Stronger in Every Round: A Women's Boxing & Wellness Experience

Austin Women's Boxing Club is hosting Stronger in Every Round: A Women's Boxing & Wellness Experience this Sunday, August 30, from 1 PM to 4 PM. It's a women-only afternoon that pairs a boxing session with a wellness conversation, and you don't need any boxing experience to join in.

The boxing half of the afternoon focuses on the basics: stance, footwork, balance, and proper punching technique. Once you've got the fundamentals down, you'll move on to heavy-bag and mitt practice. If you've never stepped into a boxing gym before, there's no need to worry about gear—loaner gloves and hand wraps are provided, so you just need to show up.

The second half shifts to a wellness conversation led by Sam Amoroso, a Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach and founder of Root & Nurture. She'll be speaking about strength and nurturing body, mind, and spirit, so the day moves from the physical work of the bag to a more reflective conversation about well-being.

It's a three-hour window that lets you try out boxing in a beginner-friendly setting and then sit in on a talk about wellness, all in the same afternoon. Admission is $10, and it runs from 1 PM to 4 PM at the Austin Women's Boxing Club, 2919 Menchaca Rd., Suite 210, Austin, TX 78704.
