    Hi J...
    Did u find a place after ?

    I'm looking at Marble boxing club but not sure how open they are to novices.

    I did boxing training in a kick boxing club in Sydney for a year and loved the fitness more than anything and was looking at getting back into it.


    Cheers

    No I never found it after.

    I did join a kick boxing club in Irish town. It did boxing classes on a monday and friday from 7.30-8.30. I had to stop going because the times didn't suit me but the guys there were very friendly and u didn't need any experience. It was 8 euro a lesson I think.

    I think there called kickboxpro...it's up an ally way beside a chinese take away in irish town ( near the killkenny inn)

    Top Pro.

    The boxing coach has left and set up his own club and from what I hear it's cheaper too.
