Does anyone know the place he was referring to or know of another place that's suit me?

In the same situation as Scifo, had a few boxcercise classes and loved the workout so would like to continue but I'm not with that gym anymore. If anybody knows any place in the Christchurch/ Leonard's Corner area that'd be great?

Want to take up boxing

hi,
I live in near Monkstown and would like to start boxing. Ive gotten out of shape over the last 2 years due to a shoulder injury, but boxing was recommended to me and i think would be great for fitness. I would really like to give it a go.

Im just wondering if I would need to buy any gear before I go down to monkstown like gloves ect, or can I use em there?
Any help would be be great.
:)

You shouldnt go out an buy any new gear until you like it first. The club has boxing gloves etc that can be used but if you are gonna stay it would be in your own interest to purchase your own gear. Try it out for a few nights first.

Question

Hey everybody in here.

I'm a Danish boxer from Denmark. I am going to Dublin on the 8'th of december on a field trip with my class. I'm going to stay in Dublin for 7 days. My question for U guys is: I have a rather important fight 2 days after i get home, so I would like to know if there is a club nearby where I'm living. We are going to live in a hostel called Avalon House in the center of Dublin. It would be great if I could come and train with you. I'm a Super Heavyweight and way in at 105 kg. I've box about 35 fights.

I hope to hear from some of you sone.

With regards

Nicolai Thoergersen

I dont think they do, best thing is to contact the secretary and ask for coaches number, if this does not work out ask for contact number of other city center club coaches, there's a few about..

let us know if it works out for you...

Thank you very much for your help. Does the secretary have an email that I can contact them on. The reason I hesitate to call, is because I'm not very good at speaking english, so I worry they cant understand me.

no email, the other thing you could do is show up some evening about 7 and tell them your story, they welcome people to spar up there anyway and would be glad of a heavyweight i'd say..
