The Surbiton Boxfit starters guide
First day? Read below to find out more
What should I bring on my first day?
All you need is a pair of boxing gloves.
If you have them, we also recommend bringing:
- Hand wraps
- Pads (optional, not required)
Gloves are required for sessions. If your session is held at Alcheme, spare gloves are available to borrow, but they’re not ideal for long-term use. We strongly recommend investing in your own pair. Adidas and Everlast are great starter brands.
Do I need experience in boxing before I start?
Not at all. No prior boxing experience is needed. You’re welcome to join as a complete beginner with zero knowledge or experience.
Do I need a good level of fitness?
The sessions are fast-paced and can be challenging, but don’t let that put you off. You’re encouraged to work at your own pace, take breaks when needed, and build your fitness over time by attending regularly.
How can I stay up to date?
Surbiton Boxfit runs two WhatsApp groups:
