Start off warming up with stretching and getting loose. Clients will be required to use Boxing Gloves while I use Punching Mitts. Clients will learn in detail boxing terminology and the meaning of different punches. Drills will include, proper way to stand, proper way to throw punches... Offensive moves such as, jabs, one - two's, hooks, uppercuts, ect... Defensive moves such as, block, dip, roll and parrying. While in the gym we can use the punching bags and workout in the Boxing Ring. I'll also use my body pad from time to time to train a client how to hit the body. Finish off with sit ups and leg lifts.
Benefits of training with me: Increased Cardio, Weight Loss, Toned Body, Stress Relief, and Learn the Art of Boxing.
Exodus 33:14 - "And the Lord replied, 'I myself will go with you and give you success.'"

Austin (CoachUp client)
Coach Art is amazing. Very patient and knowledgeable and was able to diagnose my level and cater to it accordingly in our first session - will certainly be booking more!
Amber (CoachUp client)
One session with Coach Art, and I was sold! From the beginning, his workout was engaging, challenging, and a whole lot of fun! I've studied with other private coaches in the past, and I can say with confidence that my first session with Art and the process of learning each other's style and rhythm for mitt-work and combinations, it was the most seamless and it helped me feel right back at home when I came back to the sport. Art is incredibly talented and encouraging, and I'm so grateful to have the opportunity to train and to learn from him. An absolutely wonderful coach!
I. (CoachUp client)
Great coach!
Frank (CoachUp client)
It's clear that Art is an exceptional coach who brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to his training sessions. His ability to break down complex movements and techniques into simple, easy-to-understand steps is a testament to his skill as a coach.
Art's focus on proper technique is particularly impressive. He understands that good technique is essential to boxing success, and he is committed to helping me master the fundamentals first. Whether it's working on striking, or defensive maneuvers, Art takes a patient and methodical approach to coaching that allows his students to progress at their own pace. I particular enjoyed the quizzes he throws into the training program!
Beyond his technical expertise, Art is also a wonderful motivator and very inspirational. His positive attitude and infectious energy create a welcoming and supportive training environment that encourages myself and people around me to push themselves to their limits. Whether you're a seasoned athlete or a beginner just starting out, Art has a way of making you feel like a champion. Thank you Art and I look forward to our next session.
Overall, I would highly recommend Art Jimmerson as a boxing coach to anyone looking to develop their skills as a boxer. His dedication, expertise, and passion for the sport make him an exceptional coach who is sure to help you achieve your goals in the ring.

Just met coach art, and the experience was better then I could’ve imagined, amazing coach and I can’t wait for the future.
Joel (CoachUp client)
I had the privilege of training with Coach Art and I must say, it was an exceptional experience. From the very first session, Coach Art displayed a wealth of knowledge and passion for boxing. He tailored my session to my specific needs and skill level, constantly pushing me to improve while still making the experience enjoyable. The training sessions were intense but Coach Art always found a way to make them fun and engaging.
I highly recommend Coach Art to anyone looking to improve their boxing skills, whether you're a beginner or a seasoned fighter. He is truly one of the best in the business and I am grateful for the time I spent training with him.
Kevin (CoachUp client)
My wife and I train with Coach Art, a former pro with a long storied boxing career! He is a seriously kind and encouraging coach, while pushing you towards where you want to be, whether you want to learn to fight, do it for cardio, or just have fun. He adapts to suit you. In the first two lessons for two people at once, we've went over quick boxing philosophy, basic punches, defenses, seven five-punch head-body combinations, even a couple counters! Even splitting the session between my wife and me, I still get quite a bit of cardio in. Looking forward to keep learning the science of boxing, and learn how to hit and not get hit with Coach Art!

Richard E. Banks / Attorney (Testimonial)
There's a big difference between "boxercise" and boxing training. Art Jimmerson is a former, very successful, professional fighter who trains his clients with the rigorous training that is both fun and highly effective exercise. If you are lucky enough to train with Art you will get in shape and have a ton of fun with a great guy.
Tina M. / Bus driver (Testimonial)
When I signed up for a boxing class at the UFC gym I thought it would be more like a boxercise class, but Art actually taught me/us how to box. He is very discipline and taught everything from the correct way to put on hand wraps, boxing gloves, combinations, how to stand correctly and how to, his words 'hit and not get hit' and so much more. I had no idea that the class would be such a workout but I really enjoyed my lessons with Art.
Al / Youth Counselor (Testimonial)
Art is a great boxing instructor. His techniques of teaching is so thorough and precise. He teaches a lot of pro-material. I feel blessed to have a trainer that was a World Class Professional Fighter. He's the best!
