Program Location Update
Coach Al Franco Boxing no longer holds scheduled men’s boxing classes at The Boxing Lab in Newport Beach.
Coach Al’s structured morning boxing programs are now held Monday through Thursday at A1 Boxing Club, located at 6070 Warner Avenue in Huntington Beach, California.
The Huntington Beach program provides real boxing instruction for beginners, adults, amateur competitors, and experienced fighters. Training focuses on footwork, linear and lateral movement, range control, positioning, defense, timing, punching mechanics, conditioning, and controlled skill development.
Private coaching for clients from Newport Beach and surrounding Orange County communities may still be available by appointment. However, all regularly scheduled Coach Al Franco Boxing classes are now held in Huntington Beach.

MENS BOXING CLASSES IN HUNTINGTON BEACH
Finding the right men’s boxing classes in Huntington Beach is not just about getting a workout. It is about learning boxing the correct way.
Coach Al Franco Boxing offers small men’s boxing classes inside A1 Boxing Club in Huntington Beach, located at 6070 Warner Ave, Huntington Beach, CA 92647.
These classes are designed for men who want to train with structure, learn real boxing fundamentals, and improve through proper coaching instead of random workouts.
Beginners Classes are currently held Monday thru Thursdays from 6:00 AM to 7:30 AM and 9:00 AM to 10:30 AM.
Real Boxing, Not a Fitness Gimmick
Many boxing-style classes use boxing movements for general fitness, but they do not always teach real boxing technique. Coach Al Franco Boxing is different.
Training is built around real boxing fundamentals, including stance, balance, footwork, defense, mitt work, bag work, conditioning, and controlled progress. The goal is to help men learn how to move, punch, defend, and train correctly.
You do not have to compete to train properly. Most men who join are not looking for a fight. They want structure, skill, coaching, and the challenge of training like a fighter without being required to compete. Our goal is to build your confidence enough to start trying what your learning in the ring.
What the Men’s Boxing Classes Focus On
The men’s boxing classes in Huntington Beach are focused on teaching boxing step by step. Each class is built around controlled improvement, proper mechanics, and real boxing movement.
Training may include:
Proper boxing stance and balance
Linear and lateral footwork
Defensive movement starts with the feet.
Mitt work (our punch numbers, responsive drills & technique)
Bag work
Punching mechanics
Conditioning through real boxing drills
Controlled technical progress
This is not a class where everyone is thrown into random drills with no correction. The program is structured so clients can improve their technique, timing, movement, and understanding of boxing over time.
Beginner and Novice Men’s Boxing Classes
The Monday and Wednesday 6:00 AM classes are built for beginner and novice level men who want to learn boxing correctly from the start.
Beginners are not expected to already know how to box. The class is designed to teach the foundation first: stance, footwork, basic punches, defense, balance, movement, and proper mechanics.
Class size is limited to 8 so coaching can stay focused and controlled.
Advanced Boxing Training
Advanced boxing training may also be available by approval and availability for men with experience or those who are ready for a higher level of technical work.
This may include more detailed mitt work, defensive drills, controlled contact, ring IQ, conditioning, and preparation. It is a good start for future amateur or professional boxing goals.
Advanced training is not required for regular class members. It is an option for those who are ready for more serious boxing development.
