Boxing Near Dulwich: Your 2026 Guide

Dulwich is one of the most pleasant parts of south London. Dulwich Park is well-maintained and widely used. Dulwich Picture Gallery is one of the oldest public art galleries in the country. West Dulwich and East Dulwich stations give reasonable rail access to central London.

Dulwich also sits in an area where serious boxing facilities are thin on the ground. The nearest club with the right combination of qualified coaches, proper structure, and accessible pricing is Honour and Glory Boxing Club in Kidbrooke, 32 minutes by car.

About the Club

Honour and Glory was founded in 2020. It is not part of a chain and it is not a gym that bought a set of punch bags and marketed them as boxing. It is a proper boxing club, ABA affiliated, with coaches holding ABA/Alliance ratings.

The address is 122 Broad Walk, Kidbrooke, SE3 8ND. Free parking is available on site, which is a practical advantage for members driving from Dulwich in the evening. The club has over 200 members and holds a 4.9-star Google rating from more than 40 reviews.

Sessions Available

Adult recreational boxing runs Monday, Wednesday and Friday, 7:30pm to 9pm. Each session costs £10. No contract, no joining fee, no direct debit. You attend when you choose and pay for those sessions only.

The women's boxing class runs every Saturday morning from 10am to 11am, also at £10 per session.

Junior Recreational covers ages 7 to 16 and runs Mon/Wed/Fri 5-6pm. Junior Competitive starts from age 10 where suitable and runs Mon/Wed/Fri 6-7:30pm.

Getting There from Dulwich

From East or West Dulwich, the most practical car route is east along Lordship Lane and then north through New Cross toward the A2, following signs for Kidbrooke and Blackheath. The journey takes around 32 minutes in ordinary traffic.

By rail, East Dulwich connects via London Bridge toward Blackheath, with connections to Kidbrooke. West Dulwich gives access toward Bromley and then toward Lewisham. Check TfL for the current best option. The journey is longer than driving but several members make it work.

What the Training Involves

Sessions are structured. You will cover technical boxing, bag work, pad work with the coaches, and conditioning elements. The coaching team has worked with competitive and recreational boxers and the instruction is appropriate to both.

Beginners start with the fundamentals and progress at a sensible pace. The coaching is specific and technical. You will learn how to box properly, not just how to move vigorously in front of a mirror.

What to Bring

Gym clothes and a water bottle. Hand wraps are useful but the gym has gloves available to borrow for your first session. Once you decide to continue, your coach will advise on equipment.
