Boxing Workshop

The Brazilian collective Boxe Autônomo offers free classes open to everyone, in dialogue with local initiatives, notably with the association Bien être – Liberté – Solidarité – Omnisport 93 in Bobigny. Trainers and boxers from São Paulo and the Paris region will lead the training sessions and sparrings. Born in a squat that brought together Syrian and Palestinian refugees, and based since 2018 at the Casa do Povo, Boxe Autônomo promotes a vision of sport that is resolutely political, antifascist, and solidaristic. Boxing here is conceived as a social right and a space of struggle against racism, sexism, and all forms of discrimination.
