We are Charlotte and Jaavan Greene, the co-owners of Roots Boxing and Fitness. We started the gym because we are both passionate about martial arts and fitness. Living in the Southwest Atlanta neighborhood, we wanted a convenient, well-maintained gym that provided training for boxing and other martial arts. However, we were disappointed to find that one was not available. 

​

Having trained and sparred at many boxing gyms in NYC and Philly, Charlotte knows personally the immense fun, physical and mental health benefits, confidence and discipline that the sport brings. While she loved authentic boxing training, she would have preferred a cleaner gym with a female bathroom, hot showers, better equipment, and a more inclusive environment.

 

That's why we founded Roots Boxing & Fitness Gym, a gym that serves our community, combines old school knowledge with new school facilities, in an inclusive and empowering space. Come work out with us!
