Just 2.7 miles away from Reading’s town center, MK Boxing has a superior 7,500 square foot facility boasting over 30 boxing bags, speedbags, conditioning mats, a professional boxing ring, locker rooms, cardio machines, and weight training equipment.
Many children are getting into the sport of boxing. Training in boxing will not only improve the body, it will improve the mind. The sport of boxing can and will be safe if done properly. Please read below for specific goals and benefits of this class.
Returning students will be introduced to MMA Striking. Mixed Martial Arts Striking and Conditioning Fundamentals involve the use of hands, elbows, knees, legs and foot strikes. This will involve the use of the heavy bags, kicking shields, and focus mitt training. There is a heavy emphasis on conditioning such as running, burpees, pushups, abs, and other cross conditioning methods. The kids will learn how to slip and avoid punches. The focus on technique, form, conditioning, power, speed, timing, coordination and balance will be emphasized. All contact will be practiced using protective shields, pads, focus mitts and heavy bags.
Location: MK Boxing and Fitness Club is located at 116 Cummings Park, Woburn.
New students receive top-of-the-line boxing gloves. Returning students pay a reduced fee because they already have their gloves.
