Parent checks
Ask the coach before or after the trial about supervision and instructions, talk with your child afterwards about pace, and check parking, pick-up and drop-off.
Private route if needed
Paid PT can suit children who need a slower introduction, individual correction or a smaller setting before joining a group class.
Paid PTFor Falconwood parents, kids boxing is not only about finding the nearest activity. The real question is whether the class is structured, supervised and right for your child. Honour and Glory runs junior boxing at the Kidbrooke gym, with Junior Recreational as the usual group-class start for children aged 7 to 16.
Ask the coach before or after the trial about instructions, stance, guard, footwork, bags and pads. Talk with your child afterwards about how the session felt and whether the pace was right. Parents can use that feedback to judge fit before deciding whether regular training makes sense from Falconwood.
Junior Competitive is a later pathway for young boxers who are ready for a more committed route. It is not something to promise on day one. If your child needs private help, a slower introduction or a family-specific arrangement, use paid personal training rather than the free group-class trial.
First visit
What to check at the first junior class
Arrive early enough for your child to settle, meet the coach and understand where to stand. The first class should be about clear basics and safe effort, not rushing a child into sparring or competition. Ask the coach before or after class about your child settling in, and talk with your child afterwards about how it felt and whether they want to come back.
If your child is nervous, very new to group sport, older and already ambitious, or likely to need more individual support, message before booking. The free trial is for group classes. Paid PT is available separately when a private start would be more suitable.
By car from Falconwood
Use the A2, Rochester Way or local roads toward Kidbrooke, then head for the club at 122 Broad Walk. Check live traffic, arrive a few minutes early and use the free parking at the gym so the first session starts calmly.

Falconwood visitors can use one first group-class trial to check the room, coaching tone, parking, travel and whether regular training at the Kidbrooke gym is realistic.
Free trials stay with scheduled group classes. Paid personal training is separate, enquiry led and useful when a private start is better than joining a group straight away.
