YOUR GOAL, YOUR SESSION

A coach focused on your progress

BEFORE YOU BOOK

Private coaching questions

Can a coach come to my home?

This option takes place at our Estepona gym. For home or villa visits, choose La Forja Private at Home. Coverage, coach and price are confirmed according to location and availability.

Where do gym sessions take place?

Sessions take place at La Forja Martial Arts, Calle Galileo, 28, Estepona. We welcome enquiries from across the Marbella–Sotogrande corridor. Confirm your booking before setting off.

Can I start with no experience?

Yes. Tell us you are a beginner and which discipline interests you. Training is adapted to your level; you do not need to have plans to compete.

Can I focus only on boxing?

You can request a private session focused on boxing: punches, footwork and defence. Mention this when booking so we can distinguish it from kickboxing or boxing adapted to MMA.

What does it cost and when can I train?

Message us to confirm the price, session length and available times before booking. Private sessions are by appointment and are booked separately from group memberships.

Is the first private session free?

The free first-class offer applies to group classes. Please confirm the price and conditions of a private session before booking.

Can I enquire in English?
