Our boxing program has grown as we have been given the opportunity to partner with new schools and expand our in-school mentoring program. As a result, our boxing program attendance has doubled in the past two months. In the month of January, participants set goals for themselves which will help foster discipline and perseverance.  We have been focusing on teaching basic breathing techniques to help them relax and control themselves in the ring. They were also taught that these same techniques can be applied outside of the ring when they are in difficult life situations.
