About Our School

Griffins Boxing and Fitness is dedicated to making your boxing experience challenging and exciting in a fun and inviting atmosphere. Our instructors are the personable, friendly and get the job done. They have studied and trained under the National Coaching Certification Program (NCCP), BCRPA and the Glove System© Coaching Certification Program (GSCCP) to join the ranks of the Griffins Boxing and Fitness Team; their primary goal, to assist you in being the best you can be. It is our goal to raise the quality of life for all our members through fitness, confidence and belonging. Our carefully structured programs go far beyond technical skill, high paced cardio or one on one attention…we offer a difference to your life.

We are not the typical “boxing gym”.  Although we honour the ‘sweet science’ and believe in specializing in this art, we believe in dynamic training and are constantly seeking new and innovative training methods to bring to our programs.  We offer a variety of programs to suit your personal needs and busy lifestyle. With early morning Boot Camp, Moring Cardio classes and lunch time sessions to evening High Cardio Boxing and Technical Glove System© classes, we have your program…and, we are conveniently open 7 days a week.

With over 6000 sq ft of training space, Griffins Boxing and Fitness is the largest boxing gym in Canada and the only Boxing B.C. sanctioned boxing club on the North Shore.  With over 20 heavy bags, 6 light bags, 2 boxing rings a full weight room and an indoor running track, Griffins is the place to train!  We go one step further though.  We set up an atmosphere that is welcoming and clean, we facilitate a growth not only in our members training and fitness regime, but also in their confidence and self respect.

At Griffins Boxing and Fitness, we host various member activities and events throughout the year like Amateur Boxing shows every 2 months, Anniversary parties every April, and Member Appreciation BBQ’s for everyone’s convenience and enjoyment.  We also offer Birthday Parties filled with exciting boxing games and private training for that personalized training experience.  We leave people achieving goals, confident in life and having fun

Our History

Griffins began its unique training in 2000 by offering Boxing & Fitness classes at William Griffiths Recreation Centre in North Vancouver. Through word of mouth and the growing popularity of Boxing, it rapidly expanded and in April 2005 Griffins relocated into our present 6000 square foot facility.  Griffins is a name chosen by combining the mascots of two local North Shore High Schools, being Carson Graham’s “Eagle” and the Handsworth’s “Lion”. The Mythical creature, with the head and wings of an Eagle and body and tail of a Lion, denoting strength and fierce determination was aptly chosen to represent Griffins philosophy of training and fitness.  Griffins Boxing and Fitness was built with hard work and dedication of volunteers and family members and continues to thrive with an excellent team ready to make your goals a reality.
