Bicester personal trainer Daza Usher says he has been staggered by the response after setting up a boxing gym in the town.
Head coach Usher, 27, only set up the Unique Fitness Centre on Grange Farm Industrial Estate, near Bicester, in January, and already has a decent stable of male and female boxers on his books.
The gym, which is open to the public all week, including weekends, boasts a 16ft ring, a range of boxing bags, speedballs and cardio equipment, as well as fully trained and experienced coaches.
“It’s going really well and we’ve got all sorts of people and abilities coming along to our sparring classes,” said Usher, who set up Unique Fitness, a personal training company in 2007.
“You don’t have to be a world-class athlete. We welcome anyone who is willing to learn and train hard.”
Usher is preparing for the gym’s boxing show at the Barcelo Hotel on August 21.
