El Barrio - Boxing & Fitness
How we captured the raw energy of the ‘hood’ to build a heavyweight digital brand.
The Bottleneck
El Barrio Boxing isn’t just a gym; it’s a community. But their digital presence was silent. They had the fighters, the energy, and the culture, but their website looked like a generic fitness brochure.
They needed a digital identity that matched the sweat and grit of the gym floor. They didn’t just need more members; they needed a way to showcase the ‘El Barrio ‘hood Spirit’ to the digital world and turn casual visitors into committed fighters.”
The Protocol
We ditched the sterile, corporate gym aesthetic. We built a ‘dark mode’ digital experience that mirrors the atmosphere of a fight night.
Cinematic Video Integration: We produced a high-octane ‘Hype Reel’ to accompany the website, instantly immersing visitors in the gym’s energy.
Member-First Architecture: We streamlined the timetable and membership flows, making it frictionless for new recruits to sign up for their first ‘BoxFit’ or ‘Fighters Class.’
Brand Identity: We sharpened the ‘Day of the Dead’ skull branding, ensuring it felt iconic across both digital screens and physical merchandise.”
A Heavyweight Impact
The new platform didn’t just look good; it performed. By capturing the authentic ‘vibe’ of the gym through video and bold design, we saw an immediate shift in the quality of leads.
Increased Day Pass Sign-ups: The new ‘Get a Free Pass’ funnel converts traffic into footfall.
Brand Authority: The site now serves as the central hub for their fight nights and community events, proving that El Barrio is the undisputed champion of the Seventeen Mile Rocks scene.
See The Energy
We don’t just build websites; we capture culture. This highlight reel was produced by Big Bao to showcase the raw energy of an El Barrio Fight Night.
