About Us

Wood floors, brick walls, heavybags, and a ring — Shadowboxing Gym is the essence of real American boxing. The sharp crack of leather and the rhythmic sounds of the speed bag and skip-ropes attract a clientele from all walks of life. Doctors, students, actors, lawyers and professional fighters all walk through the doors of Shadowboxing for the same reasons: develop skills, get in shape and create a better body.

Set off of Beverly Blvd. in Los Angeles, Shadowboxing has been providing quality instruction and a professional training atmosphere since 1995. Owned by personal trainer Jon Aranita and former pro-boxer Steve Petramale, the gym has flourished with a schedule of energetic classes and a team of talented private trainers.

Why Shadowboxing?

Shadowboxing is committed to the individual. With classes that never exceed 12 students, an emphasis is placed not only on conditioning but also on the fundamentals. The skilled staff will teach you movement, body mechanics, technique and ring strategy. And as you hone your skills you are getting an incredible total-body workout. Shadowboxing has a relaxed but professional atmosphere where anybody is welcome, as long as they have respect for others in the gym.
