Are boxing classes worth it?

Boxing classes are worth it if you're looking for a good whole-body workout or want to learn self-defense. Boxing is easier to learn and inexpensive compared to many gym memberships or martial arts classes.

Boxing is not only a good cardio workout, it also works out the arms, legs, and core. This fighting style also releases tension in a safe environment while helping you reach fitness goals.

How many boxing classes should I attend per week?

Most people attend boxing classes 1 to 3 times per week, though this depends on your budget and schedule. For the best results, consider exercising at the gym or at home in between classes to build strength and endurance.

What should I wear to a boxing class?

Reviews for Wilmington boxing classes

Recent success stories from people in the Wilmington area.
Kyle A.
Charles is an amazing trainer, he knows the intricacies of the musculoskeletal system and how it coordinates with different exercises with different weights. He’s not a trainer that will leave you to your own devices and give you an exercise to do and that’s it. Charles takes the time and the focus to place it on your through every rep and movement, he guides you on the focusing of the particular muscle being worked to achieve the highest quality of work done.

My family became involved with the American Martial Arts Institute 10 years ago when my (then) 7 year old son expressed an interest in learning martial arts. AMAI was the only school in our area offering Chinese Martial Arts, and also one of the few martial arts schools that appeared to focus more on the students as individuals, rather than their trophies displayed in the front window. Over the years, our entire family has participated at some level in the full range of classes that AMAI has to offer - Kung Fu, Tai Chi, Combat Fitness, as well as a variety of seminars focused on specific skills. My son has also been a member of their Leadership team for 6 years; in addition to self defense skills learned through kung fu classes, Leadership class has enhanced both his critical thinking and problem solving ability while enabling him to accumulate the skills he needs to teach martial arts to others. The instructors are top notch and model the qualities of perseverance, modesty, courtesy, discipline and self control that true martial arts strive to instill. I urge anyone interested in leaning kung fu to give AMAI a try.
