Chessboxing Workshop Amsterdam

Details

Chess boxing - founded in Amsterdam, is pretty much one of the most unorthodox sports disciplines you’ll see in the world. Chess and boxing are two different sports, but alternating rounds of two different disciplines are putting the athletes’ cardio, fight IQ, and brain activity to the maximum level!
----------------------------------------------------
Expect a spicy boxing training with crash course on chess tactics mixed in to prepare you for a few rounds of chessboxing, which we end the training with.

Friendliness is the name of the game here. No head contact, and low intensity body sparring unless you are a (very) experienced boxer.
