What’s Good Family! I AM Ahmad Mickens! I am an ACE & NASM Certified Personal Trainer, Behavior Change Specialist, Fitness Nutrition Specialist, Neuromuscular Stretching Specialist, PIA Pilates Certified Instructor, RYT-200 Certified Yoga Instructor, AIBA International Boxing Coach, and USA Boxing Certified Boxing Coach. I am a former accomplished Amateur and Professional Boxer, a girl dad to Amaya Nia, and the father of two boys, AJ and Amir.
I am the founder of the RF Youth Boxing Program, a nonprofit youth initiative that gives traditionally underserved youth a safe space to spend their after-school and summer time. I am also the owner of Revolution Training, an all-inclusive fitness facility specializing in Boxing and Personal Training. I am a motivator! I specialize in helping people adopt the proper mindset needed to accomplish goals they never thought were possible. Whether speaking to crowds of thousands or individual sessions, I am committed to supporting you!
My relationship with Revolution Training began with the RF Youth Program when I was thirteen years old. I have been boxing for six years and have competed for four years. In these years I have had the opportunity to compete in several matches and began coaching youth program members as part of the youth mentoring program. I rely on my experience to teach my classes and clients about boxing. I am dedicated to keeping my sessions fun and skillful.
I have over thirty years of experience in the Boxing industry, with five Western New England Golden Glove titles to my name. I have also worked in Westover Job Corp as the Leisure Time Manager training kids of age 14-18. I teach and run our RF Youth Boxing Program and RF Youth summer camp. I graduated from Springfield College with a BA in Sports Medicine and am the head trainer at K2 Advisors in Stamford.
