Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008

Hi guys and girls,

Just a quick question for you all – we’re always looking to improve The Boxing Clinic website and we were wondering if there’s anything you’d like to see on it.

We’ve just added this brand new Blog where we’ll be keeping you up-to-date more regularly but maybe you’d be interested in a Forum where you can swap stories and get fitness tips?

Please give us your feedback via a comment below – Yes or No to a Clinic forum?

Looking forward to hearing from you!
