Boxing ladies

Ding ding, it’s time for the next round of female family boxing!

Get Up and Go with teamed up with Team Bessey's white collar boxing club in October to offer a 6 week beginner boxing course in Leigh Park for women.

16 women took part, many of which were mother and daughter pairs, together and all enjoyed the course.

Due to the success of the course, we are excited to announce that the sessions will be returning on a weekly basis in 2025, starting on 8 January.

Cllr Gillian Harris, Cabinet Lead for Regeneration & Communities, said: “Following the success of the last course, I am so pleased we can offer more sessions.

“These sessions are a great way to get or keep fit and to provide the opportunity for women to get strong and work together!”

A participant from the last course, said: "This has got me off the sofa and actually enjoy a workout! My daughter and I have bonded over learning new skills together, and I feel more energised to keep active".

The class is £5 for adults and £3 for under 18's.
