"Not everything in life is about boxing, but everything in boxing is about life"
Our mission
At TTY Boxing & Fitness, our mission is deeply rooted in a story of resilience and determination. Founded by Jonathan & Rigo De La Cruz, our gym draws inspiration from their remarkable journey of overcoming adversity. Jonathan experienced firsthand the devastating impact of gun violence when he was tragically shot, leaving him paralyzed from the chest down. However, fueled by his indomitable spirit and the lessons instilled by his father, a retired professional boxer, Jonathan credits his unwavering mental toughness to the principles learned in the boxing ring.
Driven by their own experience, Jonathan & Rigo established TTY Boxing & Fitness with the vision of providing a sanctuary for individuals facing similar challenges. By harnessing the power of boxing, Jonathan, Rigo, and his team are dedicated to empowering at-risk youth, young adults, seniors, and boxing enthusiasts alike. Our programs not only aim to curb gun violence and foster discipline but also to cultivate a sense of belonging and strength within our community.
At TTY Boxing & Fitness, we believe that every individual has the potential to rise above adversity and achieve greatness. Through mentorship, structured training, and community support, we strive to be a beacon of hope and transformation for all who walk through our doors.
