So, my question is, is it wise for a girl my size to take up A boxing class? I'm fairly fit but I'm not a muscley girl in the slightest. I'm 15 and weigh 110 lbs.
And, it concerns me that if I were to join a boxing class, I wouldn't be around others who are my gender/age group... Since it is a male-dominant sport.
I know it is a very tiring and difficult sport that needs a lot of time and effort... But I am willing!!!!!
Just wondering if I should put in the time to join a boxing class... And if so, any tips and tricks I should keep in mind?

or:yes because it is very good to know how to defend yourself it could come in handy
or:You can do it & it will be helpful for you. And its a good idea to learn boxing from a professional in a boxing class. Like upper said that it is good for self defense also.
or:yeah go ahead! your size is not an issue at all!no matter the reason you want to startself defense skills,competing or anything..the gym I used to train and 99% of the gyms I visited for sparring had a really friendly atmosphere and make you feel relaxed and part of the group fairly quickly..most of us didn't have much in common there were people who worked,poeple in college like me at the time and even some people who went to prison but we all had a good time together because we all had in common that we loved boxing so no matter who you are or what background you come from I think you will fit in in a boxing gym..I am also a very small guy (62kgs) and the only problem I had was that there wasn't people in my gym my size I could spar with so I sparred with bigger guys and proved to be a problem in competition were I fought at 60kgs or 64kgs with guys at my size and who were as fast as me if not faster and I wasn't used to it other than that everything was fine for me and I believe everything will be fine for you too
