Real Boxing & Kickboxing, Taught Properly.
Learn real skills in small, focused classes — taught clearly, safely and without ego so you always know what you’re doing.
A boxing studio built for real people, not fighters only.
The MAW Studios is a small, independent space in Hackney Wick. We teach boxing and kickboxing the way they should feel — technical, focused and safe — without the ego or chaos of a big-box gym. You’ll train in small groups, learn proper form, and progress at a pace that fits around work, family and real life.
Expert, safe training in a community studio.
Every session at The MAW Studios is designed so you feel looked after, challenged and clear on what you’re learning — whether you’re brand new or building on years of training.
Real boxing, without the ego.
We teach fundamentals properly — stance, guard, footwork, punches, defence — then layer combinations and padwork so you feel in control, not lost.
Coaching that meets you where you are.
Coaches know your name, injuries and goals. You’ll always have options to scale intensity up or down, with clear guidance on what to focus on next.
Pick the path that fits your life.
Start with a free class, then move into regular training that works around work, childcare and everything else.
