How do you get over the Nervousness of starting boxing?

[dfwtx]

be confident but not arrogant and dont be hesitant and you should be fine

don't worry, its nothing to be afraid of. As one said, there are not that many boxers so when some one new enters they are happy and just want to help.

You should have seen me when i started to play badminton (of all sports) i made such a fool of myself but i wanted to master the game so i didn't care. I beat the crap out of these guys now.

I started jiu jitsu when i was 32 so no worries, you like something you start it!

you'll be fine and you will see that NOBODY at the gym is checking you out...but you

dont be too nervous just be relaxed and friendly and ready to listen , i was worried when i first started (age 12) but i soon found out i was decent for a beginner and really enjoyed it, so yeah just be calm
