Celebrating 5 Years of ShadowBox! 🎉

It’s incredible to see how far this club has come.

From a small, empty studio with just 6 boxing bags and some dusty hand weights, we've grown into a vibrant powerhouse that many call their second home.

Built from the ground up, we are known as the family gym with a family feel, a smile on everyone’s faces and big competitive heart beat to follow.

No franchise approach, no big box vibe, no backend support. We’re just a bunch of fitness enthusiasts and combat specialists striving to become 'harder to kill.' 😝

ShadowBox has forged incredible, lifelong friendships with the focus to always stick together in any circumstances.

We've championed numerous charities, won multiple awards and stood as a pillar for our local community.

Have we made mistakes? Absolutely. We're only human. But in our pursuit of greatness, our members' have always been our top priority.

Reaching the 5-year mark is a testament to the amazing community we've built and the lives we’ve impacted along the way. Everyone who has stepped through our doors has progressed in our time together. I'm proud of that. From our dedicated members to our phenomenal coaching team, thank you for being a part of this journey. 🙏

Our mission has always been to create a space where fitness, community and support come together. Because of you, we keep pushing forward. In the coming months, we're excited to move into a bigger and better facility where the fitness world meets the dojo, welcoming all walks of life to train. This is where the real magic happens.

Here’s to many more years of making a difference together.

With gratitude,

Ben 🥊

Find people who align with the mission, standards and morals of the company. People who are excited by the growth, prepared to be challenged and driven to build an empire with their team.

Your past is a chapter, not the entire story. 💯

Every moment is an opportunity to redefine yourself. Let today's actions speak louder than yesterday's mistakes.

True belonging only happens when we present our authentic, imperfect selves to the world. 

Standing together with an understanding that things might not be where you want them to be right now, but I'm falling forward with the right people beside me. 

Your test is your testimony & it’s our choice daily to make progress. Even just a little.

I've been blessed to hear the stories of many.

Everyday legends, having a crack at life. These are my kind of people. 🙏

Strengthening of mind, body and spirit. 

To be a champion, you must take yourself far beyond what you believe is capable.

Our Project X challengers weren't simply doubling their sessions or writing letters to their future selves – they're living a mindset focused on prioritising what truly counts.

Project X goes beyond your average 'fitness' challenge; it's a journey of self-discovery and growth. From intense workouts to the moments of quiet reflection, our Xers epitomise pushing boundaries and embracing the grind.

If you don't use it, you lose it. Train for life.

The bonds built, friendships united, forged through blood, sweat & tears. 🥊

It's a lifestyle. 💯

Success isn't just about what you do in public, but the effort you put in behind the scenes. 💯

On a mission…

[benny-shadowbox]

Project X was conceived with a vision far beyond your regular fitness challenge.

Designed to be a test of not just physical endurance, but also mental resilience. We firmly believe that true growth happens outside of the 'norm', where adversity pushes us to our limits and force people to rise above.

Throughout Project X, they faced confronting with uncomfortable situations that stretched their boundaries and tested their resolve. Day by day, inching closer to their goals and unlocking new levels of strength within themselves.

It's truely inspiring to witness this transformation unfold, and I'm immensely proud of each and every one of our 'Xers' for their courage. Together, we've proven that with trust, guidance and a willingness to grow, anything is possible. 💪🙏

Surrounded by Martial Arts legends at the MAA Master Awards was an absolute honour. 🙏

Being in the presence of such esteemed individuals was incredibly inspiring. Their stories, dedication and passion serve as reminders of the endless journey that come with dedication and hard work in our arts.

On our recent holiday to Bali, Megan and I, along with our kids & family organised a trip to visit Chloe Orphans, an orphanage nestled in the heart of Bali. Spending the day with these incredible children, playing & singing was a profound experience that left a mark on our hearts.

We filled a van full of toys, gifts & essentials to spread just a little love to these children in need.

For all the blessings we've received in our lives, it's essential that we pay it forward. Even if it's just for a day, I wanted to show my children the impact of giving back. It's a humbling reminder to be grateful for what we have and to share that gratitude. 🙏

Martial Arts community is about unity.

It's not just about training within our own; it's about coming together with others who share the same devoted passion. I love the camaraderie that comes from training with different disciplines.

Together, we inspire and challenge each other to grow both as budo brothers & sisters. 🙏

As The S Games draws near, I'm reminded of the incredible strength of our community here at ShadowBox.

Our #CULTUREOFSTRONG isn't just about physical prowess; it's about the bonds we've forged and the support we offer each other on this journey. Together, we're more than just individuals – we're a united force, pushing boundaries and achieving greatness.

Let's continue to uplift and inspire one another as we prepare to conquer The S Games! 💪
