Our Boxing Program demonstrates Olympic Style Boxing & follows USA Boxing Rules, Regulations & Ideals. Boxing is a disciplinary sport. It is an individual sport. Although boxers train with a team, boxers compete as an individual requiring self-discipline in their life. At KO students must learn & follow the class rules as well as practice self-discipline in & outside of the gym. Students will be required to focus their attention on giving their best in their workouts & training. Many times the youth classes will be combined with the KO boxing team training or Intermediate & Advanced class training. Allowing the Intro students to be surrounded by boxers demonstrating proper technique, form, discipline, endurance and perseverance. They will be able to see and follow along to new workouts making it easier for them to learn. K.O. promotes teamwork. To help build teamwork, the use of training mitts by the students will be used as they learn to train one another. As in the K.O. Code of Conduct, students will encourage and help other members of the class and negative comments or gestures are strictly forbidden.
