My name is Carmela Leone! I graduated from the University of Michigan in 2018 with a BSN degree. I am currently working as an emergency nurse at Mott Children’s Hospital. I was a cheerleader my entire life and I played a variety of other sports including tennis, softball, and basketball. Last summer I got certified as a personal trainer through the National Academy of Sports Medicine.
My personal mantra:
"Your why has to be greater than that knockdown"
My training style is:
energetic
My why:
Working out has always been a huge part of my life, especially growing up. Between sports, runs with my dad, and working out at the gym with my two brothers and sister, it is something that has made my family very close. I got into boxing a few years ago with my brothers when we started going to my cousin's boxing gym. I loved how motivating the environment was and how hard the trainers pushed us to become better. I became a trainer to be that person for others, to help people reach their goals and prove they can push themselves further than they ever expected.
What gives me my fighting spirit:
My family is my number one motivation. We are a little team, always lifting each other up to become strong not only physically but mentally. They have supported me and taught me to set the bar high and work hard to achieve my goals.

He gets his fighting spirit and his passion for fitness from pushing through past physical injuries and trying to constantly improve himself.

I have been involved in multiple sports and exercise programs throughout my life. I was a competitive swimmer in high school – swam butterfly. I was a Senior National Ski Patroller for years. I ran 10K’s and half marathons all summer long for decades. I belonged to gyms and lifted weights. I competed in the Michigan Equestrian Hunter / Jumper circuit for years piloting a thoroughbred horse over four to five-foot fences. I even taught high-impact aerobics at Vic Tanney’s. All these efforts resulted in...It doesn’t matter if you haven’t worked out in a while or have never boxed before, you can finish the workout feeling great! You’ll see that everyone goes at their own pace, but believe us that once you’re here, you’ll be inspired to give it your very best!
No—not ever! Each person in class has their own heavy bag to workout on, plus their own space to move around the bag. Trust us, you won’t even realize anyone else is in the class because you’ll be so focused on the workout! And, rest easy, we never allow sparring or fighting at TITLE Boxing Club.
Boxing is a great workout, perhaps one of the most challenging of all sports, and we want to bring you the intensity of the training, minus the impact. We’ll teach you how to roll with the punches by pushing you further than you thought possible.
You bet! All of our classes are taught by instructors who will show you the ropes from the beginning. We’ll help you wrap your hands and walk you through the basic fundamentals. Everyone in class is at a different level, so take a deep breath and go at your own pace!
We do not offer childcare services at TITLE Boxing Club. However, children over the age of eight are welcome to work out with you here and join as a member! Ask us about our Family Membership options.
Hand wraps are essential for your protection and mandatory for class. You can bring your own or buy them here. We’ll have gloves for you to borrow your first time, and you might want to bring a bottle of water and towel! Plan on arriving 20 minutes early so we can get you settled and wrap your hands.
For a beginner, the most important thing is to learn the proper form. The good news is that we’ll teach you! As you progress, you’ll be able to throw several variations of punches from different positions and develop your own punching technique to fit your style. People are usually surprised at how much they love hitting the heavy bag!
Of course you can take classes before purchasing a membership. We have drop-in rates for single classes, three or six classes. These are great for people who travel often or want to try us out. You can choose our best value option and commit to a membership any time.
