Private online training is useful if you find yourself stuck on any aspect of your training, if you require help in preparation for your assessment or simply to reaffirm your knowledge and skills.

Kajza Ekberg
Kajza Ekberg
Swedish born, Kajza spent her childhood in India, where her mother was an Ashtanga Yoga teacher, helping her learn the alphabet with asanas and doing headstands before bed.

A lifelong yogi practitioner and certified teacher, Kajza is an all-round physical mover; competing in gymnastics on a national elite level in Sweden, followed by years of boxing and martial arts training, before embarking on her classical dance studies.

Partnering with BoxingYoga™ founder, Matt Garcia, Kajza combined her passion, knowledge and experience to play a crucial role in developing BoxingYoga™ as we know it today.



"BoxingYoga helps me improve in every department. A lot of fighters don't know how to stretch properly. BoxingYoga has everything they need - it keeps you young, keeps you fresh and keeps your body more athletic for a longer period of time, so you can do what you love for longer."

- Scott Quigg, Former World Super Bantamweight Boxing Champion

BoxingYoga™ on Business Insider

"Following the success of BoxingYoga in pre-season at our Training Academy, we set-up regular post-match BoxingYoga recovery sessions for our First Team. The sessions have proved extremely beneficial and it's no coincidence the squad are recovering faster from injury and showing improvement on post-match fatigue. We couldn't be happier with the effect BoxingYoga is having on the players and their ability to consistently perform at the highest level. I strongly recommend BoxingYoga to everyone."

- Philip Morrow, Performance Director, Saracens Rugby Club
