Boxing Lessons

Today I had my first boxing lesson and here are few things I learned.

                -Protect your face
                -Never leave yourself open
                -Follow through
                -Keep your eyes on your opponent
                -Proper form first, know the rules before you break them
                -A dodge is better than a block
                -Stay low and centered, balance is everything
                -Power comes from the legs and hips, not the arms or shoulders
                -Thai boxing is a better cardio workout
                -Krav Maga is the best self-defense out there, they’ll teach you dirty pool
                -Read the schedule with more care. I thought I was going to KICKboxing class.

Despite my wishful thinking it won’t be my last boxing lesson.
