    For amateurs or boxing fans who would like to get a pro lesson, Trinity Gym in lower Manhattan NYC (near ground zero) offers an hour lesson for $30 .Currently they have Petey "Kid Chocolate" Quillin 20 wins 0 losses ranked 10th IBF Middleweight as a trainer.
    You'll get the basic excercises, skip rope, hand and foot technique, then wrap up the hands, put the gloves on and work the sand and speed bag and step into the ring and spar with a pro (they won't hit you).
    It's a great experience for the novice who's curious.

    Dundees 5th st Gym must have been something back in the day. I love the shots of Ali training there, the dungy run down look of the building, the basic equipment contrasting with the celebrities watching and the most celebrated boxer of all time.

    This is one of my favourite boxing shots of all time, capturing the anonimity of the long lonely hours of training prior to fight time, the isolation of a fighter and the individuality of the sport.

    Your welcome Bro! For thirty dollars it's one of the best buys in NYC. I've done it twice and had a blast. The gym is frequented by both Klitschko's, James Toney, Miguel Cotto and Sylvester Stallone. It's open to the public just walk right in and ask for the $30 introductory lesson. No obligations or contracts just a great way to spend an hour in downtown Manhattan :good
