Those who wish to become competition Boxers We are interested in those that would dream of representing Australia at Olympic level as it is our dream is to coach Australia's first gold medal. Joe's Boxing is a privately owned boxing school with Joe as its principle. We are not government funded so student fees and merchandise sales are the primary way the school is supported and although we are open to community support and sponsorship we aim to be self sufficient and therefore we are charging a reasonable fees to produce fantastic results. We now have a competitive team of over 20 people and growing. We operate as a team, help & one another and no member competitive or not is more important than anyone else no matter what level of success they achieve. We are not interested in ego's or selfish behaviour and will not tolerate disrespect. Mechanics We aim to package competition to make it a simple process for someone to start as a beginner and achieve competition standard and compete as quickly as possible, depending on a persons dedication, ability and when competition arises this could be as soon as two months but is more likely to be six months, a year or even longer and rushing to get there is not necessarily a good thing. Joe prefers that people start on our Starter course or competitors evaluation course then choose a competitors or contenders membership which start from $150 per month where it gives an opportunity for Joe to individually coach and prepare the student for battle . Included in this price will be the registration fee for the Amateur boxing association plus competition singlets and use of competition headgears. The student is expected to purchase practise headgear and Joe's boxing shorts all of which can be purchased here. Alternatively a student can join at our normal monthly rate (currently $110 per month) and pay a one off payment of $150 which includes registration , competition singlet and two private coaching sessions with Joe before their first competition fight. Students must be on a monthly membership to be eligible to register to fight under Joe's Boxing name. Here are few tips for success in your bid to become a competition fighter.
We have the skill , experience, resources and facilities to take someone all the way but only the ones that have the determination, intelligence & humility will succeed. Always Do Private lessons A student who had not been practicing very long was warming up before class. A high-ranking black belt student approached the beginner and introduced himself, asking how his practice was going. This senior student possessed great skill and was known by all to be one of the best martial artists in the school. The beginner was excited to be speaking with him and took the opportunity to ask for advice. “How did you get so good?” he asked. The black belt student answered very seriously, “ I’ve practiced a long time, and I only take private classes-never group.” The beginner thought, “Only private classes! That would be very expensive, but the price must be worth it. He is probably the best martial artist in the entire school.” Before the beginner expressed his thought, the advanced student added, “No matter how many people are in the class, pretend that you and the instructor are alone in the room. Everything that he says, ‘Keep your hands up! Curl your toes back! Bend your knees!’ is intended for you. He is talking directly and specifically to you in each and every moment. Check and recheck yourself. From now on, only take private classes.” He bowed and walked away. The best advice to a new beginner, “Cultivate and develop a great relationship with your instructor, and only take private classes.” - extract from Sifu Robert Brown "Lessons in mindfullness"
