Franchise owner Bradley Plotkin

Reisterstown resident Bradley Plotkin is merg-ing his passion for boxing - particularly as it relates to generating an intense full-body workout - with his desire to operate his own business and plans to open the inaugural TITLE Boxing Club franchise in the greater Baltimore metropolitan region this fall. The location will be contained within Metro Centre at Owings Mills, a Transit-Oriented De-velopment (TOD) located in the Owings Mills section of Baltimore County, and a project of David S. Brown Enterprises, Ltd. TITLE Boxing Club will be situated on the ground level floor of a four-story, 200,000 square foot Class “A” mixed-use office and retail building on Grand Central Avenue. Salontra Select Suites, an upscale salon and World of Beer are also located within the building.

“After working for several international companies throughout my career and-moving up the professional ladder, I decided to follow my love for boxing as a workout and fitness mechanism and spread my passion for the sport in the local area,” stated Bradley Plotkin. “I understand the tremendously positive impact generated from this exercise concept, having utilized a heavy boxing bag for the past ten years on a regular basis. Learning about and becoming involved as a franchisee of TITLE Boxing Club gave me the vehicle to make my dream become a reality. Growing up locally and attending Franklin High School, I wanted to open in this area and Metro Centre at Owings Mills, a high-energy project that matches the attributes of this franchise.”

Utilizing a workout regime that simulates an actual boxer’s training, the club will offer explosive total body boxing and kickboxing instructor-led classes varying from 30 to 75 minutes. TITLE Boxing Club is best known for its safe and effective, interval-based workout program, which combines bouts of intense cardio, boxing and kickboxing exercises on heavy bags, with short periods of active rest, followed by a core workout with medicine balls. TITLE Boxing Club does not promote actual fighting, but rather encourages all participants at different fitness levels to workout at their own pace. In addition to physical exercise, the trainer-led workouts create an intense emotional and spiritual experience, leaving members with new-found confidence and knowledge of how to box.

“The workout is designed to replicate the way a real boxer trains, and I consider these athletes to be the most physically fit and conditioned in any sport,” he added. “A boxing workout is also a great way to relieve stress because you are constantly hitting something and it can’t hit back. In addition, clinical studies and research have proven the improvements received by people dealing with Parkinson’s disease when performing regular boxing workouts and we plan to offer these sessions soon. Whether you are a rookie or a professional, we have the right class to match your fitness ability, including individual or group environment sessions,” Plotkin added. “We also believe women will be a strong target for this concept, based on the uniqueness and results of the workout. Men, of course, love boxing and they will gravitate here.”

Memberships are available on a yearly contract and month-to-month basis, as well as the purchase of single drop-in, four-pack and eight-pack sessions. TITLE Boxing Club currently operates over 170 locations nationwide and has a location in Rockville, with a facility coming soon to Columbia and Bethesda.

“Boutique fitness centers are proven traffic generators, and this represents an excellent use for Metro Centre,” explained Ken Bernstein of David S. Brown Enterprises.

“Specialized workout and fitness concepts are becoming more popular than the big-box facilities which try to be everything to everyone. Consumers are increasingly seeking to join a specialized exercise concept and we believe in his franchise.”

Metro Centre at Owings Mills is being developed by Owings Mills Transit, LLC and is managed by David S. Brown Enterprises, Ltd. It is designed to support more than 1.2 million square feet of Class “A” office space; 200,000 square feet of complementary retail space; 1700 residential units; educational facilities totaling 120,000 square feet and a full-service hotel offering 225 rooms.

More than 140,000 vehicles pass Metro Centre each day from Interstate 795. In addition, more than 5,000 commuters board the Owings Mills Metro stop each workday and approximately one million people exit the station on an annual basis.
