ABOUT ANTON
Anton Pattenden is the head coach at Honour and Glory Boxing Club, Kidbrooke, SE3. He has been coaching boxing for over 15 years, working with everyone from children taking their first steps in the sport to adults preparing for competitive bouts.
His technical approach is grounded in the fundamentals: footwork, guard, punch mechanics, and defensive movement. Anton believes that getting the basics right creates boxers who progress faster and stay injury-free. It is the same approach whether you are training for fitness or preparing for the ABA Championships.
Anton holds a BBBofC coach licence, the same standard required to work professional boxing corners, and is ABA Level 2 qualified through England Boxing. He is DBS checked and holds a current safeguarding certification, as required by England Boxing for all coaches working with young people.
His 1-to-1 personal training work is available to adults and older juniors. Sessions are built around the individual, not a fixed programme. If you are a complete beginner, Anton will start from stance and guard. If you have been boxing for years and want to compete, he will build the ring craft and conditioning to get you ready.
Anton has cornered boxers at ABA championships and runs all competitive preparation at the club. He understands what it takes to step through the ropes and be ready on the night.
