Antonio Lopez

Since I was 18 years old., Boxing came into my life in the mist of my Collegiate Football career. I was looking for an opportunity to gain knowledge in another skillset and also build my confidence not only as a player but a person as well. Since then, I’ve stuck to boxing and began training clients who range from your average person to professional athletes in the NBA & NFL. To give back all the information I’ve learned in fitness over time is my ultimate goal with any client.

Jorge Esparza 

Born and raised in Houston, TX I moved to San Antonio to grow closer to my ethnic roots while also graduating from UTSA with a Bachelor’s in Business Marketing. Before meeting the Leija family I had spent my time perfecting my craft for the love I had for the game of basketball while playing and coaching over the last decade through hard work, passion, and an insane attention to detail. My goal is to perfect my own skills but to master what I like to describe as the ultimate art of self expression and to help others learn more about themselves through this beautiful journey of boxing.
