With more than 25 years experience as a boxing and strength & conditioning coach, Emile will hold you accountable to your targets and goals. While competing in triple jump at the 1996 Olympic Trials, the all-round athlete suffered an injury that made him refocus his energies to boxing. After a brief stint as an amateur, followed by a couple professional bouts, Emile turned his attention to training fighters through his business, The Boxing Loft.
At the downtown gym, Coach Emile built Golden Gloves champions, an Ontario Provincial champion, and was the strength and conditioning coach to former World Champion and professional fighter Natasha "The Nightmare" Spence. Coach Emile has done it all while employing a soft-spoken and compassionate attitude towards all his clients.

Working out at the boxing loft has been a fantastic experience. As someone who played a ton of sports growing up and in university, this was the perfect place to get in a hard and challenging workout that was perfectly designed for me. The workouts themselves are great, and alongside that picking up the sport of boxing has been a fantastic experience for me to learn. I'd recommend going to the Boxing Loft to anyone, who looking to get into shape, challenge themselves, and grow their physical ability.

Coach E has completely transformed the way I approach training. He preaches movement quality, form, and really nailing the basics as the foundation for effective strength and boxing training. Always generous with his time and his extensive knowledge, Coach E creates workouts that are custom to my goals as a boxer, and is a great motivator. His gym has a community feel and is the perfect space for small group training. I can't imagine learning the sweet science of boxing anywhere else, as Coach E really knows what's up! I'm grateful to call him coach and friend!

Although it's been many years since I've trained here, CoachE has left an everlasting impression on my life! I went here for many years in my early twenties. The skills that i've learned I still have with me today. An amazing place to learn to box and get an incredible workout in. Great atmosphere and great people!

I've been a Client of CoachE for under a year. I'd been struggling to get into shape for a few years, but after 8 months at The Boxing Loft, I'm more fit than I've ever been! CoachE not only trained me according to my needs and capabilities, but also improved by balance, power, and endurance - aspects of fitness I had paid no attention to.
It's real boxing and real boxing training - I wasn't really into boxing but it turned out to be a lot of fun and its fitness benefits extend far beyond the ring.
In The Boxing Loft, CoachE has created a casual atmosphere, but one in which you feel motivated

I've been training at The Boxing Loft for almost a year and I can see a marked difference in my strength and level of fitness.
Coach Emile will work with your specific requirements and fitness goals to help you achieve them.
Through his boxing training, I have seen a massive improvement in my core strength, balance, flexibility and stamina. This helps me greatly in my work as a photographer where I have to be on my feet for hours on end and sometimes in uncomfortable positions that hurt my back.
With his training I have been able to engage my core and take the pressure off my back.

Like most of us, I've had several gym memberships and tried a lot of fitness fads but nothing ever clicked for me until I joined The Boxing Loft more than five years ago. In that time, there has been a marked improvement in my fitness level and physique, but more than that I look forward to every training session - I'd certainly never said that before!
CoachE tailors every workout to your personal needs and goals, and pushes you to excel while keeping routines fresh. He has created a good vibe in The Boxing Loft, while still instilling discipline. I encourage anyone, of any fitness level, to try
