Entrevista Nuria

Overview

Nuria explains that she has always been sporty and active, but recently felt stagnant and wanted to try something new. Her sister, who lives in Spain, recommended Brooklyn Fitboxing, a team kickboxing-style class that includes a synchronization element.

In these classes, participants must not only perform the movements correctly but also stay synchronized with strikes. Each session ends with a ranking/score, adding a competitive aspect that motivates her to follow a higher standard than typical gym workouts. She says the team and competitive environment pushes her to improve and stay “within a certain code,” and that she’s really enjoying it.

Benefits After Motherhood

After becoming a mother, she wanted an option with strong cardio to support weight loss. She also feels Brooklyn Fitboxing provides complementary strength exercises.

She describes it as a way to release energy, offering both a kind of mental therapy and physical therapy.

Getting Started and Scheduling

She notes that it wasn’t hard to begin once she developed more discipline and found time—especially after her younger child (almost two) made her routine more manageable. Since she works mostly remotely, she typically fits classes in during her lunch break or other limited times during the month.
