Description
Boxing for gender diverse, two-spirit and trans youth program is very excited to add Tsvi as a second coach to work with River and all of our athletes.
This class will teach the basics of punching and footwork of boxing, which is not only fun and fosters confidence and body awareness. Boxing is also an excellent practice for coordination and overall movement literacy. Some youth learn to discover their strength, some to regulate their strength.
This is a non-contact class. Equipment is provided.
