As a fighter, Nate went undefeated in BC, as the reigning BC Champion from 2000-2010. During those 10 years Nate turned over about 100 fights in the Canadian Amateur boxing scene and winning a Canadian Senior National title in 2008, 4 National Silver and 4 National Bronze medals and also competing in 3 Olympic trial events. “I like teaching people interested in learning boxing, the proper way…yes, there are “proper ways” to learn boxing. Not the exact prescription of every detail of a fighter, but teaching the fundamentals of good footwork, a sound defence and proper sticking technique. “unnecessary punches if you do plan to spar, maybe, as your next step in learning “how to box.”
