The story
"Why this sport?" Ask anyone at EMMA and you get a different answer. For this member, the answer starts at home: he chose boxing because his grandfather boxed. It is a family sport, and he wanted to carry it on.
He started to learn how to push himself physically — and because he believes every man should be able to defend himself. For him, boxing is also about control: learning to manage emotions and to do things calmly while under pressure.
That mix of reasons is common in our classes. Some come for fitness, some for self-defense, some for family or for the challenge itself. The Boxing Mix class welcomes all of them, from complete beginners to fighters.
