Parent questions

Check safety, watching, parking, kit and first-session rhythm before booking.

Parent guide

Paid junior PT

Use paid personal training only when a child needs a quieter or more individual first step.

PT option

Parents in Dulwich are usually choosing two things at once: an activity their child will enjoy and a room where the basics are coached safely. Honour and Glory keeps the first step clear. Junior Recreational is the normal group route from age 7, with a free scheduled group-class trial before you decide whether regular training is right.

The first class should show whether your child listens to the coach, follows the room, enjoys the movement and can manage the trip from Dulwich to the club in Kidbrooke. It is not a promise that every child will compete. Junior Competitive exists for older children who are ready for that pathway, but many juniors train for skill, fitness, routine and enjoyment.

If your child is nervous, arrive early and tell the coach. Parents can use the parking, viewing and first-session rhythm to judge whether the club in Kidbrooke feels right. If a private start is needed, use the paid PT route instead of treating it as a free junior trial.

Junior boxing coaching for Dulwich children learning the basics
Junior boxing should feel structured, supervised and suitable for the child in front of the coach, not like a crowded activity slot.

First visit

Choose the junior route first

Junior Recreational is the safest first assumption for most children from Dulwich. The class works on stance, guard, footwork, pads, bags, listening and controlled effort. The coach can then advise whether the child should stay there, take more time, or later consider the competitive pathway.

Do not overcomplicate the first visit. Book the junior group trial, bring water and comfortable training clothes, and allow time to arrive without rushing. If the child has additional needs, is very anxious or may need individual support, WhatsApp the club before booking.

By car from Dulwich

For many Dulwich households, the simplest first visit is by car via the South Circular toward Forest Hill, Lewisham and Kidbrooke. Aim for the club in Kidbrooke, check live traffic, and use the free parking at the gym so the first session starts without a long walk from the road.

Open driving directions

By train or public transport

Dulwich public transport can work from West Dulwich, North Dulwich or nearby bus links, usually with a train connection toward Kidbrooke. Check the live route before you leave and allow enough time to meet the coach and settle in before class.

When price is part of the choice

Use current prices before comparing group classes with paid private coaching. The free trial is for scheduled group classes only, so paid PT should be chosen deliberately rather than treated as the default first step.

Check prices

If you are unsure

Message the club if you are choosing for a nervous child, comparing women-specific and mixed classes, returning after time away, or deciding whether paid PT is better than a group-class trial.

Ask on WhatsApp

Honour and Glory is a community boxing club in Kidbrooke with structured coaching for juniors, adults, women and competitive pathways where appropriate.

A first session should answer practical questions quickly: class fit, coaching tone, parking, travel and whether the Kidbrooke gym works for regular training from Dulwich.

Free trials stay with scheduled group classes. Personal training is paid and enquiry led, with a retained Dulwich PT route when private coaching is the better start.

Dulwich questions before the first class

What age can children start from Dulwich?

Junior Recreational is the normal group route from age 7. Junior Competitive is a later pathway for suitable older juniors, not the default first session.

Is the first kids boxing session free?

Yes, for scheduled group classes. Paid junior personal training is separate and should be arranged by enquiry.

What should my child bring?

Comfortable training clothes, trainers and water are enough for the first visit. Arrive a few minutes early so the coach knows it is your child's first class.
