Employing a fitness program using pure methods of boxing builds stamina while it firms and conditions the body. What has attracted children, women and men to a boxing training program is the way it develops body strength, stamina and cardio and muscular endurance while releasing stress. The boxer training program at Fight Club encompasses the fundamentals of boxing where the trainee learns proper stance, footwork, punching combinations and proper executions. Dance like a butterfly and sting like a bee, as former boxing king Muhammad Ali would have it. Trainees also learn to hit the heavy bag, speed bag, jump rope and get in the ring with an instructor to work on punch mits. It inculcates self-defense while improving self-confidence.
Boys just want to be boys but sometimes getting that straight punch on the nose must be done professionally. Seven-year-old Juancho Cobar beamed confidently about how he would challenge bullies to "give me your best shot" where he is ready to give the straight, jab and hook. Cobar also plays soccer.

Membership fees come at P1,000 for adults and P500 for children while there are monthly and per session program rates.
