Kids Boxing at Geelong Boxing Club

Building Confidence and Connection

At Geelong Boxing Club, we understand that boxing is an individual sport that allows kids to train at their own pace and intensity. Each child has the opportunity to shine without the pressure of competing against others’ skill levels. We start with the basics, teaching proper punches, footwork, and physical conditioning, ensuring a solid foundation for their future growth.

To support independence, confidence, and full engagement, we ask parents and caregivers to wait outside the gym during sessions. This helps kids focus, build self reliance, and develop a sense of ownership over their training. If a child demonstrates in any way that they need their caregiver’s support, we will immediately bring you in to ensure they feel safe and comfortable.

In today’s world, where screens often replace real connections, our Kids Boxing Program goes beyond physical training. We’re committed to restoring connection through real-time, embodied experiences that foster genuine interactions among peers.

Padwork: Building Trust and Presence

During padwork, kids communicate nonverbally, tuning into each other’s movements and responding in sync. This active form of listening and trust-building helps them develop essential relational skills. In our gym, there’s no hiding behind screens—the immediacy of these interactions brings a level of presence that is invaluable.

The Ritual of Touching Gloves: A Moment of Connection

Simple rituals, like touching gloves between sets, serve a deeper purpose. It’s more than boxing etiquette; it’s a moment of eye contact and mutual respect, reminding children of the importance of real human connection. In an increasingly virtual world, these small gestures create warmth and camaraderie.

Real-Time Connection, In-Person, and In Community

By engaging in these real-time interactions, kids reconnect with essential skills that the digital age has taken from them, trust, empathy, and emotional presence. Our Kids Boxing Program is not just about physical strength; it’s a restorative practice that teaches children how to engage meaningfully with their peers and the world around them.

The impact we see among our young members is profound.

They build camaraderie, confidence, and a sense of belonging in an era where disconnection is becoming the norm.

Give your child the gift of confidence, fitness, and self-leadership skills. Enroll them in our Kids Boxing Program today and watch them transform into skilled, empowered individuals!

Designed for children aged 5 to 12, our program offers a unique blend of fitness, discipline, and self-leadership, helping your child not only get physically fit but also strengthen their sense of self.

The Power of Boxing for Children

Boxing serves as a powerful vehicle for kids to cultivate essential self-regulation skills while providing a constructive outlet for releasing pent-up energy and stress. The physical demands of boxing require discipline and control, helping young individuals learn to regulate their actions and emotions. Our structured training offers a framework for channeling excess energy into purposeful and controlled movements, promoting both physical fitness and emotional well-being.

Through boxing, children gain valuable tools for emotional regulation, fostering resilience and equipping them to handle the challenges of growing up.

What to Expect in Our Kids Boxing Sessions

Our Kids Boxing sessions focus on building a strong foundation in boxing skills and techniques. Participants will learn the fundamentals, including stance, guard, movement, and essential punches like the jab, cross, and hook. This program aims to increase their strength, improve endurance, and enhance overall fitness.

No Contact, All Fun!

Rest assured, there is NO CONTACT in our kids boxing sessions. We prioritise a safe and enjoyable environment where children can thrive.

A Fun and Engaging Experience

Our classes are anything but ordinary! Your child will participate in dynamic activities such as bodyweight movements, shadow boxing, bag work, partner drills, and pad work with coaches. The heavy bags play a central role, helping kids develop their punching power and precision, all within a safe and fun-focused atmosphere.

Expert Coaching and Support

Each of our kids sessions is designed and delivered by Geelong Boxing Club Owners Lena & Steve Moxon (with the assistance of their 6 year old son, Tyson)
