Charm City Boxing

Charm City Boxing is an old-school boxing gym that trains youth and adults in boxing, self-defense and pro-level work. The gym has a Youth Academy, and its founders have trained fighters including Emanuel "Tranzformer" Taylor, Amir Mansoor and WBC champion Franchón Crews-Dezurn, along with several Golden Gloves champions.

Classes for kids start around age 6, and the gym has recently added Saturday classes with limited spots, so enrolling early is worth it. People can sign up through an inquiry form or by calling or texting the gym. The gym is on Pulaski Highway in Abingdon, Maryland, and it serves people who want to compete as well as those who just want to get in shape.
