Boxing is Back in Manistee — and It’s for Everyone

The Manistee Boxing Club is back — and its spirit lives on inside Manistee Combat Academy.

For decades, the Boxing Club was led by Coach Richard Guillen, a beloved mentor who dedicated his life to teaching the sport and guiding local youth. Since his passing in 2023, his legacy has remained strong in the hearts of those he trained. Now, that legacy continues — revived by his former students, including Trever Johnson and others, who are bringing the program back with the same mission, passion, and heart.

🧒 Free Youth Program

Boxing isn’t just about throwing punches — it’s about discipline, focus, and growth. Our youth program is completely free and built to give local kids a positive outlet, just like Coach Guillen did for generations.

🥊 Adult Boxing Classes

New to boxing? No problem. Our adult classes are built for all levels. Learn the fundamentals, sharpen your skills, build your cardio, and challenge yourself every round.

❤️ Built by the Community, for the Community

This program is rooted in Manistee. It’s not a franchise — it’s a movement built by locals, continuing the work of a man who made a lasting impact on this town.
