The short answer
Can I book private boxing lessons in Blackheath?
Yes. I offer mobile 1-to-1 boxing coaching in Blackheath, with sessions arranged around your experience, goals and location. Standard private sessions normally last 60 minutes and cost £75–£95, depending on the package. You can train for fitness without sparring or being hit.

Equipment: pads, gloves and session equipment provided.
Availability: weekday daytime slots available; ask about other times. No Sunday sessions.
Your training
What happens in your boxing session?
The first session starts with a conversation about your experience, fitness and what you want from training. You might want to learn the basics, feel more confident exercising, improve your stamina or sharpen your technique. We use that starting point to choose the pace and exercises.
01
Warm up and move
mobility and gentle movement to prepare for the session.
02
Build the basics
stance, guard, balance and footwork before adding punches and combinations.
03
Practise on the pads
coached rounds with feedback on timing, accuracy and defence. Beginners work through manageable combinations.
04
Develop fitness
conditioning, strength and core exercises selected for your goals and current ability.
05
Review and recover
a cool-down and a clear idea of what to practise and progress next time.
As you improve, we can progress the combinations, movement and work rate. The aim is to develop a skill while building a training habit you can sustain.
Start at your level
New to boxing, or returning after a break?
You do not need to get fit before you start. Private coaching gives us time to explain a movement, repeat it and adjust the pace without trying to keep up with a class. You can train entirely through non-contact exercises.
If you have boxed before, we can spend more time on technique, defensive movement and conditioning. For white-collar boxing goals, tell me about your event and experience so we can discuss appropriate preparation.
If you are comparing local classes with private lessons, the main difference is the amount of individual coaching and the way sessions are arranged. My Blackheath service is booked directly with me, either one-to-one or as a shared session with a friend or partner.

Blackheath & SE3
Where can we train?
Tell me your postcode and whether you prefer outdoor or at-home training. If you are meeting me near Blackheath Village or travelling via Blackheath station, mention that when you enquire so we can agree a practical meeting point.
On the Heath
outdoor padwork, footwork and conditioning in a suitable space, with the exact location and any requirements confirmed in advance.
At your home or garden
convenient private coaching without a separate journey to a gym. We check that the space is suitable for movement and equipment.
In a private or residents’ gym
possible where you have access and the venue permits an external trainer. Venue arrangements are agreed before booking.
I also welcome enquiries from nearby Greenwich and Lewisham. Send your location to check travel and availability; the session is arranged directly with me rather than through a drop-in class timetable.
Private 1-to-1 sessions: £75–£95 per session. Pay as you go is £95; the £75 rate applies when booking a block of 20. Standard private sessions normally last 60 minutes.
Two people training together: £110 total per session (£55 each). This can suit partners or friends who want to train together with individual feedback.
For current packages, inclusions and booking terms, see the boxing training packages page. Send your postcode and preferred times so I can confirm the location and availability before you book.
