MITTWORKS
For women, boxing is not just a highly effective workout but a means to self-discovery, confidence and growth. Yet traditional boxing gyms are often male-dominated, intimidating and rarely cater to women’s needs.
Most women who want to learn boxing therefore never start. Not because it’s wrong for them but because they can’t find the right place to begin. Mittworks is that place.
Teaching out of Brave Boxing Club Berlin, home to Women's World Featherweight Champion, Nina Meinke, Mittworks provides a safe, professional and supportive space for women to discover boxing.
FUNDAMENTALS & FITNESS
Always wanted to start boxing …
… but don’t feel fit enough, feel nervous about stepping into a boxing gym or worry you won’t belong. Maybe you tried once but the class was more bootcamp than boxing — no technique, no progression.
You’re not alone. That’s why we created Fundamentals & Fitness — a six-week program for women that turns your curiosity into capability. We meet you where you are and build the skills and conditioning to make you look, feel and move like a boxer.
No pressure, no sparring, no egos. Just a clear path from curious to capable.
THE SIX-WEEK PROGRAM
A clear path from curious to capable
Over six weeks, or twelve sessions, you’ll train like a real boxer. You’ll follow a structured program that teaches you real boxing techniques along with boxing-specific workouts that will get you lean, strong and fit. Each week builds on the last.
WEEK ONE
Move like a boxer
WEEK TWO
Punch like a boxer
Punching is about body mechanics not strength. In week two, you'll learn how your feet, hips, core and shoulders work together to transfer power and build combinations that flow.
WEEK THREE
Protect yourself
Good defense builds confidence and composure. In week three, you’ll learn that defense is not just about not getting hit - it's about positioning, balance and being ready to respond.
WEEK FOUR
Manage distance
Boxing at different ranges requires different stances and punches. In week four, you'll learn how to control distance, when to step in, when to step out and how to generate power at close range.
WEEK FIVE
Respond, not react
Boxing trains your body and mind. Building on your defense, you’ll learn to spot openings and respond, not just throw punches for their own sake. Evasive moves like feints, level changes and head movement are introduced.
WEEK SIX
Putting it all together
In the final week, everything comes together - footwork, punches, defense and counters. You develop effective combinations that flow. Shadowboxing and visualisation are used to sharpen your skills and practice moving with intent.
WHO THIS IS FOR
This program is for women who:
-
Have little or no experience of boxing
Want to learn boxing properly, not fix bad habits later
-
Prefer structured, progressive coaching to random workouts
Boxing changes more than how you look
It changes how you feel and move. With time, you’ll move with the ease of someone who knows what she’s capable of. In addition to confidence, boxing also builds discipline, focus and resilience — qualities that extend far beyond the gym.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Things women always ask us
Do I need to be fit before starting?
No. The sessions are designed to build your fitness alongside your skills.
Is there any sparring?
No. The focus is entirely on technique and developing your skills in a controlled environment.
I’ve never boxed before. Is that OK?
Yes. The program is designed with beginners in mind. You'll learn correct skills from the ground up at a pace that suits you.
Can I train once a week instead of twice?
Yes. Two sessions a week over six weeks is the pace that delivers the best results, but the program adapts if once a week suits your schedule better — you’ll just take twelve weeks instead of six to get there.
What if I don’t have a training partner?
No problem. You can train one-to-one or we'll try to pair you up with a partner or place you in a small group.
What should I bring?
Comfortable training clothes, a towel and a bottle of water. Gloves are provided. We’ll advise you if you prefer to buy your own.
