Boxing gym signs first female pro boxer

-

Having started Real Boxing Only gym in 2018, Michelle Kuehn has invested a lot of her efforts into making the sport of boxing more accessible to females — especially in the Middle East. She boasts a 45 per cent female clientele, with 50 per cent of her coaches being female. She has ladies only classes four times a week and they are fully booked. Her ambition is simply because she believes boxing is for everyone, no matter gender or age and the main reason behind her recent move — getting her boxing manager’s license.

Kim ‘Showtime’ Shannon, started training at Real Boxing Only gym over a year-and-ahalf ago, and as a very talented former Team GB boxer — she has been imparting her knowledge to hundreds of members.
