Love this kid! What a girl :)

This popped up on my timeline this morning, right before I stepped in to host my first ever Women's Boxing and Well-being Workshop day. To think that this was only two years ago is absolutely incredible.
Rewind 2 years ago today and we had no idea where we were going, we didn't have a new unit, we just knew that we had to get out by end of the year as we could not afford the rent price increase that was being proposed. We had no idea this sign was being erected, we arrived e...arly at work one Friday to find it being fitted, we hadn't planned to tell anyone about our move until we had a unit secured and suddenly we had no choice. Everything just seemed so out of our control and it would have been much easier to just pack it in and give up.
I am so, so eternally grateful that we didn't. We cried, dug deep, bit down on our hypothetical gum shields and headed into battle. It was show time.
And here we are. 2 years later. Stronger, wiser and improved.
Growth is painful, change is laborious and adversity is exhausting but perseverance is powerful. The message of today's workshop was about strength and recognising our strengths. For this to appear right before we started today's workshop was the reaffirmation I needed that adversity, when harnessed can breed strength and resilience.
Thank you to each and every one of you who has stood in our corner and supported us over the years <3 Combat is not an individual encounter - it's a true team effort.

Congratulations to NewLife Ladies Intern Coach Annabel who successfully designed and delivered her first full class today 🙌👊 Amazing work. It's an incredibly daunting thing to do and more difficult than it looks. Well done Annabel! Amazing work over the last six weeks.

Incase you couldn't find us... 😂

That's Monday completed!

Slightly off topic but such an important message ❤️ Mandy always posts every month in the first to remind us to check, worth following, if like me you are a little forgetful ☑️👍 ps. She specialises in providing for ladies who are post surgery.

Ladies Boxing and Kickboxing every Monday, Thursday and Saturday 🥊 Everyone welcome. £6 per session.

Martial Arts & Wellbeing have a long standing heritage and for good reason. Training promotes resilience, it teaches us we are not made of glass, it affords us a platform to step out side of our comfort zone whilst remaining in a safe environment, it tests our integrity and perhaps most importantly - it feels good. To 'fight' is natural response, which we often do not have a structured outlet & productive outlet for.
Boxing is a fantastic way to get out of your head and back... into your body. Boxing allows for a a series of short & controlled stimulation's of your Flight or Fight emotional system which in turn helps to channel stress hormones in a productive manner. We need stress hormones to keep us safe, equally we need a safe outlet.
We will be talking about the facts of life. It's not always pretty, nor calm and collected. Sometimes you need to 'fight' and in that case we need to know how to 'fight'.
As always we welcome you with out judgement. At NewLife we are known to be #morethanateam.

What makes you feel strong?
This workshop is an opportunity to learn new skills and strategies, so you can feel stronger both physically and mentally – so when life gets tough, you can still “come out swinging“! (yup - we do love a good boxing pun!)
Together as a group, we will learn the boxing ritual of wrapping hands and the foundations of boxing techniques using foot work and focus pads. This is suitable for complete beginners and all levels of fitness as there is no sparr...

It's time to say goodbye...to single use plastic bottles! We are challenging everyone, including ourselves, to remove single use bottles from the gym by 1st of August 2018.
We reckon we can do it! Help us get there by bringing along a reusable bottle and take advantage of the mains water available to refill!
Lost your water bottle? Check out the lost and found located in the changing room :) There are a good few in there.
... In the last year we have replaced paper towels with washable hand towels, replaced our strip lights to low usage LED lights, done away with providing bottled water instead providing access to our fully fitted kitchen to refill and all heating is provided by our eco friendly boiler.
Thank you everyone!

We have a wee group available for all of our students to join for updates and occasional patter.

Ladies Kickboxing tonight at 6pm. All levels of experience and fitness welcome!

Started off in October going to ladies boxing on a Saturday morning for a change from running - since then Jill, Davey and Jamie have built up my confidence and technique far enough to attend all the boxing and kickboxing mixed classes and start sparring. I'm the fittest I've been in years and would thoroughly recommend the community spirit in the gym as an incentive for coming along if you're not sure if ladies boxing is for you. Since I started in October loads of girls have came in to try the boxing, unsure whether it was for them and they haven't looked back since. Everyone's there to support each other and we all encourage each other to push ourselves each class. I'd definitely say a warm welcome is guaranteed at Newlife Ladies. It's been a total fitness game changer for me from a personal, social and physical point of view. Can't thank the team at Newlife and boxing girls enough for the weekly sessions of sweaty banter.

Really welcoming atmosphere. Great for someone like me returning to exercise where confidence is a bit low. I left after a 121 session with Jill feeling on top of the world. Can't wait for next time. I would recommend by his gym without hesitation.

Really can't recommend this gym enough, and I would encourage anyone to come along. The owners David and Jill are extremely welcoming and friendly, they encourage you to try to new things and provide a clean and safe environment to train in. I went along to the ladies classes wanting to learn a bit of boxing and now I'm totally addicted, going to mixed classes and starting to try my hand at jiujitsu. All the members are very friendly, and the classes cater to all ranges of experiences. Best thing I ever did was join up!

Jill is amazing! All you have to do is read my blog posts to see how I feel about New Life. I have never been in a more supportive or comfortable fitness environment before. I only needed a few of sessions with Jill to find my fitness/running stride again and get back to training! Awesome!!!!!

I would highly recommend this gym to all women, I've never been in a gym before and jill made me feel so welcome and comfortable, all the ladies at the gym are all extremely nice and helpful.

I started training with Jill a year ago and she is a fantastic trainer. She is so encouraging and patient as well as being a great laugh and really supportive. The gym has got such a friendly feel and the women's classes and PT sessions with Jill are what I look forward to every week now - I have really fallen in love with boxing and met some really lovely people.

I love the classes here! I started going in April and have been hooked ever since! Everyone in all the classes are so welcoming and it’s a really supportive environment. There are a wide range of classes for complete beginners to people with experience. Jill is so supportive, she really encourages you and helps build your confidence, so you can reach your goals. She’s a great coach and I love how she always breaks down everything we do in class. You never feel lost or overwhelmed when learning combinations.



I encourage any ladies out there looking for a new class to come along and JUST TRY IT! The first class can seem tough because you’re in a new place, meeting new people and challenging your body, but once you do it you realise it's really simple. New Life Ladies is a fun and supportive gym! I always leave class feeling rewarded :D

Great first class tonight at new life ladies. Jill was great and very welcoming! Can't wait to come again ����

Finding a new place to train can very daunting but I have to say that the welcome I received at my first ladies class was extremely encouraging and I quickly built up the confidence to join the mixed classes. David and Jill are super supportive and enabled me to step out my comfort zone and push myself that little bit further. The ladies classes are amazing and all coaches ensure that the needs of everyone in the group are met, we are a bit of rogue bunch, all ages, diff fitness levels but everyone encourages each other and there is a real community spirit in the gym! If you have been thinking about trying out a class, time to do it!

Can't recommend New Life Ladies highly enough! I started with the Ladies Boxing classes last October and haven't looked back since. I can honestly say I've enjoyed every class I've gone to. There's a very inclusive atmosphere and everyone's welcome, don't be worried that you're not fit enough or might feel out of place in a 'boxing' gym. Give it a go!
