Exciting news here at GBDB this week, with the introduction of our first official GBDB wheelchair workouts.
The workouts will be taken by one of our inspiring lead coaches, Luiz Faye. The classes will be running every Wednesday at 17:30-18:30 via Zoom. The classes will be offering an accessible seated fitness program from the comfort of your own home, and suitable for most people unable to participate in boxing from a standing position. The classes are designed to incorporate fitness, strength, and conditioning; paying particular attention to the transfer of functional skills (of adaptive boxing) to increase core stability, mobility and overall upper body strength. Although all our sessions feature an element of adaptive boxing, experience is not necessary.
