Box Juniors

We offer regular non-contact boxing sessions at our Bristol gym which re open to all young people aged 10-16. Young people can start their Empire Fighting Chance journey here or continue their growth after completing one of our programmes.

Box Juniors is a non-contact boxing class designed to teach young people fundamental boxing techniques, improve their fitness levels, and provide a fun environment without any physical contact or sparring.

The class is led by an experienced Bristol Boxing Gym coach alongside a psychologically informed Empire Fighting Chance coach. They provide instruction on shadow boxing drills, punchbag workouts, circuit training, and skipping.

With Box Juniors, young people can develop their skills and confidence in the sport of boxing while enjoying a secure and supportive atmosphere.

We welcome young people from all backgrounds and abilities to our Box Juniors sessions in the evenings and weekends at the gym.

We regularly get referrals to our other three programmes through Box Juniors. Our coaches also encourage the alumni of Box Champions, Box Therapy and Box Careers to join Box Juniors sessions to continue their growth once their programme ends.

Two sessions take place per day on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, at 4:15 - 5:15pm and 5:15 - 6:15pm.

Box Juniors sessions are free of charge to alumni of our programmes. To join these sessions please speak directly with your coach or your point of contact at Empire Fighting Chance who can sign you up.

Alternatively, if you would like to pay for sessions, get in touch with Bristol Boxing Gym directly.
