Most gyms are a brand. We're a family.

Farquhar's Boxing was started by Bobby Farquhar and built alongside his son Adrian — a professional boxer who went from a Canberra high-school kid to an Australian junior champion on the world stage, and came home to coach. That's not marketing. That's who runs the gym you walk into.

It means when you train here, you're not a membership number in a franchise. You're welcomed into a real boxing club, by people who've done it at the top and who genuinely want you — beginner or fighter — to get better and feel like you belong.

Coaching at Farquhar's

Back in Canberra, passing it all on — to beginners and fighters alike.

The full family story is Bobby & Adrian's to tell — this is a concept of how it could be shown.

Why Farquhar's

A real club — not a boxing-flavoured workout

Beginners genuinely welcome

Nervous about walking into a "real" boxing gym? That's exactly who we're for. All-levels classes, a safe and welcoming room, and coaches who start you at the start.

Coached by real fighters

A pro boxer, a national champion and the President of Boxing ACT are in the building. You learn genuine technique from people who've competed at the top.

A family you can join

Train solo, or bring the whole household — our Family Pack lets parents and kids train together. It's a community, and it's built to last.
