Why BoxDichFit

No luxury. No show.
No egos.

You walk in after a long day and walk out an hour later: drenched, proud and with a clear head. We do have mirrors and music, but they support you in the background instead of being the show. The focus is on you.

Finally, someone sees you

No disappearing in the crowd. Your coach knows your name, your level and your goals and corrects you personally in every class.

A class with us

60 minutes.
Everything in it.

Fitness boxing is a mix of boxing technique, functional training and HIIT. Every class is different, but the structure stays the same: science-based and built on the Swiss Boxing standard. A typical hour looks like this:

10MIN

Warm-up & footwork

Skipping rope, footwork, mobility. Heart rate up, head clear.

15MIN

Technique

Stance, punches, defence and combinations. Your coach corrects you personally.

20MIN

Pads & bag

Rounds like in real boxing: on the bag or on pads with a partner and coach.

10MIN

Conditioning & strength

Intervals, medicine ball and core. This is where you build the engine for three-minute rounds.

5MIN

Finisher & cool-down

One last all-out round, then wind down. And fist-bumps.

Typical structure. Exercises and intensity are adapted to your level.

Picture this

Your first
8 weeks.

Class 1

You're in.

The nerves are gone after ten minutes. You learn stance, jab and cross, sweat like you haven't in ages and leave with a grin.

Week 2–3

It clicks.

Your first combinations land. The stairs to the office feel easier, and your head is clearer in the evening.

Week 4–6

You get fast.

On the pads you react before you think. Three minutes no longer feel endless. People in class know your name.

Week 8

People ask what you're doing.

More energy, more calm under pressure, better posture. You no longer train because you have to, but because you want to.

Typical progress with 2–3 classes per week. How fast it goes is up to you.

„I've been coming to Box Dich Fit for a few months now, and I couldn't recommend it more highly. My original plan was to try a few different boxing gyms before deciding where to join, but after just one class, I knew this was the one.“

„Being a total beginner myself, Chris has been immensely helpful and patient to introduce me to boxing and always paying close attention, providing detailed feedback and guidance to each participant. Also a good combination of boxing, conditioning and endurance in small groups.“

„A perfect mix of getting fit and learning or improving boxing skills. The sessions are fun, challenging, and varied, and the small group size is a big plus. Trainer Chris pays close attention to technique and gives personal feedback when needed. It's the perfect way to unwind after work.“

FAQ

Good to know.

Is BoxDichFit a boxing club?

We are a boxing gym with a real club feel: regular groups, familiar faces and coaches who know you. The focus is on fitness boxing and technique built on the Swiss Boxing standard, not on competition. If you are ambitious, we will push you further.

Is boxing suitable for beginners? Do I need to be fit?

No. Most of our members started from zero. Every exercise can be scaled, and you set your own pace. If you have boxed before, you get more demanding combinations.

Will I get hit? Is there sparring?

Nobody hits you in class. You work on pads, on the bag and with partner drills. Depending on the group, we sometimes add an optional bonus round after class: playful, controlled sparring or explosive training. Join if you want to, it is never a must.

Can I train for competition with you?

Yes. Christopher is a trained competition coach and develops ambitious boxers in technique, conditioning and tactics. If you want, he will prepare you all the way to your first amateur bout, for example with additional personal training.

Are classes in English?

Yes. We coach in English and German, depending on who is in the group. Our team also speaks French, Spanish and Italian. Many of our members are internationals living in Zurich.

Can boxing help me lose weight?

Boxing combines endurance, strength and high-intensity intervals (HIIT) and burns a lot of energy. Many members join for exactly that reason. How fast your body changes also depends on nutrition, sleep and consistency. If you like, we support you with personal training and a nutrition strategy.

Is boxing for women too?

Absolutely. Women and men train together, everyone at their own level. Many women value exactly this friendly, ego-free atmosphere.

How much does it cost?

Your first trial class is free. Afterwards we show you the memberships and find out together what fits you, no sales pressure.

How often should I train?

For noticeable progress we recommend 2–3 classes per week. With a membership you can join all 5 weekly classes.

What should I bring?

Sportswear, clean indoor shoes and a water bottle. We have gloves and hand wraps for you. You are welcome to bring your own.

Are there showers?

No. Most people train in the evening and shower at home afterwards.
