Frequently asked questions:
Fitness boxing
Is fitness boxing dangerous or is there a risk of injury?
No! Fitness boxing is taught as a holistic fitness training program. There are no hits to the body or the head in any way. During training, you hit the punching bag or claws.
What do I need to bring to training?
Comfortable workout clothes and indoor sports shoes. Boxing gloves are available for use on site if needed. For reasons of hygiene, however, I recommend you sooner or later buy your own boxing gloves, which you can buy on site at a cost of CHF 90. You need your own bandages for hygiene reasons and can buy them on site.
I am not athletic. Can I still go fitness boxing?
Yes! The offer is for everyone, regardless of the individual fitness level.
I have physical complaints. Can I still participate?
Your health is important. If you have any concerns, feel free to contact me in advance and we can discuss this together.

Frequently asked questions:
Mental training
How long does a 1:1 mental training take?
A single lesson usually lasts for about 60 minutes, sometimes 5-10 minutes longer. A mental training workshop in a group lasts for at least 2 hours.
How often should I come to mental training?
Depending on your individual goal, a short-term intervention (1-2 times) can be sufficient. To address a more complex issue, I recommend to plan session for a period of about 3-5 months. The number and frequency of sessions is individual, we will define this together.

I am an athlete and have a coach. Is it still worth doing mental training?
While your coach specializes in the technical execution of your sport, as a mental coach I work with your mental state and therefore independently of your sport. I support you in mental challenges. Possible topics: Competition preparation, attention regulation, visualization techniques, relaxation exercises.
