So, what is White Collar Boxing?
Well during the last few years White Collar Boxing has become extremely popular as an alternative to top level amateur and professional Boxing competition whilst offering people the opportunity to train and achieve the excellent fitness benefits enjoyed by boxers. For those interested it is the opportunity for people who would never usually think of or get the chance to compete. Because of family or work commitments, or life restrictions in general, most of us can only dream of what might have been. White Collar Boxing has brought these opportunities to people who may wish to compete and the TKO Academy can provide these opportunities for those who may wish to pursue competition on professionally organised events, however as stated this is purely optional and only available when participants have reached a suitable level.
The LONSDALE White Collar Boxing classes that we offer here at the TKO Academy are a specially designed program offering all the many fitness benefits of Boxing with the classes suited for all levels. Any sparring is strictly optional and only open to members when a suitable level of ability has been achieved and whilst wearing full protective equipment.
Training consists of:
- A basic warm up routine including skipping & shadow Boxing
- Exercises
- Stretching & Flexibility
- Pad work & conditioning
- Bag work
- Technical tuition
- One on One controlled application
Training takes place at the TKO Academy for classes of 1 hours duration, details of times etc will be given on your FREE taster class which you can book by contacting the TKO Academy of your choice.
Please note training is carried out on our fully matted training area therefore this should be done barefoot, however LONSDALE Boxing boots will be allowed to be worn and are available from the TKO Academy. See the instructor for details.
