Can parents train with the kids...?

We love the idea of parents training with their kids and we have seen great benefits of this idea. If you have a group of parents and children interested in training together, please contact us to arrange a series of classes. As parents, we need to set an example for our kids. Exercise and learning new skills should always be a part of our lives. Why do we drive our kids to after-school activities and then sit on the side-lines, looking at our phones, and complaining that we have no time for exercise?! Get up and join in. These classes are designed to challenge Youth 10-17 years and their parents if they accept the challenge…

Will you be adding more classes?

Yes, definitely! Magic Boxing started up as COVID restrictions eased with a very modest timetable. Now that our clients are aware of, and loving our classes, we will continue to add new times. Please feel free to send us a message to let us know what times you would like to see added to our schedule. Thank you.
