Today, we asked our coaches how does boxing make you feel? It really opened up the discussion and made us think of our reason for why we do what we do. So we are asking you the same question, how does boxing make you feel?

A questions we often get asked is, ‘what size gloves would you recommend?’ So here is some advice that might help.

To choose a boxing glove size, consider your body weight for protection and your hand circumference for a proper fit. A general guideline is:
Lightweights (under 125 lbs): 10-12 oz gloves
Middleweights (125-185 lbs): 14-16 oz gloves
Heavyweights (over 185 lbs): 16-18 oz gloves

Hand circumference: Measure around the widest part of your hand (below the knuckles) to ensure the best fit. Hand size by circumference
Small: 6”–7.5”
Medium: 7.5”–8.5”
Large: 8.5”–9.5”
Extra-large: 9.5”+

It also depends on what you are planning on using your gloves for:
Bag and pad work 10-12 oz
Sparring (general) 14-16 oz
Sparring (experienced boxers) 10-12 oz
Youth 6-10 oz

When it comes to brands, you can get a range of gloves in different price brackets. Always feel free to speak to us about gloves.

Great to see our lads from our secondary session taking care of their hands. Boxers wrap their hands to protect the fragile bones and joints in their hands and wrists from the high impact of punches. Hand wraps provide crucial support, stability, and extra padding to prevent injuries like fractures and sprains during training. From being shown the first few times to now doing this habitually, we love to see it! If you ever want help with wrapping your hands, please ask one of our coaches to help and show you.

Mindfulness Mondays! Today, is talking all things mindset. Carole Dweck, an American psychologist, developed the idea of having two mindsets; a fixed and a growth. A fixed mindset is the belief that abilities, intelligence, and talent are innate and unchangeable, whereas a growth mindset is the belief that these qualities can be developed through dedication, effort, and learning. People with a fixed mindset tend to avoid challenges and fear failure, while those with a growth mindset embrace challenges, see effort as a path to mastery, and view setbacks as opportunities for improvement. A growth mindset can be developed by trying different ways to learn and to accept that these may be different to others around you. Seeing failure as an opportunity to receive feedback and learn. Valuing the process of learning over the end result. Celebrating growth and milestones with others.

Big shoutout to our 8am crew this morning. Our first class training at studios. Was such an incredible session with high energy (even for an early start). This class is aimed at just women and truly is such a safe space.

We are constantly inspired by the passion and enthusiasm of this group of teens, who show up every week with a desire to learn, grow, and develop. It makes for a really fun and engaging class. Boxing teaches each individual so many things that can be applied to every day life: discipline, concentration, awareness and so much more!
