How Boxercise Began
Boxercise started in the UK in 1992, created by boxing coach Andy Wake.
His original Boxercise company took the fitness world by storm, gaining over 1.2 million participants in the UK throughout the nineties.
The concept became popular worldwide as a generic fitness class and also with personal trainers who started to use padwork to train their clients.
Both of which we do today at Village Gym Cheadle.
