quickly with a basic understanding, and then we work incrementally on improving those skills in every session.  Our workouts include different stations where you will work to build skills like agility, stamina, strength, quickness, core, and of course confidence.  The most fun station - for most people at least - is boxing the instructor.  That is where all your other skills come together.  When you are done with class, many people find that they have not only sweated away calories but also stress.

  • Can I rep JJ's Boxing with some clothing or swag?

    Certainly! We have a lot of available products that you can purchase for yourself or as a gift for a close friend or a loved one.  We carry clothing for men, women, and children.

  • What about COVID-19?

    Now that the pandemic is really more of an endemic, we have reduced our restrictions.


    ✔️ We encourage clients to wear a mask if that makes them feel safer, but do not require it


    ✔️ Our stations on our circuit training are at least 6 feet apart


    ✔️ We have sanitizing wipes at each station


    ✔️ We clean our mats twice a day


    ✔️ If you do not feel well - please do not come to class *


    * if you cancel for feeling ill, please let us know so we can ensure that your class ticket is available for use when you feel better - or have recovered after a quarantine period.


    As always, we are Fighting for Fitness, and you can't be fit if you can't be well.
