"Xavier is a really supportive coach to all fighters at Gleason gym and works very well with other coaches as well. As a Coach, he doesn’t just let you put in work alone, he also put in the work with the team and pushes everyone to our full potential. As a brother he always checks up on you to see how you doing and puts light in you when life gets dark. When he arrives at the gym he gives other coaches respect and is willing to help train other fighters if one of the other coaches unavailable, he want to see winners not quitters. Truly I say he’s the best Coach I’ve had



Sherwood Kwame Reece, a.k.a. Q, stepped into the ring at Starrett City Boxing Club as a teen, having falling in love with exercise and learning from the late Jimmy O’Pharrow, and later former Olympian Reggie Ford to become a professional boxer. I taught at the Aerospace High Performance Center under legendary Michael Olajide Jr. My specialities are holistic wellness, nutrition and injury prevention. I trained a Golden Gloves champion, movie celebrities, and appeared in TV shows such as White Collar Brawlers season two and ABCNews.com. “There’s no better workout than boxing. To be able to last in the ring, you have to be in top shape. Develop your mental readiness and physical ability to combat potential attackers. Through the repetition of simple yet effective techniques in increasingly difficult situations, you will be empowered to face—and not fear—challenges. Workout will include basic strengthening and conditioning, skill development, and application of skill in real-life situations.
