BOXING AND FIT-BOXING AT LES CORTS
Two different ways of hitting a bag. One teaches you to box; the other uses boxing to get you fit.
[ THE DIFFERENCE ]
THEY ARE NOT THE SAME
It is the question we get asked most, and it is worth clearing up before you choose.
BOXING
You learn to box: guard, footwork, defence and combinations. You work on the bag, on pads and, if you want, controlled sparring. It is a sport, with its technique and its progression. Nobody makes you step into the ring.
FIT-BOXING
It uses boxing movements as a conditioning tool: rounds on the bag with leg and strength work in between. Technique matters, but the goal is the training session, not the fight.
[ WHAT A CLASS LOOKS LIKE ]
ROUNDS, TECHNIQUE AND PLENTY OF LEGS
You start with the rope and shoulder and hip mobility. Then technique: the coach corrects your guard and the punch of the day, always from the footwork, because in boxing the legs matter more than the arms. Then come the rounds: bag, pads or partner work, with measured rest. And it closes with conditioning — core, lower body, grip — and stretching. You leave with a soaked shirt and having learned something. Both things, not just one.
[ TO GET STARTED ]
WHAT YOU NEED
THE FIRST TIME
Comfortable clothes and water. We lend you the gloves and wraps so you can try before buying anything.
IF YOU KEEP GOING
Your own gloves and wraps. We advise you on weight and type depending on what you will do: the bag is not the same as pads.
IF YOU WANT TO SPAR
Gumshield and headguard. It is optional and always controlled: you step in when the coach sees your defence is ready, not before.
[ PROFILES ]
WHO IT IS FOR
YOU HAVE NEVER BOXED
Most of the class started the same way. You learn from scratch, with no contact and no rush.
YOU WANT TO SWITCH OFF
Forty minutes on the bag leaves no room to think about anything else. It is the most repeated reason people come back.
YOU ALREADY TRAIN AT KOR
It fits well as a complementary session: it works shoulder, core and coordination without loading the back.

[ FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ]
WHAT PEOPLE USUALLY ASK US
Is there contact in the classes?
Only if you want it and when the coach judges your defence is ready. You can train boxing for years without sparring.
Do I need to be fit?
No. The rounds adapt and so do the rests. Fitness arrives on its own within a few weeks.
Which do I choose, boxing or fit-boxing?
If the sport and the technique interest you, boxing. If you want a hard session that also teaches you to punch properly, fit-boxing. Try one of each: the first is free.
Are there classes for women?
Classes are mixed and roughly half the club are women. No separate group needed.
Can I combine it with CrossFit?
Yes, and it works well. We help you spread the week.
Where exactly is it?
At KOR Les Corts, Carrer Maria Barrientos 16, five minutes from Les Corts metro.
