02The Gym

Two decades
One community

This isn't a fitness franchise. The coaches know your name and the kids train next to the fighters.

At Sugar, you're not stuck on a bag all class. You'll learn real boxing through footwork, mitt work, offense, defense, and partner drills. Train like a boxer, get in great shape, and have fun doing it.

Dana Donahue has owned and operated Sugar for over twenty years. Most days you'll find her on the floor.
