MIT's Largest Kickboxing Class

On Tuesday, April 6, those working out in the Zesiger Center saw an unusual sight: a hoard of people punching, kicking and shadowboxing on the Kresge Lawn. The Fitness department within DAPER offered an event called MIT’s Largest Kickboxing Class, and with 60 participants, the class was true to its name. Recreation Instructors David Lee, Liz Hamp, Elena Byrne and Lauren Hanley led an hour long cardio-kickboxing class that was free to students, faculty, staff, gym members and the MIT community. The class was a great success! When surveyed, 90% of participants said the event was “awesome.” Many participants wanted to know when the next outdoor group exercise class would be, we are looking to organize another for the fall.

Thank you to the participants who made MIT Recreation's outdoor kickboxing event such a great success. Enjoy the video and pictures!
