Boxing is an intensity sport in which you use a lot of energy in a short time. During competitions, a round lasts only 2 or 3 minutes. Hand, foot and eye coordination are important, but you are also mentally busy making split-second decisions. Keep watching is important so you can read your opponent and predict what he/she/they are going to do. In an official match, boxers try to score points by hitting each other on the right hit areas. This requires 3 judges who use the '10-points must system' to decide who will be the winner of the match.
During this boxing training you will work completely individually on improving condition, flexibility, stamina and increasing your strength. You will complete an intensive program in your own part of the room under the guidance of the boxing trainer. In addition, you will use the available punching bags to improve your punching techniques and -combinations.
