About Us
Round By Round ~ Inspiration Is Found
At Gifted Hands Boxing Academy we believe there’s a champion in each student in our program.
Our vision is to awaken that champion that is lying dormant, so that our students can experience the life that they were destined for.
We believe that one of the greatest things you can do for a person, is to change the way they think.
"If you can change the way one thinks; you can change their direction in life". - Coach Joe
Joe's Story
THE RING MASTER
"When I was fifteen years old, I had a street fight that changed my life forever. That street fight was a loss that would make me a "champion" for the rest of my life; as I was determined to never loose again! Afterwards, I began to train with the legendary Ted "Tiger" Lowry, the only man to go the distance with Rocky Marciano. After spending thousands of hours training and a Professional Debut, I discovered my passion was to "awaken the champions" in others. I have since dedicated 40+ years of "awakening champions within"; both in and out of the ring". - Coach Joe
