Boxing sessions with students at South Oakleigh Secondary College

In April I took 40 year 10 boys through a boxing session, although it was quite a challenge at some stages, have you ever tried to control 40 teenage boys? It was like trying to herd cats...lol...but in saying that it was also quite rewarding. As I got to see some of the boys really showcase their boxing skills. 

A week later, just like the boys the year 10 girls also had a boxing session. Unlike the boys, there was no herding of cats or applying discipline, rather I saw focus, determination and motivation. I was also told that some of the girls who participated in the boxing session did not usually participate in any sports. 

Overall, I was humbled and privileged to be asked to teach these classes. Thank you South Oakleigh Secondary College. 

If you are interested in running a session similar to this at your school, contact Vickie at Thelo.
