HEAVY BAGS
“See the target, hit the target” – there’s more to the heavy bag than just that. In this community class, you will learn how to accurately time the heavy bag when hitting it to avoid a drastic swing, how to control the heavy bag with the use of footwork, and how to detect patterns on the heavy bag – what punches will cause it to slow down or change direction. Being accurate on the heavy bag is important in order to “feel” a correct and technically landed punch or combination. Speed and power can now be learned properly with these skills adapted to avoid learning bad habits on the bag.

TARGETS
Much like hitting the heavy bag, you can achieve skills such as timing, distance, speed, power, footwork, accuracy, detecting patterns and controlling the opponent with the use of targets. In this community class, you will learn how to land a combination without throwing short punches, detect what your partner is doing before they raise the target, or what direction they are moving in, and feel when a proper punch is landed. With the angles always changing from the target holder, footwork is also key in setting up a combination. Thursday’s 4:45pm BOXTECH® Youth is now All Levels + Sparring.
