Beginning Boxing: Ages 7-12

Beginning boxing will teach kids the basic fundamentals of boxing along with the mental and emotional character building components that come with learning this discipline.

Kids will learn footwork, hand eye coordination, punching combinations, working on the punching bags, strength training, conditioning, agility, understanding range and using their limbs in space, reaction time, and the art of avoidance through instinct and prediction.

Kids will work to achieve the confidence to play a game of tag in boxing by the end of overall class duration which is simulated sparring without using a closed fist but still utilizes the superior skill and IQ they have learned in all of the classes that is needed to defend themselves and confidently be in the ring as a boxer.

These physical goals and aims for the class are only possible if the kids are working on and towards being more confident, patient, management of emotions as boxing can not be achieved in an angry or upset state of mind or mood, calm, pause, and the ability slow things down mentally and emotionally. Boxing is taught in a class form but it is a solo sport and each individual will progress at their own speed and be able to take on as much or as little as they want and/oe require.

*Please note, a parent/guardian will need to complete a waiver for people participating in this class. The first day you arrive at their site for class, you are able to fill one out.
