Learning the Basics

There are a few basic punches in boxing. The jab, right cross, hooks, and uppercuts are the most essential. In this video, the 6 year old Fillmore Boxing Club boxer is learning the basic punches by working with the coach on the focus pads. In between some of the punch combinations the coach is introducing the idea of defense and footwork to the young boxer, but the main idea is to get the youngster to learn the punches.
