Thinking about trying boxing for the first time? Walking into a gym can feel daunting — so here’s exactly what your first session at RMC Boxing in Glasgow looks like, and why you’ve got nothing to worry about.
Who it’s for
Everyone. Whether you’re a complete beginner who has never thrown a punch, someone looking to get properly fit, or you fancy stepping into the ring one day, every session is built around you and your level — no experience needed.
What a session looks like
You’ll start with a warm-up, then work through the fundamentals — stance, footwork and basic combinations — before putting it together on the pads with Rio. As you progress, sessions build towards conditioning and, when you’re ready, controlled sparring. Because coaching is one-to-one, the pace is always yours.
Technique first, no egos, everyone welcome.
What to bring
Just comfortable training kit, trainers and a bottle of water. Gloves and wraps can be sorted for your first session, so there’s no need to buy anything before you start.
The atmosphere
That’s how the gym runs — you’ll be coached properly and treated like part of the team from day one.
