High quality training program

by Max 11

"You attend classes at KickandBox because of their skilled instructors. They give you the individual attention necessary for adapting the training to your level, whereever that level is. And from there you develop and grow.

That is what I find professional. That is why I enjoyed every class at KickandBox and that is why I warmly recommend KickandBox."

Boxing training at its best!

by mrchrippa

For several years I've wanted to be proficient in boxing and tried several trainers and classes in California, New York and London. I guess you could say they gave me enough confidence to throw a punch without looking like a complete novice, but I never felt I really "understood" the mechanics of boxing.

Then a friend referred me to "KickandBox" and things changed. Leon and Jamie made me aware of rhythm, bobbing and weaving, footwork and how to truly visualize my opponent as I shadow boxed and hit the bag. Furthermore, they got me "onto my toes", throwing from my hips as opposed to from the top half of my body "sluggerstyle". Coming from a grappling background, breaking the habit of channeling my fighting force "downwards" and often "muscling it" seemed impossible for my previous trainers.

"KickandBox" introduced me to a different perspective. My instructors there knew from start how to transfer my previous martial arts experience into more efficient boxing technique. For example...For years I'd tried to throw a hook and spent several costly lessons being shown how, but I just never got it. Jamie simply told me to do a hip throw on him, which I did. He then demonstrated the hook again...the mechanics were the same. I got it! Similar demonstrations followed for other moves and in a relatively short period I developed an awareness of boxing as well as a respect for why it is called "the Sweet Science".

I now know how to shadowbox and spar without "pretending". Thankyou Jamie and Leon for showing me the way to a higher level of confidence and focus.

I promise to myself became a promise to my trainers

by biggerbetter

I promised to write a couple of lines here since the guys at kickandbox know how much I love this program. I was sceptical from the start since I've never had a great interesting in learning how to beat people up. But as I discovered the ”art” of ”martial arts” - I now see martial arts from a whole new angle. The best workout. Period. Forget weights, forget running. Once you try this, you won't stop. Ever.

Positively surprised!

by boxer001

I was positively surprised when I noticed how diverse these trainers could be, depending on the level of skill between different students. I got better a little quicker than some of the others, and our coach could still help my buddies as well as me, regardless. We all got a lot out of it, every time.
