ok, i consider myself (along with almost anyone who has stepped in the ring with me) to be a pretty good boxer... im trying to pass this trait on to my little ones, so they can learn self defense.. i have a 2 yr old boy and girl.. my question is, what is the best way to start them off?

best thing to do...let them put on some gloves and beat on u (or some mitts). make it fun. reward their activity with praise...especially when they get it right. also...teach/add/correct as u go.
first thing to teach.... stance hand placement how to move(footwork) jab cross left hook (uppercuts are advanced punches i'd save them for last) slips rolls blocks combination punching don't try to do it all at once. treat it like a work of art. start with the base and just build on it as u go. if u notice anything blatantly wrong, fix it. don't let them develop bad habits. |
