Head Coach/Owner of TNT
Joel Yip Chuck
I'm a former amateur boxer with 44 bouts. I've boxed many Provincial and Canadian champions, I have also had the privilege to train with Olympians and Olympic and Professional boxing trainers. My experience with that level of training has made me versatile in all boxing styles. I've taken something from every trainer and training partner I've worked with and created my own style. My boxing club and the way I train has evolved over the years and will continue to. I didn't have very much success as an amateur boxer and an injury derailed my professional boxing ambitions, but as a coach it has been a different story. I began as an assistant coach in 2002 and was an assistant coach and chief training partner to several tournament champions including Provincial Gold medalists and National title contenders. I began as a Head Coach in 2005 at the young age of 25. At 26, I opened my own boxing club in Guelph and called it TNT Boxing Academy and built it from the ground up into the top boxing club in Guelph.
I am very passionate about learning the newest ideas in Sports Science and take what will be useful to the sport of boxing and blend them together. I continue to strive to create the best training programs around not only for competition but also for recreation and fitness.
