Boxing Foundations

The class most of the timetable is made of, and the one a first-timer walks into. Stance, guard, footwork, the jab, in that order, with someone watching your feet. It is marked all levels because it genuinely is: the room is built on the assumption that plenty of people in it have never thrown a punch before.

An hour, wraps on first, technique, then rounds at a pace you can hold. The gym describes every class as designed to teach real boxing fundamentals while improving strength, conditioning, coordination and mental toughness. This is that description at its most literal.
