Trainer & Instructor
SHERI
For Sheri, Pittsburgh Punch has been her outlet to “snappin’ necks and cashin’ checks!”
A full –time professional and mom of two, Sheri discovered her passion for boxing eight years ago when she realized how unleashing on a heavy bag or the choreography of hitting mitts helped empower her to feel stronger, more confident and reduced her stress on a daily basis. Combining sexy beats with her silly, bad a** attitude,
Sheri invites you to come have fun, punch it out, sweat it off and leave ready to accomplish anything!

SIBE BROERS
Sibe’s fitness mantra: If you’re not having fun, you’re doing it wrong.
For so many people fitness, or working out becomes a chore. Something that weighs on their mind all day. And often circumstances get them off track.
And why wouldn’t it? If it feels like you have to do it instead of looking forward to it, its easier to let things get in the way.
That’s why Sibe’s mantra is what it is! And he uses it inside and outside the boxing gym. When he works with you he works WITH you. That means, team work, its so much easier to workout harder with someone teaching, pushing and inspiring you to create whatever you want.
Sibe is Level 1 certified, specializes in pad work and loves working with people who are new to boxing.
Born and raised in the Netherlands, he moved to Pittsburgh four years ago. Outside the gym you can find him playing hockey, loving his dinosaur Neapolitan Mastiff puppy (Opi), traveling all over the world and having a few beers in the sun with his friends.
