HENRY BARKER-JOHNSON
(professional boxer)
LEVEL 1 BOXING COACH
Achievements: Elite amateur boxer
Boxing is a huge part of my life; I started boxing at the age of 6 with my older brother who always pushed me to my limit. I have had over 35 amateur bouts and I have also boxed in the army. I am now a professional fighter and pursuing a career in the sport of boxing. Boxing, for me has been a release from the stress of day to day life. Somewhere I can find peace and tranquility; a place where there is no ego, no status, no opinions just hard work and an equal environment for all.
I apply this ethos to my coaching, to mentally and physically improve peoples lives. Watching a young shy kid grow into themselves and develop their confidence though boxing or seeing someone lose weight and get fitter gives me joy and gratification. I will try to be the best I can for anyone who enters the gym.
