GV — Owner & Head Coach
Welcome — and well done for starting. This is everything you need before your first session. No surprises.
1 What happens
Your session is 50 minutes, in your home, one-on-one and non-contact. We start with a consultation first (30 minutes, $75), then your first lesson begins with the basics: guard, then jab and cross. There is no sparring and no fitness test — we build from where you are.
-
1. Consultation first
30 min, $75 — goals, experience and health.
-
2. First lesson
50 minutes at your home. One-on-one, non-contact.
-
3. Guard first
Stance, hands up, chin tucked.
-
4. Then jab & cross
One thing at a time, repeated until it sticks.
2 Your space
- Clear a small bit of floor — a living room is fine, with room to step forward, back and to the side.
- Move anything breakable or easy to trip on out of the way.
- Keep pets in another room, and your phone on silent, so you can focus.
- Lights on or curtains open — we both need to see your guard clearly.
- I will bring what we need for the work.
3 What to wear & bring
- Comfortable training clothes you can move in, and flat shoes.
- Water and a towel, close by — fill your bottle before we start.
- Your own gloves, hand wraps and skipping rope, if you have them.
- Tie long hair back; take off watches or jewellery that could catch.
- No gloves yet? Don’t rush to buy — ask at your consultation what suits you.
4 Physical prep
- Get a decent sleep, and drink water through the day.
- Eat light — not on a full stomach, and not on an empty one.
- No need to work out first — we warm up in the session, so arrive fresh.
- Go at your pace — rest when you need to, and say so at any time.
- Tell me beforehand about any injury, limitation or health issue, so I can work around it.
5 Mental prep
- Nerves are normal — almost everyone feels them first time.
- No experience needed. You don’t need to be fit to start — you get fit by starting.
- Session one is learning, not testing — nobody is judging your fitness or form.
- We learn one thing at a time. If you forget something, we go over it again.
- Come as you are. The first step is showing up.
If nerves kick in — the 3-Step Reset
- 1.Breathe — in for 4, out for 4, twice.
- 2.Guard up.
- 3.One thing — pick one thing to focus on.
