What Is Keg House Commons?
Keg House Commons opened last week at 928 W 7th Street in St. Paul, inside the historic Schmidt Brewery Keg House. It puts a boxing and fitness gym, a sports lounge, an event center, and a juice and coffee bar under one roof on West 7th.
The anchor tenant is Element Boxing and Fitness, led by former pro boxer Dalton Outlaw. His ownership partners include St. Paul native and former NFL wide receiver Michael Floyd.
Element Boxing Classes, Programs and Amenities
The gym is built around a regulation boxing ring, with an indoor turf sprint track for sprints, sleds, and agility work. You’ll also find Rogue strength racks and platforms, cardio equipment, and a recovery suite with sauna and cold plunge.
Classes cover boxing, strength, kickboxing, and Pilates. Element is an official HYROX training facility, so anyone prepping for a HYROX race has a dedicated place to train in St. Paul.
The specialty programs stand out:
- School of Boxing runs for kids ages 4 to 12 and teens 13 to 17
- Rock Steady Boxing is a non-contact program for people living with Parkinson’s
- Adaptive Boxing serves youth and adults with Down syndrome
Element Boxing Membership Options and Pricing
Here’s how the memberships break down, according to the gym’s website.

Beyond the Gym: Lounge, Events and Juice Bar
The Keg House Lounge is set up for game days, with 12 TVs including a 150-inch video wall and seating for more than 75 people. Watch parties are planned for the Vikings, Timberwolves, Wild, and Twins, though public access to the lounge is still being finalized.
The event center is designed for weddings, corporate events, fight nights, and market days. Life Juices, a St. Paul-based business, runs the juice bar, and a coffee bar is part of the plan.
The appeal here is range. A family could have one kid in School of Boxing, a parent training for HYROX, and the whole group back on Sunday for a Vikings watch party. That kind of all-in-one setup is the bet behind this Twin Cities building.
