EDex - Boxing (Martial Arts)

As part of our brand new Martial Arts EDex package, come along and get involved with our boxing club - absolutely no previous experience required.

The session will be run by at least one of the club's professional coaches and a number of experienced committee members in order to give attendees all the attention they need to get a taste for the sport. This session will be flexible to suit the needs and abilities of the group but a typical session would include the following:

•           Warm up/fitness section circuit-style strength and cardio exercises for 20 mins or so
•           Demonstration & practise of basic punches with committee members providing guidance on technique
•           Paired drills using gloves and pads/bags to set combinations (e.g jab, jab, slip, hook etc.)
•           Optional progression to some tame body sparring in pairs or with committee member
