Boxing instructors: run beginner boxing classes
How boxing instructors can run beginner boxing classes with online booking: places per class, weekly blocks, kit to bring, women-only and youth groups.
5 min read
A beginner boxing class needs the right number of people for your bags, pads and floor space, and enough attention to teach technique safely. Taking names by message, you never know how many will turn up. With Book, each class is a service with a set number of places; beginners book their own place, and a full class leaves your page.
One service per class
On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description, all shown on your public page. Each slot belongs to one service, sits within one day and has its own capacity.
| Service | Example slot | Places | Example price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Beginner boxing class | 1 h | 12 | €12 |
| Trial class | 1 h | 4 | Free |
| Women-only boxing | 1 h | 10 | €12 |
| Youth boxing 12–16 | 1 h | 10 | €10 |
| Private pad session | 45 min | 1 | €40 |
Durations, places and prices are examples: set places to your bags and space.
Weekly blocks for beginners
Slots repeat weekly on the weekdays you choose until an end date. A six-week beginner course lets a group learn together from the basics. People book each session, or you book the whole block for someone from your bookings list. First and last name are enough; with their email, they get a confirmation with a calendar file for each session.
What to bring
- sports clothes and trainers;
- hand wraps and gloves, or whether you lend them;
- a water bottle and towel;
- that no sparring happens in beginner classes, if that's your rule.
Trial classes
A trial class with a few places lets newcomers try before committing. Leave the price empty, or set zero to show €0.00.
Women-only and youth groups
Give these groups their own services and times. For youth classes, a parent books in their own name with the child's first name and age in the note, according to the rules that apply to you.
Health questions
Ask people with injuries or health conditions to contact you before booking, rather than writing details in the note, which appears in their calendar file.
Private sessions alongside
Slots of different services can overlap, so keep private pad sessions at times when no class runs. See the guide on private pad sessions.
What Book doesn't do
Book doesn't take payments, sell memberships or class packs, or send reminders. People can't move or cancel online: they contact you. One booking page per business, no staff field: with other coaches, create classes per coach. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
