You'll use heavy bags, practice movement patterns, and work through rounds that build stamina and coordination while burning serious calories. Classes are designed for all fitness levels, so you don't need experience to start, and you won't feel lost in Saint John if you're new to boxing.

What Happens During a Coached Boxing Session
You start with a warmup that includes footwork and light movement, then move into coached rounds where you practice jabs, crosses, hooks, and uppercuts on heavy bags. Your coach calls out combinations and corrects your stance, helping you throw punches with power instead of just swinging. Classes in Saint John run for about an hour and include conditioning drills between rounds to keep your heart rate elevated.
After a few weeks, you'll notice your shoulders and core feel stronger, your cardio improves, and you can move through combinations without getting winded halfway through. Your hands learn to move faster, your footwork becomes sharper, and you finish each class feeling physically spent but mentally clear.
You'll need hand wraps and gloves, which the GYM can provide or help you purchase if you plan to train regularly. Classes are scheduled throughout the week to fit different work and family schedules, and because they're structured with a coach present, you show up knowing exactly what to expect and how hard you'll be pushed.
You're Not Expected to Know Everything Walking In
Most people who sign up for boxing classes have questions about what to bring, how hard it will be, or whether they'll feel out of place if they've never trained before. These answers cover the practical details so you can decide if it's the right fit for you.
What should I bring to my first boxing class?
You'll need comfortable workout clothes, athletic shoes, and water. Hand wraps and gloves are provided for your first class, but you can purchase your own if you plan to train regularly at BOX 219 GYM.
How long does a typical boxing class last?
Classes run for about an hour and include warmup, coached rounds on heavy bags, conditioning drills, and cooldown. You'll be moving the entire time, so expect a full-body workout from start to finish.
What if I've never boxed before?
Most members start with no boxing experience. Coaches walk you through proper stance, hand positioning, and basic punches during your first few classes, so you're not expected to know anything before you show up.
How often should I take boxing classes to see results?
Training two to three times per week gives you enough volume to build strength, stamina, and technique without overtraining. You'll start noticing improvements in cardio and coordination within the first month.
Why do people in Saint John choose boxing over other cardio workouts?
Boxing combines cardio, strength, and stress relief in a way that feels more engaging than running on a treadmill. The coached format keeps you accountable, and the intensity makes every session count when time is limited.
If you're tired of workouts that feel repetitive or don't push you hard enough, boxing classes at BOX 219 GYM in Saint John give you structure, coaching, and a challenge that shows up in how you feel and how you move. Get in touch to schedule your first class.
