“Gloves Boxing Gym is Wellington's top destination for individuals of all shapes, sizes, and abilities who are looking for a top-notch boxing experience. Whether you are a seasoned athlete or a beginner looking to get fit and stay toned, Gloves Boxing Gym offers a friendly and low-cost way to achieve your fitness goals.
At Gloves Boxing Gym, we understand the importance of starting off on the right foot, which is why we offer free introductory sessions every Sunday at 2pm. These sessions serve as an orientation to the gym, our classes, and our membership process. Additionally, participants will receive instruction on the basics of boxing and preparation for their first class. To ensure your safety and the safety of others in the class, we strongly recommend attending one of these sessions before trying a full class, especially if you have never boxed before.
Our classes are designed to assume a level of boxing knowledge and ability, so it is important to be comfortable with the way we work. Even if you have experience in boxing, our introductory class can still be helpful in familiarising yourself with our unique approach and ensuring your enjoyment throughout your time at the gym.
Gloves Boxing Gym offers a variety of classes to cater to different preferences and fitness goals. The Introductory Class focuses on teaching the basic four punches, stance, and hitting and holding bags and pads. This class is highly recommended before taking on other classes and is a great way to get started.
For those looking to get fit while having fun, our Fit Class is the perfect choice. This class involves working on simple combinations on the bags and incorporates additional conditioning exercises to give you a challenging and enjoyable workout. It is suitable for both beginners and experienced boxers.
If you're more focused on improving your fitness level, our Fighting Fit class is an excellent option. This class is designed to challenge your body and brain with various boxing drills while still maintaining a strong fitness focus.
For individuals looking to enhance their skills and prepare for sparring, we offer Sparring and Sparring Drills classes. These classes are suitable for individuals who are looking to take their boxing to the next level and are willing to engage in full contact. Mouthguards are essential, and sparring drills are controlled for safety purposes.
If you encounter any specific issues or challenges with your boxing technique, our Problem Solver class is designed to address those concerns. This class provides a dedicated half-hour session to work on any issues that have arisen during your training.
In addition to our regular classes, Gloves Boxing Gym also offers an extra class called Counterpunch. This class is specifically developed for individuals with Parkinson's disease but is also suitable for older individuals looking for an alternative, fun way to improve muscle strength, coordination, and overall fitness. Counterpunch classes are not included in the regular timetable and are subject to an additional charge.
