Box2Burn - Boxing Gym Chelmsford - Chelmsford

At Independence Project we support adults and children with Autism and learning disabilities. Finding meaningful fitness activities for them in the community is really challenging! Often we have found venues that are not inclusive or accepting of the range of needs we support. The team at Longs ABC and Box2Burn could not make us feel more welcome and at home! They adapt the sessions to cater for everyone’s needs whilst also making them incredibly fun and engaging. Our members who traditionally find exercise challenging and low on their priorities have fell in love with the boxing sessions! We have seen a huge improvement with our members confidence, fitness and coordination levels. The team has a real passion and drive to support people with special needs. We can’t thank you all enough!

Billy is a fantastic coach and has supported a few of my children with additional needs. My daughter loves her boxing sessions and it has helped her gain so many skills as well as building her confidence. I know she is well looked after by Billy and the rest of the Box2Burn family. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to encourage their child to take up a new sport and develop life skills. It’s clear to see this gym care very much about their members and the community. Well done Billy and the rest of the team.

Here for the first time with my son, who's 10. Little nervous to start. But Billy and the team made him feel comfortable by spending some 1 2 1 time with him to get him settled then eased him into the class. Brilliant tactics worked perfectly. The team are very on the ball. Great skills and training knowledge. Lots of kids here to take part and learn. We are at the juniors session. Different ages working in different parts of the gym. Can't wait to come back.

Thank you everyone

My boys absolutely love attending their boxing sessions. There is a real family spirit and the boys always come out happy. I did have to leave the gym for sometime due to work commitments but after trying out another gym closer to home it just didn’t compare to the team here. When I told my boy he could come back here he said ‘it’s the best day in his life’ says it all really. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

If you’re even a little bit interested in boxing for fitness or to get into it and actually fight someone I urge you to give Box 2 Burn a try.

After having done some boxing drills many years ago when I did boot camps in Liverpool I knew it was something I enjoyed and was keen to explore once I’d moved to Essex. However most places only take you on if you intend to fight.

Box2Burn offer both.
You can train to fight or you can train for fitness and hone technique. You may choose to fight or spar at a later date once you get into it but there is absolutely no pressure.

I’ll be honest I was nervous at first… of course it’s a little intimidating going to an established boxing gym.
I soon found there was absolutely no reason to be. As hard as they seem the staff are lovely and really welcoming making you feel comfortable at the gym.
You’ll even get a few shouts of encouragement if you’re in there and doing a good job.

I started on a trial boxing PT session with Matt “the Nose” Cunningham and have been going twice a week ever since.
They do boxing workshop sessions in the evening for all ages and abilities, something that I’m keen to explore in the future.
The Pt sessions consist of padwork and technique followed by a blitzing session that may or may not have you begging for mercy by the end of it!

I’ve got the bug a little bit now and considering taking the leap into sparring just to see what it’s like and put what I’ve learned into practice.

If you’re thinking of a different approach to fitness or even just wanting to give boxing a go I urge you to check out Box 2 Burn or Matt’s PT sessions to see what they have got to offer.

I might catch you in the ring one day.

I cannot thank Box 2 Burn and the team enough for how welcome they have made my daughter and I feel. We were looking for a club to build further fitness and confidence and had a try with the team after reading great reviews. I’m so glad we did! 3 weeks in and my daughter is loving it! They’ve made her feel so welcome, a real family feel. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a great club, friendly atmosphere and fantastic coaches and staff. Thank you!

An incredible gym that actually teaches you to box rather than just boxercise. I truly believe that every coach wanted me to be the best that I can be. So a huge shout-out to Billy Long, Max, Kevin, Matt (such a great guy), and of course, the one and only Scott. Scott is a great coach, and his 1-2-1 sessions not only helped my boxing but also built my confidence in and out of the gym. Big love for this gym and these coaches.
