The Boxing Gym Florissant is home to some of the finest Instructors in St. Louis. Our Competition Teams exist not only for those individuals who wish to compete in Combat Sports, but also for those individuals who simply want to learn the varied skills of an MMA fighter without having to compete. By being a member one of the Teams you can also expect to get into the best shape of your life as a result of our conditioning drills.

IMPORTANT: Whereas some facilities are known for producing great strikers, and other great ground-fighters, The Boxing Gym is known for producing well-balanced fighters who can win whether on their feet or on the ground. Ours is the most unique and cost-effective training in St. Louis.

TBG Florissant Teams

Domain MMA – Recently recognized by the Ground and Pound Show as the #1 Best New Amateur MMA Team in St. Louis. Under the leadership of Professional MMA fighter, Professional Boxer, and Coach Dustin Severs, Domain MMA is training some of the best up-and-coming fighters in the region and already has several Amateur Title Belts to its credit. You will learn submission grappling (taught by a Brazillian Jiu-Jitsu Ace), in conjunction with an extremely effective fusion of boxing, muay thai, and wrestling. Florissant Team Members will also benefit from access to a full-size, competition cage in which to train (located off-site), and cross training opportunities with other athletes to assure that you will be continuously challenged.

Boxing Team - Boxing (sometimes known as the sweet science, pugilism, or English boxing) is a combat sport in which two participants of similar weight fight each other with their fists. Victory is achieved if the opponent is knocked down and unable to get up before the referee counts to ten (a Knockout, or KO) or if the opponent is deemed too injured to continue (a Technical Knockout, or TKO). If there is no stoppage of the fight before an agreed number of rounds, a winner is determined either by the referee's decision or by judges' scorecards. Our club is affiliated with USA Boxing, sanctioning body for Amateur Boxing in the United States and trains athletes for local competition, Golden Gloves, and national tournaments such as the annual Ringside Tournament in Kansas City, MO.
