Amberle Zuerlein
Owner and Lead Boxing Coach
@amberlekaye
Amberle grew up in a small town of less than 500 people in Nebraska where she quickly outgrew her roots and left to be a retail buyer for a department store after getting her B.A. in Business and Minor in Fashion Merchandising.
The Denver outdoors called her in 2011, and she’s been hooked ever since.
An avid snowboarder, trail runner, lifter, boxer and kickboxer with a new-found love for XTP and ‘Colorado beach days.’ After leaving her Fortune 100 career in tech and winning her first amateur boxing match in June, she knew the sport needed to be made more approachable for both men and women and started coaching to transform mindsets and physical states in an hour class. Four years Muay Thai practice, USA Boxing Certified Coach and Instructor ranked 1-0, she brings both the expertise and fun to each and every class.
