Meet your Coaches
Jess is the owner and gym's chief instructor - she teaches most of the small-group classes and oversees the sparring program. She holds a current CPR-certification and safety is ALWAYS her number one priority. She wants you to get everything possible from your workout; her goal is for you to leave every class covered in sweat and feeling like you've made some real improvements to your boxing technique. She has daytime, evening, and weekend availability for personal training and private coaching and gets really fired up designing specialized personal training and boxing regimens for her private clients.
Injured? Out of Shape? New to Boxing?
No problem! Jess is comfortable working with all abilities and fitness levels, and tailors her workouts to optimize each class member's capabilities and physical limitations. While Jess will push you to challenge yourself and offers an intense workout, all classes are meant to be self-paced. Slow down if you need a breather; push harder if you can handle more! You'll see a great range of ages, genders, and fitness levels in all the small-group classes (and lots of modifications being made for all kinds of injuries!)
Have a fitness or weight goal in mind?
Jess is thrilled to offer free basic nutritional support as part of your gym membership, and tailored nutritional programs for those interested in achieving specific nutrition goals. She is almost as passionate talking about food planning and meal prep as she is about boxing. Your goals are her goals! :)
Just Love Boxing? Want to learn how to "really" look like Tyson, Lomachenko, or Ali?
Jess is a passionate boxing enthusiast that is just as excited to correct your form as she is to nerd out with you over an upcoming fight. Like for hours. Seriously.
Wanna fight?
Jess has lots of experience training amateur boxers and would love to corner your first (or seventeenth!!) fight. She holds current USA Boxing certifications in Level I Coaching and Level I Referee/Judging. And her coaching doesn't end when you walk out the door - she's with you all the way, from nutrition, to outside-the-gym workout plans, to the occasional (or frequent!) emotional support. She absolutely loves creating progressive training programs that are individually-tailored to each fighter. Jess is also super proud to have an ongoing relationship (both as an alumni and as a coach) with Haymakers for Hope, a charity that gives "ordinary" people the chance to get in the ring and fight for the first time while simultaneously raising money to cure cancer.

About Tammy:
Tammy Schuetz Cook has been a practitioner of yoga for over 25 years. Until a few years ago, Tammy was deeply involved in intense physical activities like boxing, obstacle course races and CrosssFit. She particated in Haymakers for Hope in 2016, winning her fight and raising over $17K for cancer research. She continued to box for about five years after that, but once she turned 50 and developed a heart condition, she realized her body needed a change. She listened to her body and returned to daily yoga, helping her find balance, ease and acceptance, which lead her to teacher training in 2022. She completed her 200-hour yoga teacher training at Medfield Yoga Studio and has completed continuing education courses through the Down Under School of Yoga in Brookline, MA.
Tammy's classes are a dynamic and reflective experience that blends postural sequences to strengthen the body and the mind. This balanced, mindful workout promotes full-body wellness, offering a powerful mix of strength and flexibility targeting thr boxer's body. Tammy emphasizes staying present while exploring self-awareness, empowerment, patience, compassion and acceptance.
