Boxing/ Kick Boxing

I want to get into this sport and compete and such. But i cannot find a boxing ring anywhere. Does anyone know of any decent ones in the Oakville/ Sauga area?

Its called Yellow pages and look up Kick boxing or boxing.
Twin dragon is good and price is fair for taking Kung Fu and kick boxing.

There are alot of boxing clubs around the GTA

Tae kwan do is lots of kicking, but not really boxing. Muay thai is more knees punches kicks, but hard to find a good place.

Off topic, but did anyone else watch the UFC last night? We did, and it was pretty good, but the Liddell match stopage was kinda off. Allthough I suppose he could have had problems seeing, but he looked right at the ref when he said it. So Liddell is still champ.

Sorry, don't know any boxing place is that area or in any area.

But this is off topic suggestion and don't know if you have done this yet. You should not limit yourself to just boxing/kickboxing. My advice is to go and try difference gyms of difference styles around your area and see if it fits what you like. Most places that are reputable will give you one month free membership. As well, look at the size of the place, demographics of the students and the number of students. The last thing you want is to be stuck in a style you don't like and on top of that, one that goes belly up.
It took me almost a year and a half to find the style and place that I was comfortable with. And I have been with the same master for almost 10 years...so shopping around paid off for me.


Good luck in your search
