BEGINNERS/ first time to sweat depot

Are you a beginner interested in training at Sweat Depot? Or, have you boxed, but never attended Sweat Depot before?

Are you looking for a challenge? Boxing and MMA are definitely a high impact, high intensity sport.
Beginners and First-Time-To-Sweat-Depot-ersare asked to attend a BOXING BASICS class first - even if you have boxed before. We teach correct technique, correct combination calls and prepare you for the HIRT (high intensity resistance training) of our more advanced Fight Fitness classes.
Basics classes are 30 minute classes that are scheduled for 6 weeks during the school terms.

We are a small class coaching system, not a gym, so there are no membership fees. Just book a class on our super easy app and you have the ability to reschedule up to 60 minutes before the class commences.

Fight Fitness Classes - intermediate to advanced level training

One to two classes of FIGHT FITNESS classes will replace seven days at the gym because of our intensive weight bearing and metabolic training.

Our group sessions combine H.I.I.T. and H.I.R.T. with BOXING and KICKBOXING to develop your STRENGTH, SPEED and ENDURANCE.
We utilise the best equipment in the most innovative functional fitness programs - 10 hanging professional bags, chin up bars, slam balls, hex weights, kettlebells, torsion bars, sand bags and tyres with new programs EVERY class. It really is a group personal coaching session for this reason.
Enforcing correct techniques is a must. You will not be babied in these sessions.
A workout that is fast and furious to get those endorphins charging, achieve results FAST and have you coming back for more. We have two 20 second breaks with benchmark intervals so that you will never plateau and will always get a burn.
If you are unsure whether you are fit enough for these classes, please try one of our BACK TO BASICS classes to prepare you for this face paced workout.

OUR BOXING GLOVE RECOMMENDATIONS:
16 ounce for adults
12-14 ounce for kids and teens
leather is a must

If you are hitting the bag in inferior vinyl gloves and NOT damaging your knuckles. you are not punching, you are slapping.
It's probably time to come to me to be taught to punch properly.

These are our standard go-to-recommendation for medium range, comfortable gloves. Grab 16 ounce if you are an adult, 12 or 14 ounce if you are buying for a young teen. $109

For our serious hitters and 4 times a week trainers. $149. If you are buying these 16 ounce is a must.
