Beginner guide
Start with a conversation
Before training, explain what you want from the session and mention any injuries, concerns or relevant experience. A good coach will use that information to set the pace rather than assuming everyone needs the same workout.
Beginner guide
Learn a small number of useful basics
A beginner session may cover a stance, guard, a few punches and simple footwork. You might then use pads or controlled rounds to put those basics into practice.
Beginner guide
Finish with clarity for next time
After the session, you should understand what you did, what felt good and what to revisit next time. You do not need to decide on a long package before experiencing the first session.
Key points
- Talk through your goal first.
- Expect a warm-up, basics and controlled drills.
