Fantastic experience: Terrific boxing club with an old school vibe but all the latest training gear including virtual reality which is great fun and good for working on combinations and movement. I get the most out of bag and pad work with Robbie and working on our technical skills. I’ve improved a lot in the last year or two since coming here.
