"My name is Rolands, I’m from Latvia. I like boxing here. When I arrived here I wanted to find somewhere to box here but I’m deaf. I looked on the internet and found this group.
The first time I came I was worried about communication but when I arrived I was surprised because there was an interpreter. I was really happy because there was full communication. I can communicate with the hearing people and learn how to box and ask what things mean if I don’t understand, it’s perfect.
The people are very encouraging and I am learning lots of boxing, it’s fantastic. All the hearing and deaf people are friendly with each other and it’s just great."
"My name is Nicki (sign name). I come here to Box fit for two reasons: first because it’s healthy to exercise, secondly it’s fantastic, we laugh and have fun. The exercise is hard but I like it because you have to think hard about the different punches.
The group are all lovely and friendly and I feel fully included. It’s really interesting and I will keep coming, it’s great."
