Do you have boxing classes for beginners in Geelong?

Absolutely. Our boxing classes cater to all levels, from first-timers to competitive fighters. We run beginner-friendly sessions for adults, women-only classes with Coach Paislee, and kids boxing for younger athletes. No experience, no contact and no pressure required — just turn up, have a go and enjoy the workout.

Can I do Muay Thai just for fitness, or is it only for fighters?

Muay Thai is one of the best total-body workouts you can do — it works your legs, arms, back and core all in one session. While we do train competitive fighters, most of our Muay Thai members train purely for fitness, stress relief and fun. Carbon Gym founder John Bourke lost 40kg doing Muay Thai before he ever stepped into the ring. There is no pressure to compete whatsoever.

Do you offer Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) in Geelong?

Yes. We run gi and no-gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes for all levels, coached by experienced black belt instructors. BJJ is a great martial art for self-defence, fitness and mental discipline. Whether you are a complete beginner or an experienced grappler, you are welcome on the mats at Carbon Gym.

Do you have kids martial arts classes?

We do. Our kids martial arts program is one of the most popular at Carbon Gym. We offer kids boxing, kids Muay Thai (Saturdays 9:00–9:45am, ages 8–16) and kids BJJ. Classes build confidence, discipline, coordination and fitness in a safe, supportive environment. Your child’s first class is free, so they can try it out with no commitment.

Is there a women-only class?

Yes. Our Ladies Only Striking class is a dedicated women-only session covering boxing and striking techniques in a comfortable, supportive setting. It is coached by Paislee and is open to all experience levels. Check the timetable for current session times.

What recovery facilities do you have?

Carbon Gym features dedicated recovery facilities including a sauna and ice bath. Recovery access is included in our Gym & Recovery and Full Access memberships. Proper recovery helps reduce muscle soreness, improve circulation and get you back to training faster.

Do you offer personal training?
