It strives to be a multi-service organization focused on the needs of children and low-income families, providing structured programs to encourage positive physical and emotional growth. When COVID hit the country in early 2020, brothers Jairo and Zico Gonzalez noticed the impact that closed schools and social isolation were having on the children in their community. They realized that boxing, as a form of physical discipline and emotional release, could provide a positive outlet during such a challenging time. As public facilities began to re-open, the brothers pooled their money and rented a small industrial space just outside Old Town Goleta. Using their own funds and voluntary donations, the brothers renovated the space, turning it into a full-blown indoor/outdoor community and training center for both youth and adults. Currently, Five Directions provides boxing instruction to any and all members of the community. As a partner with Generation Red Road, it also provides referrals to talking circles, a free resource designed to improve emotional health. As it grows, the organization is looking to expand into additional areas such as strength and conditioning, yoga, meditation, and jujitsu. The ultimate vision is to provide an accessible, comprehensive approach to physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health that will provide members with the tools they need to build a stronger, healthier community.
