South Moreton Boxing Club

Two great new classes start this week. Trim Trail with Terry at 7pm Thursday and Kettlercise with Karen on Friday at 6pm.

Trim Trail is a two mile run through some beautiful countryside around the club, but with about 10 stop off points for various exercises. Kettlercise is a Kettle Bell based class. Both classes are suitable for all fitness levels.

We are now running 25 classes a week with great variety and fantastic instructors, see Class Timetable on the website for more details.

The Club will be holding an exhibition as part of the Artweeks event in Oxfordshire from 5th – 27th May. Club member and local artist Grant Waters will be exhibiting numerous oil paintings he has done of the club, the boxers, shows and events over the past year. You can see some of Grants work at www.grantsartwork.co.uk and the Artweeks link is www.artweeks.org/festival/2012/in-u744n2688
