What is Mentalmate?

Everyone should have someone to talk to. It sounds so simple, yet so many people don’t have that, which is where Mentalmate comes in! We are building a group of mental mates through boxing down at the Mentalmate Boxing Gym in the Wicker area of Sheffield 6 times per week. We have found that it is much easier to talk and discuss your feelings whilst exercising, if attendees do not wish to talk then that’s fine but it’s nice to know that you are surrounded by people who are all there for the same reason.

It’s so important to look after your mental health like you would your physical health and at our Mentalmate boxing sessions you can do both! Sometimes people don’t feel able to talk with friends and family for the fear of being judged or treated differently, down at our sessions everyone is welcome, all communities and abilities with no prior boxing experience needed.
