Hackney Boxing Club

What sets us apart and what we stand for

Sweeney's is much more than ‘just a boxing gym.'

We understand the impact that a positive environment has, not only on mental health but also on motivation and morale outside of the gym. At Sweeney's, you'll never leave feeling worse than when you walked in. Our mission is to empower individuals from all walks of life and experience levels, not just physically but also by instilling the mindset and attributes of a high-level boxer, preparing you to confront life's challenges with confidence, resilience, and unwavering determination.

Situated in the heart of Hackney, where our founder Aron Sweeney grew up, we offer a unique blend of technical boxing training, engaging fitness classes, and a nurturing, family-like environment. Our coaches bring a wealth of boxing experience and are dedicated to helping you reach your goals. Whether you aspire to master the art of boxing, improve your fitness, gain strength, boost your confidence, or enhance your overall well-being, we've got you covered.

Why did we start Sweeney's Boxing?

It's quite simple, really. Boxing gyms and martial arts clubs have had an incredibly positive impact on everyone who has walked through their doors, including our coaches. We just want to pay forward the gift that boxing has given us.

Our founder, Aron, has spent more than 2 decades training at various combat, fitness, and strength gyms in and around London. Throughout that time, he has witnessed the transformative power of these communities. Over and over, he saw people who were initially hesitant to join a gym become stronger, more resilient, and more confident within just a few months of training. Aron also recognised that boxing gyms tend to fall into two extremes: those that are serious and intimidating often the time with ego-driven sparring, and box fit types, that focus solely on fitness rather than technique.

That's why Aron created Sweeney's Boxing. Our boxing gym in Hackney offers the best of both worlds – a place that caters to aspiring fighters and those seeking the benefits of boxing fitness, all within a real, supportive community.
