About Action Boxing & Fitness
Welcome to Action Boxing & Fitness. Action is a REAL boxing gym offering REAL boxing training to the general public.
Action Boxing & Fitness Description
We offer Authentic boxing training in the forms of non-contact classes, partner work classes involving defence work, Personal or Small Group Training, Sports Team Sessions and Training to compete.
The Owners & Trainers have experience in competitive boxing and have been involved in boxing for over 15 years. As well as having mainstream qualifications under Fitness Australia.
Action boxing & fitness is proud of the fact that we have attracted a very down to earth (maybe because there's no mirrors in here : ) and friendly bunch of clients that train hard but well together in a supportive environment.
Sessions involve one on one focus pad work with a trainer (not with class participants that may not have the skills to provide you with a good work out) and bag work. As well as including equipment such as kick pads, medicine balls, skipping ropes, kettle bells, power bags, battle ropes and more. . .
The sessions are focused on using major muscle groups and high intensity training methods like interval & sprint training with minimal rests to get the most out of your training. But of course they can be toned down to suit beginners. . . We are very user friendly ;)
We hope you come in one day so you can see this all for yourself : )

вђЗпЄП5-Day Free Pass & Boxing Introduction Session рЯСК Knock knockвА¶.. Who's there? Our new timetable that's who.
Our new timetable gives you even more chances to experience our Boxing Fitness Classes. We started our boxing fitness class way back in 2003, when mobile phones were as large as house bricks, and Facebook hadn't started yet!!
... Our Boxing fitness classes are the product of over 20 years of boxing experience, we've shed blood, sweat, blood, blood & tears to learn the skills that we teach you. We believe that in a boxing class, you should be taught correct punch technique, footwork & punching combinations that are used in the battles of boxing. We don't believe in punching the bag or pads in a non-boxing way, such as throwing 20 left hooks than 20 right hooks. That's not boxing, that's justвА¶вА¶
If you're interested in having an awesome boxing work-out using proper boxing, in a safe, no-contact & supportive environment then try our boxing fitness classes.
If you're new to Action then grab a Free 5-Day / introduction boxing session pass. Check the link below for full details, passes start Monday. рЯСКвђЗпЄПрЯСКвђЗпЄПрЯСКвђЗпЄПрЯСКвђЗпЄПр ЯСКвђЗпЄПрЯСКвђЗпЄПрЯСКвђЗпЄПрЯСКвђЗпЄПр ЯСКвђЗпЄПрЯСКвђЗпЄП

As most of us know, today is International Women's Day, so what better day for me to tell you all, how Jackie Smallcombe, started Action Boxing & Fitness way back in 2003.
Jackie had a love for boxing which was founded, when joined the local boxing gym to loose a lot of weight as Jackie was not happy with her health & fitness at that stage of her life. So using her amazing determination, focus, & coached by a extremely dedicated trainer ( Ian Batty) Jackie Lost weight, incr...eased her fitness to a remarkable level. So remarkable that Jackie would spar 10 x 3 minute rounds, three times a week, with a male sparing partner, as a result she more often or not hard big dark circles ( Black eyes) When Jackie was boxing training & competing, women boxers were very rare, this was partly due to the fact that female boxing was banned in N.S.W. But then the gym closed:( which caused a dilemma until Jackie came up with the crazy idea of opening her own gym!!
Action was born in a big tin shed at the Newcastle Showgrounds, the rent was cheap, the roof only leaked when it rained, it was only hot when it was summer, and we only had to move out once a year when the show was on. Yep!! that is rite, we packed up the whole gym & moved it next door for storage, thanks to loyal gym members, and friends we were able to get this done with only a few swear words. But that was the easy part really, Jackie convincing the general public that a female could own & run a boxing gym took some, time. I remember Jackie being asked in a radio interview, what her role was at the gym..... Before Jackie could reply the peanut said...... You must work in the office!! So early on gaining the respect from the male gender was hard, but through hard work, determination & not listening to doubters, Jackie built a business which turns 13 in August this year :)
I just wanted to share this story of Jackies on this day, that we are celebrating women!! I that you all appreciate the story of Action Boxing & Fitness.
Kind Regards Brad
P:s I'm sorry for the quality of Jackie's boxing photo, but its a photo off Jackie's V.H.S recording of one of her fights. That's rite V.H.S
