Grind Hard Fitness & Boxing was born from the purest love for the sport. It started in a garage gym in Cincinnati, Ohio, and grew into a modest but highly functional basement gym in Columbia, South Carolina. We have always prioritized hard work over hype, and community over everything.
Our space has welcomed people from every walk of life imaginable. We’ve trained energetic 9-year-olds finding their focus, expectant mothers staying strong, grandparents proving age is just a number, and even congenital heart disease patients reclaiming their health. We are proud of our roots and the diverse family we've built one punch at a time.
Our mission is twofold: to teach the art and discipline of "the sweet science" with technical precision, and to build a strong, supportive community around the grind.
Whether you want to get active, test your limits with a new workout, or have dreams of a pro career, you have a place here. Everyone is treated with respect and is expected to work as hard as they can—and have fun doing it.
Our gym is a direct reflection of our founder's journey and passion. His personal fight for health and recovery is the driving force behind his dedication to every member's success. This lived experience has created a place built on empathy, resilience, and the belief that everyone has a fighter inside them.
