Youth on a journey
Join us for an exciting journey where exercise meets the art of boxing, designed to empower and guide youth through their most crucial chapter of life. In this unique program, we not only focus on sweating it out, but we also create a safe space for healing and understanding. Through engaging conversations in healing circles, we explore the fascinating connection between the brain, body, and how youth intend to shape their life now, and then after graduation.
Educators — don’t miss out on this incredible opportunity to help youth level up and gain deeper awareness of their well-being. Be the educator everyone remembers, by helping youth uncover their limitless potential.
Don’t Box It Up Warriors Program is more than just a product or a program. It’s a powerful metaphor that reflects our emotional state and the concept of holding things in. We all have those moments when we bottle up our feelings, but it’s time to let them out and embrace the freedom that comes with it.
Are you ready to unleash your full potential, both mentally and physically?
The three steps
Step 1 — Activating the brain’s natural elements
Journey into the powerful connection between boxing and our emotional state. Discover how this physical activity can release serotonin, boost your mood, and help you find balance in your life. The program empowers you to journey deep within, helping to untangle those bush fires that clog up the neuro pathways.
Step 2 — Creating safety
Creating safety is essential for youth to feel comfortable to open up to peers and family members. Step two focuses on establishing a safe space where youth’s voices are empowered and valued. Providing a non-confrontational environment allows for meaningful connections and authentic discussions.
Step 3 — Healing circle: a circle for youth
“Circles draw on the life experiences of all the participants to understand the problem at hand and to devise workable solutions.” — Madrona and Mainguy (2014)
Traditional yarning circles, healing circles and peacemaker circles have been a traditional yarning tool amongst First Nations Australians for 60,000 years. The circles were, and still are, used to bring together tribes, clans, or people who want to talk about relevant issues of importance. Step 3 provides a space where students can build the necessary pathways in the brain, working to enhance feelings of happiness and well-being which welcomes healing from the inside out.
