Big Gay Boxing

SWEAT IT ALL OUT 💦

Big Gay Boxing is a seriously fun werkout with totally iconic playlists — a safe space to make friends and feel good.

Together we trade sweat for joy and strength. We learn, burn and have furrn.

What to expect:

• Sweaty: Rotate through nine rounds of exercise including beginner boxing combinations with pads and gloves (partner-based, non-violent), and bodyweight conditioning movements. It's your body, your choice — so feel free to modify and slow down or speed up as needed.

• Silly: Each session is powered by a unique theme from gay pop culture, with a hand-crafted playlist to match. Dance, laugh and embrace queer joy with us.

• Social: Our team are warm, friendly and keen to chat. If you're attending solo (like most people), we'll help you meet someone new to partner up with.
