01 THE APPROACH
TRAINING WITH YOUR LIFE IN MINDYOUR GOALS
COME FIRST
You decide what you want to achieve.
We build the training around you.
I believe training like a fighter can help you live better. Boxing gives us a way to practise focus, make decisions under pressure and work through challenges. We combine it with strength, conditioning and recovery in a plan shaped by your goals.
Build a fighter’s foundation
Learn the craft of boxing. Develop your strength, conditioning and ability to keep working when it gets challenging.
Make the work fit your life
Training, recovery, work and personal life all affect each other. We look at the whole picture and adjust as we go.

MY EXPERIENCE
YOUR DIRECTION
I’m Karsten. Boxer, coach
and movement specialist.
My goal is to become a world champion. I’m documenting the road there: the training, the progress and the days when it’s a bit harder.
My background spans industrial design, mechanical engineering and movement education. I enjoy understanding how things work, seeing connections and helping people work through the challenges in front of them.
I’m pursuing my own goal. I’d love to help you work towards yours by training you like a fighter.
