In December 2021, the project "Free general physical training with boxing elements for children" supported by Vilnius City Municipality ended. Children aged 3 to 6 years old, together with their parents, had a great time participating in boxing and fitness classes at the City Boxing Sports Club. The training took place on 8 Sundays.In total we had over 60 participants. We noticed a great involvement of both children and their parents in the tasks assigned by the coach. These sessions showed the children's parents that boxing training is also suitable for young children. Parents appreciated the initiative and mentioned that their children were looking forward to Sunday's training. They were also calmer after the sessions. Older children gained confidence. All parents and children improved their physical skills such as coordination, balance, strength and agility. Parents also reported an improvement in their relationship with their child. Parents and children expressed a strong desire to continue the activities.
