About your boxing coach

I’ve coached boxing in Harlem since 2014 through Stray Boxing Clinic, working with adults and teens—from complete beginners and fitness clients to experienced fighters sharpening their technique. I teach strong fundamentals: balance, footwork, defense, clean punching, and conditioning—without ego or intimidation. Your first session includes a skill assessment, personalized instruction, and a clear training plan built around your experience, goals, and pace.

I’ve been training with StrayBoxing more than 5yrs. Before, I’d had a few sessions at other gyms (including Gleason’s) but this was my first time working one on one. In this environment my dedication has escalated and with the attention to detail and technique, my form is clearly better. Stray is a passionate trainer and the sessions are rigorous and focused on form. It’s been a rewarding experience.

My massage therapist told me I was carrying a lot of tension in my shoulders and I needed to punch…. around this time I became aware of Stray Boxing. Jon Stray’s Boxing program is helping me loosen up the tension in my neck and after the first 2 weeks I immediately noticed my body slimming down with sculpted definition. My strength and endurance has improved this past month. Adding boxing to my cross- training, as a certified female yoga instructor over 60, has been fun, invigorating and helped to achieve my bathing suit :bikini: goals for my next Yoga Flava retreat vacation. Positive Communication, Quality, Professionalism

I highly recommend Jon Stray if you're looking for a fun work out and are interested in actually learning how to box. A lot of "boxing" gyms basically set you up with a heavy bag and tell you to hit it, without any real instruction. Stray will not only teach you how to throw a punch the right way, but the right footwork, head movement, etc. You'll be surprised how much more you get out of the work out when you use proper technique. If you're looking to get into a combat sport, again, I recommend learning the sweet science from Stray.

Stray is extremely dedicated, personalizes lessons to his students' goals, and most importantly he focuses on the finer details in technique. I love working with Stray because he doesn't let me get away with repeating the same mistakes, but always takes the time to explain how I can improve, and why it's important. I highly recommend working with him to anyone looking to learn to box, or even just to get into better shape!

Training with Coach Stray at his private boxing studio has been a game-changer. What really hooked me in was his ability to thoroughly explain boxing mechanics. Example: He will show you how to throw the jab, The reason why we throw the jab, the best time to throw the Jab. The focus is purely on technique; from punches, to combinations , to footwork — no gimmicks, just hard work and real boxing skills

Stray boxing is excellent! Jon works with my son. He is an excellent teacher. He is passionate about his craft. He takes his time to make sure that the sessions are fun and educational. Jon wants everyone to excel not just at boxing but in life! I highly recommend Stay Boxing to anyone who wants to improve the quality of their well being.
