Counterpunch Boxing

Best boxing studio in Byron Bay! I’ve trained at several gym/boxing studios both in Byron and Brisbane, Counterpunch has by far exceeded all of them. Pablo is an amazing trainer. Whether you’re a first-timer or a pro, Pablo knows exactly what you need. Not only you would walk out feeling like a badass after each session, you’ll also be fit and strong both physically and mentally. The atmosphere is always warm and welcoming. Kristine and Pablo will make you feel right at home as soon as you walk through the door. So do yourself a favor and give it a go. You can thank me later ;)

A greeting of smiling faces and expert guidance ... these guys are the best!! An all round body workout and a technical focus too. So much fun you'll wonder where the time went. But a warning ... it's addictive!!! :)

Where else do you see a tenfold improvement in one lesson? I couldn't skip to save my life. It was one skip and then trip; but after Pablo's patient, good-humoured tutelage I was performing the minor miracle - for me - of ten in a row. The bloke is a born teacher and presides, with an exceedingly pleasant manner, over a particularly user-friendly boxing gym. The gym and Pablo are both great assets to Byron. Give them a go, you'll be glad you did.

We absolutely love Counterpunches’ kids classes. Our children attend twice a week and it is an all round fitness and focus lesson for children. Love it!!!!

Pablo’s boxing classes are more than just about fitness, they have taught me discipline, strength and endurance. I absolutely love the classes and come away fitter and stronger every time. Would highly recommend everyone try Counterpunch, you will be hooked after 1 day!

I've been training with Ellie for roughly five months now and it has been an absolutely transforming experience for me!I never thought I would EVER go to a gym. I used to wear a uniform of “black, baggy, and invisible”. I wouldn't allow anyone to take my photo, and would avoid getting into my swimsuit at all costs. I was in a bad place. It was when I hit an all time low, that Ellie reached out to me.I immediately felt so comfortable training with Ellie. She has guided me with eating plans, and exciting goals. I find that I now have more energy throughout the day, and a happy, healthy lifestyle. She gave me a reason to get up in the morning. Since training with Ellie, I've started to challenge myself in many areas of my life after seeing myself succeed in just one. I received a new confidence that I just didn't see coming.Counterpunch has a safe and happy atmosphere - perfect if, like me, the thought of the gym makes you feel uncomfortable. The team are truly supportive, and welcome those from all walks of life, and fitness levels. I always leave feeling full of encouragement, and ready to take on the day ahead of me.

Pablo is an amazing coach. Has the ability to challenge and bring you to your personal edge. Love training with him since years. He is so patient , knowledgeable and has a big heart. Never needs to show off. Great with kids and adults . An absolute pleasure to train with . Would recommend Pablos gym to anyone.Kasha

You will love this gym! Pablo takes a lot of time and care to ensure every person who attends a class gets not only a worthwhile workout, but has constant improvement on their technique. I've learnt more in the past 6 months than I have in 7 years of boxing. I have nothing but praise for this studio. Expect to show up, train bloody hard and walk away challenged everytime. Highly recommend!
