About

Thistletown Boxing Club began a few years ago when 4 people decided that Kelowna needed a smaller, more personal boxing gym. Ryan, Kirby and Peggy approached the future coach, Graham McIntosh, with a proposition. Together they found a small but suitable location downtown on Ellis St. Determined to have a great boxing gym, everyone chipped in and completely renovated the entire building. It may not have been pretty, but it was a gym and it had everything necessary. Over the years Thistletown has produced a number of fighters, 3 provincial champions and others just doing it for fun.

The philosophy at Thietletown boxing club is simple. We are a family. Whether you want to become a competitive fighter, learn to box or just get into shape, Thistletown is a welcoming environment with qualified staff.

Beginning in November Thistletown boxing club found a new location! Now located at 105-1054 Ellis st, it is only a few blocks from the old location. This space is a little fancier than the old gym but has the same great atmosphere.
