If you want to get sharper, faster, and tougher, you’ve got to show up and do the work. My classes are all about real effort - discipline, sweat, and a bit of fun mixed in. ### What You’ll Learn - We start with the basics, so even if you’re looking for beginner friendly boxing lessons, you’ll fit right in. - I focus a lot on technique, footwork, and defense. Like I always say, boxing isn’t just about punching - it’s about not getting punched. - Into kickboxing? We work on Dutch style kickboxing classes, drilling combos like jab-cross-roundhouse and building up to more complex moves. - Cardio sessions mix in fitness exercises, so expect a full-body workout. - Sparring is always technical and controlled. Doesn’t matter if you’re a newbie or a seasoned fighter, there’s a place for you. ### Who Can Train With Me - Kids as young as 4 (kickboxing for kids batches are pretty popular, parents love that). - Women wanting to train for fitness, self-defense, or just to feel damn strong. - Busy students and professionals, with flexible batches to fit your schedule. - Serious fighters looking for advanced, invite-only sessions. ### My Approach We spend time on shadow boxing, pad work, heavy bag drills, and plenty of fitness conditioning. It’s all about building a strong foundation, and nobody’s too old or young to start. ### About Me Mechanical engineer by degree, but honestly, fighting and coaching is my real job. I’ve picked up a gold medal at the Karnataka Open Kickboxing Championship and judged for WAKO too. Still learning, still hungry. After a long day, just simple home food for me. Avvalothan (that’s it). ## Highlights Browse through Jagapathi Babu's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/jagapathibabuk1996/boxing-kickboxing/featured) - ![This is what it’s all about: power, precision, and pushing your limits.

Started out with machines, ended up on the mats. Training’s our life – discipline, sweat, and a bit of family temple travel mixed in. Golds in grappling and kickboxing, always chasing that next belt. Our gym’s got heart, not just muscle. Pooja with the parents, festivals, all of it matters. For us, training, faith, and family go together. That’s how we roll. ### My work - **MMA, Kickboxing, BJJ (Gi & No-Gi), Boxing, S&C, Fitness**: We train all - kids MMA classes, adults, beginners, fighters. Personal and group slots. Everyone’s welcome. - **Training Approach**: No shortcuts. You’ll sweat, get pushed, and build a strong mind and body. It’s a lifestyle. - **Community & Teamwork**: We’re a BJJ family. Support, group outdoor fitness runs, and teamwork inside and outside the academy. ## More services from Jagapathi Babu - [Mixed Martial Arts](https://mytribe.in/jagapathibabuk1996/mixed-martial-arts) · ₹2,000-5,000 per month (estimate) - [Kids Martial Arts](https://mytribe.in/jagapathibabuk1996/kids-martial-arts) · ₹1,500-3,000 per month (estimate) - [Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu](https://mytribe.in/jagapathibabuk1996/brazilian-jiu-jitsu) · ₹300-700 per group class (estimate) ## Experts similar to Jagapathi Babu on mytribe - [Kickboxing & Boxing Training by Shiljith](https://mytribe.in/saimma_academy/kickboxing-boxing-training) · ₹1,800-4,000 per month (group class) (estimate) · Ippon Institute of Martial Arts & Fitness - [Kickboxing by Ippon Martial Arts & Fitness](https://mytribe.in/ippon_institute/kickboxing) · ₹2,000-4,500 per month (estimate) · Ippon Institute of Martial Arts & Fitness - [Mixed Martial Arts & Combat Sports Training by Bengaluru MMA](https://mytribe.in/bengalurumma/mixed-martial-arts-combat-sports-training) · ₹2,000-6,000 per month (estimate) · Bengaluru MMA Jalahalli - [Boxing & Kickboxing by Rama Reddy](https://mytribe.in/rr.dojo/boxing-kickboxing) · ₹250-700 per group class (estimate) · Fitness Ace - [Kickboxing by Reign MMA](https://mytribe.in/reignmma_india/kickboxing) · ₹2,000-4,500 per month (group class) (estimate) · Reign MMA - [MMA & Combat Sports Training by 1026 MMA Academy](https://mytribe.in/1026_mma_academy/mma-combat-sports-training) · ₹2,000-6,000 per month (estimate) · 1026 MMA Academy - [Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) & Combat Sports Training by Royal Kickboxing Academy](https://mytribe.in/royalkickboxingacademy/mixed-martial-arts-mma-combat-sports-training) · ₹2,200-6,000 per month (estimate) - [MMA Training by National Martial Arts and Fitness Academy](https://mytribe.in/nationalmartialartsandfitness/mma-training) · ₹2,000-5,000 per month (estimate) · National Martial Arts and Fitness Academy ( NMFA - India ) - [Combat Fitness Classes by Rajib](https://mytribe.in/zin_rajib365/combat-fitness-classes) · ₹250-600 per session (estimate) · HSR Fitness World (AECS Layout) - [Combat Sports Training by MultiFit](https://mytribe.in/multifit_bengaluru/combat-sports-training) · ₹1,200-3,000 per month (estimate) · MultiFit - Gym in Kalyan Nagar - [Martial Arts & Kickboxing Classes by Kikker Martial Arts](https://mytribe.in/kikkermartialarts/martial-arts-kickboxing-classes) · ₹1,200-3,000 per month (group class) (estimate) · Kikker Martial Arts (at the Centre for Kala) - [MMA & Boxing by Horizon Champions Club](https://mytribe.in/horizonchampionsclub/mma-boxing) · ₹2,500-5,000 per person per month (estimate) · Horizon champions club ## Book To book Jagapathi Babu, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20Boxing%20%26%20Kickboxing%20by%20Jagapathi%20Babu.)
