Recreational Boxing
Recreational boxing is for people aged 14 and over who want to train like a boxer without sparring.
Sessions cover technique, footwork, coordination, physical endurance and the other qualities of a boxer, all without gloved contact. It often helps beginners build confidence before moving on to educational boxing (assaut).
Guided by qualified, experienced coaches, our members get tailored support: learning the basics, technical development, physical and mental preparation.
The gym is equipped with rings, heavy bags, strength equipment and cardio machines, for complete and varied training.
Amateur Boxing
Amateur boxing differs from professional boxing in several ways. It emphasises technique and tactics, with bouts decided on points: every clean, scoring punch counts.
It is also the route to the Olympic Games, where amateur boxing has featured since 1904.
Since 2012, this safer form of boxing has allowed senior men boxing 3 x 3 minutes to fight without headgear.
For all other age and weight categories, headgear remains compulsory.
Amateur boxing in France has produced some great sporting moments, notably Brahim Asloum’s Olympic gold medal at Sydney 2000.
Other French boxers have won Olympic gold: Paul Fritsch (57 kg) in 1920, Jean Despeaux (75 kg) and Roger Michelot (81 kg)
in 1936, and Tony Yoka (+91 kg) in 2016.
Pro Boxing
Professional boxing is built on the effectiveness and power of punches. Boxers look for clean, spectacular combinations. It is the best-known form of the sport, home to the greatest champions in world and French boxing history: Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson, Marcel Cerdan, Fabrice Tiozzo…
Professional boxing differs from amateur boxing on several points: boxers enter the ring without a vest and bouts last longer (more rounds). Boxers generally start their professional career after coming through the amateur ranks.
This path lets the athlete combine the technical and tactical side of amateur boxing
with the more physical demands of the pro game.
But be aware, it is not compulsory.
To obtain a professional licence, you must be between 18 and 35 years old and meet certain conditions (record, medical examinations – see the professional boxing regulations).
Educational Boxing (Assaut)
Educational boxing (assaut) is open to everyone, from 6 to 77 years old.
It differs from amateur and professional boxing on two fundamental requirements:
• Do not harm your opponent
• Be penalised for
any violent behaviour
The logic of boxing stays the same whatever the format.
Only the power of the contact sets them apart.
Power is what expressly separates educational boxing, where you score touches, from the other formats. Participants must win through technical and tactical quality, never through the force of their punches.
Speed of execution is unchanged, but must come with total control of the impact, or be penalised.
Educational boxing develops speed, endurance, flexibility and elasticity. It also introduces students to the different techniques of boxing: attack, attack preparation, defence, counter-attack and counter.
The coach uses specific situations to teach students how to manage effort, space and time better in order to improve their chances of winning the bout.
Cardio Boxing
Cardio boxing is a high-intensity interval training (HIIT) workout that combines boxing movements with aerobic exercise.
It is a great full-body workout: it trains your heart, lungs, muscles and core. Cardio boxing can help you burn calories, lose weight and improve your cardiovascular health. It is also a great way to relieve stress and lift your mood.
Cardio boxing equipment usually consists of boxing gloves, a heavy bag or a step. We can also use weights for strength work, and don’t forget the essential skipping rope for a complete, all-round workout.
Cardio boxing is a great workout for everyone (from recreational to competitive), whatever your fitness level. Beginners can start with shorter sessions at a slower pace. As you get stronger, you can increase the length and intensity of your sessions.
Here are some of the benefits of cardio boxing:
Better cardiovascular fitness
Calorie burn and weight loss
Muscle toning
A great outlet to release stress and anxiety
Improved coordination and balance
More self-confidence
If you are looking for a challenging, fun workout that will help you get in shape, cardio boxing is a great option.
