waterdave Posted March 24, 2010 #1 Share Posted March 24, 2010 I read that they offer a sparring class with a trainer etc, had anyone done this? what the deal? Seems like a fun workout while on vacation, especially if its training with good trainers in the ring, and you actually get some sparring time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sailingawaysoon Posted March 25, 2010 #2 Share Posted March 25, 2010 If I'm not mistaken, there's a fee to use it. We've been on the Freedom several times and have never seen anyone use it. The only time I've seen anyone in the ring was when Samantha Brown did a special on the Freedom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oshkosh1 Posted March 25, 2010 #4 Share Posted March 25, 2010 My wife did the boxing lesson during our FOS cruise last year. She enjoyed it and said it was a great workout. There was a fee for the class, and it hurt to raise her arms for the rest of the week. Other than that it was great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matj2000 Posted March 25, 2010 #5 Share Posted March 25, 2010 It is smaller than a real boxing ring and I never saw anyone use it. It will probably be gone eventually and the space used for something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puffinater Posted March 25, 2010 #6 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Samantha Brown used it when she taped from the Freedom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdpups Posted March 26, 2010 #7 Share Posted March 26, 2010 It was a highlight for my daughter on our June cruise last year. I believe the cost was around $100 plus tip. My husband got in there a few times, but mostly my daughter and the trainer. It was a great workout and the trainer was impressed she could go pretty much the full hour. If I remember correctly you could also just book for half an hour as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parkay Posted March 26, 2010 #8 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Should have put a hot tub in its place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waterdave Posted March 26, 2010 Author #9 Share Posted March 26, 2010 great, thanks for the info- its a good selling point in my book- Ill do it a few days to get a good workout, I do agree its kind of a waste of space- because you really dont need to be in a ring to practice sparring and workout, but it makes it fun. The thing is, I didnt realize until i was on the oasis, that the freedom class ships are really big too- and have so much unique activities... and half the price in some cases.
