Sparring and other more advanced drills are optional and up to the discretion of the student. (Unlike our MMA program, we do not train boxers for professional boxing fights)

Required gear includes shorts, a t-shirt, mouth guard, hand wraps, gloves, jump rope and athletic supporter. Optional gear includes boxing shoes and headgear.

Definition: Boxing is a combat sport in which two participants of similar weight fight each other with their fists. Boxing today is conducted in a regulated way, typically in a series of one to three-minute intervals called rounds. Victory is achieved if the opponent is knocked down and unable to get up before the referee counts to ten seconds (a knockout, or KO) or if the opponent is deemed too injured to continue (a technical knockout, or TKO). If there is no stoppage of the fight before an agreed number of rounds, a winner is determined either by the referee's decision or by judges' scorecards.
