If you are a novice fighter this is the only place in St louis that I know of. If you are a real fighter this is the only place in St. Louis too. Overall, Finney's is a very good gym--but is not the only good gym in the country. The coach seems respectable and he seems to know how to box/kickbox. There are some problems. There were many good fighters, but many were still novice fighters thinking they were advanced. Further, many of the fighters gave the impression that Finney's is the only place someone could possibly learn how to fight. This is just ignorant Also, when someone is a new fighter the other fighters should let him/her be for a while. Also, the gym is very small, especially when there is over ten fighters in the gym. Again, Finney's is an overall good gym that needs some improvements.
Pros: Good coach, Good hours, Serious fighting
Cons: Pushy fighters, Small gym, Expensive
