You used to be able to get hip and modern home decor at Bobby Berk's Midtown Miami location, but after it's unfortunate closing we've got good news for you: you'll now be able to get a state-of the-art workout in at The Box, a boutique boxing studio, the first of its kind here in Miami.

Formerly known as SweatBox, The Box is a technologically-driven boutique boxing studio that combines training expertise and sleek aesthetics in its 36-bag work out classes. Each of these heavy bags is equipped with a tracker to measure your "sweat score," a quantitative metric that monitors activity and encourages improvement. The classes are a mix of high-intensity interval training plus body-weight exercises that will have you burning calories and toning muscles day and night.

It's slated to open mid-January, so very soon you'll be able to box with your friends. Or if you'd rather go solo, you can get the best one-on-one personal training session with The Box owner and professional boxer, Alvin Davie. Stay tuned for our coverage of the grand opening, because this place might just might become one of Miami's best boxing gyms.
