Introduction
As the former welterweight champion of the US Air Force and a world renowned tap dancer, Joe Orrach teaches boxing to professionals and amateurs. "I emphasize footwork and movement with all my students, from beginners to professionals. I believe if one has a great foundation, and footwork is the base, the rest will follow. When one's weight is distributed correctly, one can move in any direction to avoid, counter, feign or improvise. I try to teach not only great boxing skills, but also sustainable life skills; one skill set benefits the other. I believe we all have a story to tell, and the confidence boxing instills in one allows for that story to be told. My classes build confidence and an awareness of others. They help one to develop stamina (As Shakespeare wrote, "Fatigue makes cowards of us all."). Through these life building-blocks, we learn to live with others with respect. We offer personalized training for all levels."

I started working out with Joe in a gym at the University of Southern California. He was apart of the MFA program there and I heard he was some boxer guy. Little did I know that our work outs would not only challenge my athleticism (when I first started I could only jump rope for 30 seconds straight and I considered myself in great shape. Now I can jump for 30 minutes) but he also challenged me spiritually. Joe approaches boxing with a philosophy that can aid you in your every day life. Through our training he's helped me build a higher level of self value and confidence, not only as an artist but as a man. He's truly a gem to work with and I highly recommend you support his work. Plus it's really nice to hit something. You'll do plenty of that and feel really good. It's a great sweat and you don't really think about how hard you're working when working out.

Joe is an excellent teacher/training. I felt very comfortable working with him. He knows a great deal about boxing and the body. He was never impatient with me but he did push me when I needed to be pushed and I respect him for that. I hate that I haven't be able to work out with him more. Over just a few shorts weeks of boxing, my muscles were leaner, my stamina increased and I was just a happier person. If you have the opportunity to work with Joe, even if its just once, you should do it. Without a doubt, he is one of the best.
