In this video workshop with Team 700 for grades 7+, you’ll hear how boxing has created space — especially for men — to be soft, to feel deeply, and to stay connected to their emotions. The youth and mentors on the team share how stepping into the ring isn’t just about strength, but about healing, vulnerability, and reclaiming what it truly means to be a warrior. This video breaks down harmful stereotypes around masculinity and what it means to be a “fighter,” showing instead that real strength comes from knowing yourself, honouring your feelings, and refusing to let the world harden you. Through culture, community, and movement, Team 700 reminds us that being a warrior is about protecting your heart — not hiding it.
This workshop is intended for grades 7-12
