We hear about the rise in childhood obesity rates on an alarmingly regular basis. Many of us step up our own exercise programs in an effort to keep our bodies fit and our minds sane, but what about our kids? Many times I've been stealth in quietly escaping to the gym, but it's difficult to keep the guilt at bay as I leave the kids at home or in a gym daycare. Now, there is finally another option and I'm so excited about it. Punch Boxing and Fitness has launched a workout class for the ENTIRE FAMILY! That's right. It's for everyone. Family Boxing takes place at 12:00 every Sunday at Punch and it has been a fantastic way for us all to spend quality time together doing something fun and different. The kids love it and it is a great workout. Family friendly means that they don't expect you to be an expert by any means. Working out with my kids takes the guilt away, they love the experience and most importantly, we are all together.
Owners Brad and Jill Goetsch are busy parents themselves, and integrating their family life into their professional one is paramount to them. It's worked, and they want to show us all that it can work for us too. So pile everyone into the car and take a Sunday drive over to Punch. Leading by example is one of the very best things that we can do to keep our kids healthy and fit.
Punch Boxing and Fitness is located at 4931 W.6th (the old Googles location) and they can be reached at 785-856-7862.
