Your first session should feel clear and welcoming. At H&G, beginners are coached
properly from the start, with structure, friendly support and no pressure to know what
you're doing already.
We built H&G specifically so that doesn't happen. Qualified coaches. Proper structure.
A gym where showing up on your first day feels like joining something - not
auditioning for it.
That's what the free trial is for. Come and see for yourself.

I attended my first taster session and had such a positive experience. Anton was great—really welcoming, encouraging, and knowledgeable, which made it easy to settle in straight away.
The gym has a fantastic atmosphere and a great energy. I’m usually quite easily intimidated by sports and gym environments, but I felt comfortable.
I’d been looking for something that offered real boxing fitness and training rather than just another boxercise-style class, and this has absolutely delivered. It feels authentic, challenging, and exactly what I was hoping to find.
I’m really looking forward to joining the weekly sessions and continuing to train here. Highly recommended!

COMMON QUESTIONS
Do I need any experience?
No. Most people start as complete beginners. The coaches will show you everything from how to stand to how to throw your first punch.
What do I wear?
Comfortable sportswear and trainers. We have gloves and wraps you can borrow. Bring water and a towel.
Do I need to be fit?
No. You'll get fit by training. The coaches scale the intensity to your level. If you need to rest, rest. Nobody judges.
Will I get hit or spar?
Not in your trial. You'll hit pads and bags, not people. Sparring is optional, controlled, and only when you're ready - usually months down the line.
How much does it cost after the trial?
Pay as you go, £8.50-£10 per session depending on the class. No contracts. Come when you can.
If you are not ready to send the form yet, compare the criteria people usually mean when they search for the best, friendliest or most beginner-friendly boxing club.
Your first session can feel daunting. Here is everything you actually need to know,
honestly.
You do not need to look, speak or act a certain way to belong here. If you are respectful,
coachable and willing to work, you are welcome.
WILL I GET HIT?
No. Your trial is pad work, bag work and technique. There is zero sparring for
beginners. You will not be paired up with someone experienced and thrown in. That is not
how we do things.
DO I NEED TO BE FIT?
Not even slightly. Most people who walk through our door haven't trained in years, some
never have. The coaches will meet you where you are. Go at your own pace, take breaks
when you need to, and nobody will bat an eye.
WHAT DO I WEAR?
Any comfortable sportswear and clean trainers. We provide gloves, wraps and all the
equipment. Just bring a water bottle.
WHEN SHOULD I ARRIVE?
Come 10 minutes early so a coach can say hello, show you around and get you set up with
gloves. No paperwork, no fuss.
HOW LONG AND HOW MUCH?
Sessions run for about an hour. Your first trial is completely free, no card details, no
sign-up fee. If you enjoy it and want to keep coming, we will chat about membership
afterwards. No pressure either way.
FROM PEOPLE WHO WERE NERVOUS TOO
"I nearly talked myself out of going three times. Walked in, everyone was friendly,
and I have been back every week since. Wish I had started sooner."
Sarah, joined aged 34
"I was worried I would be the least fit person there. Turns out everyone is just
focused on their own thing. The coaches made me feel welcome from minute one."
