Title Boxing Club Now Open in Woodbury

The facility "brings the world of boxing to the public," according to the general manager, but people needn't be worried about getting a punch in the face.

A lot of people want to box, but they don’t want the pop in the mouth that goes with it.

That’s according to Irie Collins, general manager of Title Boxing Club in Woodbury.

“It’s all about getting fit and not hit,” he said.

The facility features 54 heavy bags, one speed bag, a cardio area and a ring.

Since it opened last Thursday, the response has been strong, Collins said, with classes of more than 40 participants at times.

Founded in Kansas City in 2007, the boxing club began franchising a year later, Collins said. There are now about 110 clubs across the country, and 14 more are coming to Minnesota.

A grand opening is planned for 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 3, and the Woodbury Chamber of Commerce will hold a ribbon cutting Friday, Aug. 2.

Monthly memberships vary, ranging from $59 to $79. For more information, call 651-304-1920 or visit the Woodbury Title Boxing Club website.
