Women's boxing in Abu Dhabi has exploded in the last three years. The combination of conditioning, skill and confidence is unmatched.
Why women love it
Skill acquisition (it's a sport, not a workout), serious calorie burn, stress release, strong female community. Combat-trained female coaches change the experience entirely.
What a women-only boxing class looks like
Female coach, women-only floor, technical focus, partner drills with no full-contact sparring unless you opt in. RPM's Imen Hasnaoui (World and African Champion) coaches in the Ladies section.
Equipment to start
Wraps and gloves. Most gyms loan gloves for the first 1–2 sessions. Buy your own once you're committed.
