Since 2017 we have been proudly offering free boxing and wellbeing workshops in the Subiaco area. Transitions in life can be hard, but with the right community and a constant safe space to explore movement and wellbeing we can build the resilience and self efficacy to deal with life’s challenges - and have fun while we do it!
Our classes are community driven. We aren’t a gym, we aren’t elite athletes. We want to make movement accessible and fun for people who may not feel comfortable in a typical gym environment.

AND WELLNESS
NON-COMBAT BOXING
THAT PACKS A PUNCH
Using the non-combat, technical skills of boxing, we work with participants to increase their strength, fitness and agility. This leads to a greater physical self-awareness, mindfulness and comfort within themselves.
An independent survey found that the majority of our participants reported:
-
Significant improvements in their balance and posture
-
Increased sense of well-being,
-
Improved emotional regulation and ability to relax. T
-
Being more confident to speak out in mixed gender or mixed age groups,
-
Feeling better about themselves
-
Increased confidence to handle conflict
-
Feeling better informed on where to access advice on health and safety issues.
WORKSHOPS
A culturally sensitive youth program focused on creating internal resilience factors and increased confidence.
Using a strengths based approach, to increase protective factors, and willingness to engage with protective supports and networks. Creating healthy mental and physical behaviours and habits.
