Gloveworx Announces Grand Opening of Westfield Century City Boxing Studio, Upcoming Location at Westfield World Trade Center

LOS ANGELES, March 8, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Gloveworx, the premier state-of-the-art boxing studio and athletic performance facility, today announced the grand opening of its second studio location at Westfield Century City. The studio will open on Saturday, March 10th. Additionally, Gloveworx is proud to announce its third location ? and first New York City studio ? at Westfield World Trade Center, slated to open in late 2018.

The new 3,200 sq. ft. Gloveworx Century City studio offers a wide array of training sessions incorporating boxing, strength and conditioning training, weightlifting, and much more. In addition to its full-size competition ring for boxing workouts and a customized turf area for functional strength, the facility features heavy bags, speed bags, VersaClimbers, Woodway treadmills, Olympic lifting racks and platforms, and a full complement of resistance training equipment. The studio also offers their own Gloveworx branded gear including boxing gloves, apparel and accessories.

Additionally, Gloveworx today announced the launch of a data-driven, fully integrated digital wellness and performance platform available at both its new Westfield Century City and flagship Santa Monica studio locations. Gloveworx partnered with EDGE10, a leading provider of athlete management software, to create its new ALPHA platform. Thanks to wearable technology, ALPHA will track a range of data, from the foods contenders eat to their workout patterns, and use advanced analytics to help them make more informed choices in their daily lives. Previously only available to elite, professional athletes, this collaboration marks the first time that this technology will be available to contenders of all levels.

"Gloveworx is committed to making the science of health, wellness and fitness accessible to more people than ever, regardless of their previous experience or ability," said Leyon Azubuike, founder of Gloveworx. "The opening of our new, state-of-the-art boxing studio at Westfield Century City, expansion to Westfield World Trade Center in New York and the launch of our innovative ALPHA wellness and performance platform are three important milestones toward achieving that goal. We are excited to inspire and empower a new community of contenders to become even more unstoppable."

Azubuike, a former US Nationals heavyweight competitor, opened Gloveworx' Santa Monica flagship location in 2015 to create a culture where both athletes and coaches from diverse backgrounds can enjoy training with a community of like-minded individuals. Gloveworx takes pride in combining boxing training with strength and conditioning in a vibrant team environment. Coaches are all current or former elite competitors across multiple disciplines offering contenders an assortment of impressive athletic resumes and dynamic coaching styles. Gloveworx offerings range from high-energy group circuit training to private one-on-one sessions. Regardless of session size, Gloveworx coaches personalize their training based on the needs of each individual, offering genuine care and attention to motivate contenders to reach their goals.

"At Westfield, we are totally committed to building on the momentum of today's powerful health and wellness movement as we introduce new products and services tailored to the active lifestyles our guests are living," said David Ruddick, Westfield Executive Vice President, Leasing. "We are so proud to welcome Gloveworx to the Westfield portfolio ? starting in Los Angeles ? where Gloveworx was created and founded.  The authenticity and credibility of Leyon and his team of dynamic professionals completely resonate in the L.A. community ? just as they undoubtedly will in New York City ? when Westfield World Trade Center becomes the home of the first East Coast Gloveworx later this year."

Gloveworx will host a public Grand Opening event on Saturday, March 10th from 2pm ? 4pm. During the event, guests can enjoy a complimentary mini boxing session, delicious bites, beverages and cocktails, live music, tour the new studio, and meet Gloveworx founder Leyon Azubuike.
