Lion R.A.W Boxing Academy

🥊 Sharp feet. Sharp hands. Sharp minds. 🥊

Tonight’s session was all about mastering the basics that win fights. Using floor hoops, our young boxers worked on stepping in, firing a clean **1-2**, pivoting, throwing another **2**, pivoting again, then stepping back out under control.

It’s not just about punching hard—it’s about creating angles, staying balanced, and moving with purpose. Every repetition builds confidence, coordination, and ring IQ. 💯

At Lion R.A.W Boxing Academy, we believe champions are made by perfecting the fundamentals, one step at a time. 🦁🥊

🥊 Technique over power. Precision wins fights 🎯

In this drill we worked on the fundamentals of boxing:

Our coach became the target, holding the gloves to represent the head and body, while each boxer stepped in from the corner, landed a clean jab to the head, a jab to the body, then stepped back out before the next boxer took their turn.

Simple drills like this build:

- Sharp accuracy
- Correct distance and footwork
- Level changes
- Fast reactions
- Confidence through repetition

Champions aren’t built by throwing hundreds of punches... they’re built by practising the right punches over and over again.

Every rep matters. Every session counts. 🔥🥊

🥊 **THROWBACK... Before the gym. Before the ring. Before we had a place to call home.**

These two have been here since the beginning.

They trained wherever we could find space—community halls, sports centres, borrowed venues. We didn’t have our own gym, but that never stopped them. Every session, they turned up, worked hard, respected everyone around them, and gave **100%**, no matter where we were training.

Watching them grow from teens with big dreams into the adults they are today has been one of the greatest privileges for everyone at Lion R.A.W. Boxing Academy.

Success isn’t built by having the best facilities—it’s built by commitment, resilience, and showing up when nobody is watching.

Thank you both for believing in the journey, sticking with the club through every chapter, and helping build the Lion R.A.W. family into what it is today.

The gym may have changed, but the values never have. ❤️🦁🥊

Last night, the gloves are off... just for one evening. 🥊🎩

A huge shoutout to one of our young champions who’s swapped the boxing ring for the Year 6 prom dance floor last night! You’ve worked hard in the gym, shown respect, discipline and determination, and now it’s time to celebrate an incredible milestone.

I hope you enjoyed every moment, made memories with your friends, and walked into prom with the same confidence you bring into the ring. Next stop... Year 7! 💪✨

I hope you had an amazing night, Champ! Your Lion R.A.W. Boxing Academy family can’t wait to hear all about it.

🥊 **Success isn’t built alone... it’s built together.**

There’s something special about seeing two brothers sharing the ring. One with experience, the other just beginning his boxing journey. Every word of encouragement, every challenge and every smile is helping to build far more than boxing skills—it’s building confidence, resilience and self-belief.

Today’s training was all about staying disciplined under pressure. Working in their boxing stance, battling to remove the balls from each other’s Velcro vest, they learned balance, focus, movement and determination while having fun. 💥

The older brother leads by example, encouraging his younger brother to keep pushing, while continuing to sharpen his own skills with quality pad work alongside his coach. The strongest role models don’t just improve themselves—they inspire those around them to believe in what they can achieve.

At Lion Raw Boxing Academy, every session is about more than boxing. It’s about teamwork, respect, discipline and helping each other become the very best version of ourselves.

Every champion was once a beginner. Keep turning up, keep learning and never stop trying. 🦁🥊

Every champion is built one rep at a time. 🥊

This session was all about building the foundations that win fights.

🔥 Leg raises with a medicine ball to develop explosive core strength and control.
🔥 Toe taps while throwing punches with dumbbells to challenge footwork, coordination, endurance, and shoulder conditioning all at once.
🔥 Sit-ups with dumbbells to build a powerful core, improve upper-body strength, and develop the resilience needed to keep pushing when fatigue sets in.

When your body is tired but your mind keeps pushing, that’s where growth happens. Success isn’t about doing what’s easy—it’s about staying disciplined when every muscle tells you to stop.

Every rep. Every punch. Every step. It’s all preparing you for the moments that matter most.

The work you do in training is the confidence you bring into the ring. Keep grinding. Keep believing. Your future self will thank you. 👊💯

Endurance isn’t built when it’s easy. It’s built when your body wants to stop, but your mind decides to keep going.

Today at Lion Raw Boxing Academy, we put in the work with medicine balls, resistance bands, dumbbells, and push-up bars. Every rep, every round, and every challenge was about building resilience, discipline, and belief.

Watching a young boxer and an adult train side by side is a reminder that progress has no age limit. They pushed each other, encouraged each other, and proved that success comes from teamwork, consistency, and refusing to quit.

Keep showing up. Keep pushing. Keep believing. The strength you build today will carry you through tomorrow’s challenges.

**Not every lesson happens inside the gym.**

One of the proudest moments as a coach is when your boxer chooses to train without being asked. Whether they’re at home, on holiday, or away from the club, they’re still thinking about improving. That isn’t just discipline—it’s passion.

Real progress begins when motivation becomes self-driven. As coaches, our goal isn’t to create athletes who only work hard when we’re watching. It’s to build confident, independent boxers who take ownership of their journey, trust the process, and understand that every session counts.

When a boxer starts planning their own training, packing their own kit, and looking for ways to improve wherever they are, you know they’ve fallen in love with the sport.

Champions aren’t made by one great session—they’re made by the decisions they make when nobody is watching.

🥊 Keep showing up. Keep trusting the process. Keep building your future.
