Meet Coach Jeff. He started boxing on his 14th birthday and was instantly hooked after only eight months into the sport. He won his first fight and continued competitively until his early 20s at the age of 19. He met his mentor who showed him the sweet science of the sport, he broke down every intricate detail about body mechanics, and how everything connects. that was a defining moment in his life which led him to begin coaching in 2015 with the hope that he could have the same impact on Others. coaching was just a hobby for Coach Jeff until 2021 at the end of Covid. He had coached and cornered several fights making impressive fighters. He realized this was his calling and passion. It was then that he joined the  Slick Sluggers team. where he was surrounded by a team of coaches with the same passion and love for the sport, Slick Sluggers helped Coach Jeff greatly improve his knowledge of the sport and that was how he knew. It was the place to be. getting that 1 on 1 experience was personally life-changing for me and now I get to do that for others every day my goal as a coach at Slick Sluggers is to make all of my students confident in their ability and skill while making them dangerous and the best version of themselves. 

 Meet Coach Southpaw Steve, a Marine Corps veteran who dove into boxing in 2016 shortly after leaving the military. Throughout his life, he has demonstrated a strong sense of compassion and a genuine desire to make a positive impact on the lives around him- whether it's helping a fellow Marine or guiding and helping boxers through their training.

He first became a fan of the sport as a kid, as he grew older he found himself drawn deeper into the sport especially when it came to watching the top fighters from all over the world. He learned the ropes in gyms across New York City and Long Island, with lots of experience mixing it up with amateur fighters as well as professional fighters.

Coach Southpaw Steve's experience comes from countless hours of grinding it out in training and soaking up every bit of boxing knowledge he can find. He’s not just about the right moves and techniques, he’s learned the hard way of what to do and what not to do. Whether it's figuring out the perfect strategy to counter a tricky southpaw or staying one step ahead of your opponent in the ring, he puts the time and effort to know the sport inside and out.

After training in the gym for years and competing in both boxing and kickboxing, i knew not only do i want to pursue a career in competitive fighting but i want to coach and show people how much this sport can help your life in all aspects. Boxing is not just a sport it's a lifestyle and one of the healthiest lifestyles both physically and mentally. Get started training with me and the slick sluggers team and let us change your life for the better ! 

Hi, I'm Michael Fieselman, a boxing coach at Slick Sluggers Boxing of Huntington. Boxing isn't just a sport to me-it's an art that instills a certain mentality. I first put the gloves on in 2018, and from that moment, I realized boxing was about much more than throwing punches. It's about building mental strength, discipline, and discovering who you truly are when faced with challenges.

Boxing has the power to transform lives. It relieves stress, teaches self-defense, and instills confidence in ways that extend far beyond the gym. l've seen how it can turn frustration into focus, fear into determination, and doubt into strength. That's what drives me as a coach.

At Slick Sluggers, I work with my students to refine their skills, but more importantly, to help them grow as individuals. Whether you're stepping into the ring for the first time or chasing a championship. I'm here to guide you, push you, and celebrate your victories!

Boxing has changed my life, and I'm here to help it change yours too.
