Boxing 101.
Boxing fundamentals for teens and adults, 13 and up. Learn the stance, the footwork and the punches the right way, and get into the best shape of your life doing it.
Start here
Boxing 101 is the place to begin. It is built for people who have never boxed, and for people coming back after a long time away. You learn real technique in a gym led by a five-time Vermont Golden Gloves champion, broken down so anyone can pick it up.
Expect to sweat. Technique work turns into pad rounds and bag rounds, and the conditioning comes along for free.
What you work on
- Stance and guardWhere your feet go, where your hands live, and why.
- FootworkMoving in, out and around without crossing your feet or losing balance.
- The punchesJab, cross, hook and uppercut, with the hips and feet that make them land.
- DefenseBlocking, slipping and rolling, so you learn to protect yourself as you punch.
- CombinationsPutting it together on the mitts and the heavy bag, round after round.
Who it is for
Anyone 13 and up. Teens, adults, women and men, total beginners and returning boxers. Loaner gear is available for your first class.
