High confidence · Best fit for Hardcore Learner

In-person boxing and fitness classes are serious conditioning sessions with runs, sparring, and high intensity; many call him a great coach if you want to get hit and get fit, while others say he barely instructs and is harsh.

Main concern

Mandatory participation, little formal coaching, water restrictions in workouts, and occasional hostile or biased remarks.

What students said

“He is more of a coach than a "professor." This is not "boxing workout" where you dance to the music; it's serious conditioning/training.”
PACT330

“Not allowing students to drink water during 1+ hour hard workout is really against modern sports science.”
PACT330

“Pryor as a coach is absolutely horrible. He doesn't actually coach, he leaves it up to the students in the class to do it for him.”
