ABOUT THE CLASS

At 12ROUNDS Youth Boxing kids and teenagers learn to box step by step, in a way that fits their age. No experience needed: we start with the basics and build from there.

The classes combine boxing technique with active, playful drills. They learn to move, punch, defend and work together, while building conditioning, coordination and focus.

We train in small, fixed age groups. That gives every child personal attention, in a familiar setting where they can grow at their own pace.

Why boxing

WHAT BOXING GIVES KIDS

Boxing is far more than punching. Kids work on their body, their focus and their confidence all at once.

Confidence

Learning new technique and noticing you keep getting better.

Focus and discipline

Boxing asks for attention, listening, practice and sticking with it.

Fit and strong

Working on conditioning, strength and coordination through play.

Fun and training together

Doing sport together in a fixed group where everyone joins in at their own level.

Safety

IN GOOD HANDS

Safety comes first in every class. That is why we train in small groups and our coaches build the drills up step by step.

  • Experienced coaches who adapt the drills to age and level
  • Maximum 10 kids per class, so every child stays in view
  • The 8-12 group trains on the bag and on the pads, with no contact between them
  • Gloves and wraps are free to borrow, so the gear always fits properly
  • A warm-up and a cool-down are part of every class
  • Parents are welcome to watch, for as long as they like
