Rockback. Slip. Pivot Out.
Three movements that have to work together.

This week at Santa Cruz Boxing, we’re breaking the sequence down against the classic 1–2–3:

→ Rock back to create space.
→ Step and slip your head off the line.
→ Pivot out and change the angle.

In the gym, we’ll be working on the part a graphic can’t teach: timing, distance, and making those movements connect smoothly.

We’re in your corner. 🥊

This week at Santa Cruz Boxing, we’re working on:

→ ROCKBACK.
→ SLIP.
→ PIVOT OUT.

It’s defense with a purpose: not just avoiding what’s coming, but creating a better angle for what comes next.

We’ll be breaking it down step by step this week.

See you at the gym.
We’re in your corner. 🥊

What are you really looking for when you start boxing?

Maybe it’s not just a workout.

Maybe it’s learning a real skill. Feeling stronger in your body. Trusting yourself a little more. Finding out what you can do when you keep showing up.

That’s what we want training at Santa Cruz Boxing to give you: real coaching, real boxing, and progress you can actually feel.

You don’t have to walk through the door already confident.

The hardest part might just be walking through it.

We’re in your corner.

The highlight is the punch. 🥊

The work behind it looks more like this:

» A coach watching closely.
» A correction between reps.
» Trying it again.
» Training with someone who can see the small things you can’t always feel yet.

That's a big part of learning to box—and you don't need to arrive already knowing how to do any of it.

At Santa Cruz Boxing, that's what we're here for, one piece at a time.
We're in your corner.

"Get lower" sounds like good boxing advice.

Sometimes it is. Sometimes it's the thing making your movement harder.

The goal isn't to sink as low as possible. It's to find the position where you're balanced, relaxed, and ready to move.

That's the kind of detail we work on at Santa Cruz Boxing: not just what to do, but why it works—and how to make it work for you.

New to boxing? You're not expected to walk in already knowing this.
That's what we're here for.

We're in your corner.

Setting TRAPS? More like setting NAPS. 🥊💤

This week at Santa Cruz Boxing, we’re working on strategy, reactions, and setting traps.

Some of us are taking recovery just as seriously.

A little gym life between the rounds.

Throw the same combination enough times and your opponent starts to expect it.
Then you change it.

🥊 1, 1, 2 → 1, 3, 2
🥊 2, 3, 2 → 2, 5, 2

You’re creating a pattern, watching the reaction, and then using that reaction against them.

Boxing isn’t always about being faster or stronger. Sometimes, being clever is better.

This week at Santa Cruz Boxing, we’re working on setting traps.

Today was Marta Bell’s Celebration of Life at the Dream Inn.

Mike and Marta spent 34 of their 48 years together living on a boat in the San Francisco Harbor, so the view of our beautiful coastline in the background, with sea lions swimming and birds diving, seemed quite appropriate.

It was lovely to see everyone who came to celebrate this amazing woman. There were many who had a lot to say, but if I could sum it up in three words, they would be:

Joy. Love. Momma Bear.

We love you more, Marta... you will be missed. ❤️
