Starting from scratch?

Never boxed before? Good.

Most people who start training at Krank haven’t boxed before. You don’t need to arrive fit, confident or knowing what you’re doing.

Beginners train as part of our fully coached Group Training sessions, learning the fundamentals while building fitness, movement and confidence.

There isn’t a separate beginner class. You train alongside the Krank community, with coaching and exercises adapted so you can start at the right level and progress from there.

Learn the fundamentals

Start with the foundations.

Good boxing starts with how you stand, move and control your body.

Within our group sessions, you’ll learn stance, balance, footwork and punch technique before gradually putting everything together into combinations and drills.

You’re not simply getting tired. You’re actually learning a skill.

Your boxing toolkit

Simple foundations first. Then we build from there as part of your group training.

You won’t be left to figure it out yourself.

Boxing can feel complicated when you’re new. That’s why our group sessions are coached throughout.

We break movements down, correct technique and help you understand what you’re doing and why you’re doing it.

You’ll be challenged, but you won’t be expected to keep up with somebody who’s been training for years.
