Welcome to Adapt’s Boxing ACADEMY.
Located at 234 Corrimal St, Wollongong - We are your home for Wollongong Boxing.
Most gyms sell sweat. We coach boxing. Properly. Our coaches Nudge Mieli and Kosta Skrapis pride themselves on this.
Because boxing isn’t random combos on a whiteboard or cardio dressed up with gloves.
It’s stance. Footwork. Timing. Defence. Real coaching that makes every round count. And doing this at a high standard matters. And it matters ALOT to us.
And when life piles on - work stress, family pressure, never enough time - boxing gives you something most workouts don’t:
a way to switch off, hit the pads, and leave the day behind.
Whether you’ve never thrown a punch, want to shake up boring training, or you’re ready to step into the ring - we’ve got you covered.
Let boxing become your therapy.

YOU LEARNING HOW TO BOX PROPERLY MATTERS TO US.
Anyone can throw a punch. But learning how to box properly - that’s different.
Boxing isn’t just fitness. It’s a skill. A craft. Something that demands respect for technique, patience, and consistency.
When you learn to box properly, you’re not just getting fitter - you’re building discipline, focus, and confidence that carry into every part of your life.
Because the truth is, how you train reflects how you do everything.
When you cut corners, rush the process, or skip the fundamentals - it shows.
But when you slow down, listen, and do things right - that’s when you grow.
That’s why, at Adapt Boxing Academy, we hold a standard.
We coach proper technique.
We teach you how to move, how to think, how to stay composed under pressure - the way real fighters do.
It’s not about whether you’ll ever step into a ring.
It’s about learning the craft the right way - because doing things properly matters.
And when you train that way, you don’t just become a better boxer - you become a better version of yourself.

Kosta is a 6–0 professional boxer, WBC Australian Silver Title holder, and lifelong martial artist who’s spent three decades helping people build confidence, discipline, and resilience.
Nudge brings 23 years of elite coaching, having trained Olympians, Commonwealth Games athletes, and multiple champions. As NSW Futures Coach and Head U19s Coach, his technical eye and focus on fundamentals have shaped some of the best - including Kosta himself since he was 14.

Real coaching. Real community.
WHY OUR BOXING ACADEMY?
-
From your first class, you’ll learn how to move, breathe, and throw properly. It’s not about random combos — it’s about building real skill, one session at a time.
-
Boxing isn’t just for fighters. It’s for anyone who wants to move better, think clearer, and push harder. Every class builds strength, endurance, and self-respect.
-
Nothing resets your head like hitting pads or bags. It’s therapy through movement — you walk in with noise and walk out lighter.
-
We train teachers, tradies, mums, dads, students, and pros side by side. No egos. No cliques. Just people chasing their best.
-
We don’t rush anyone into the ring. You’ll develop confidence, control, and composure first — then step up when it feels right.
-
Every coach here has done the work. They’ve been where you are and they’ll meet you where you’re at.
-
Whether you’re training to fight, to get fit, or to find your fire again — Adapt is where everyday athletes are made.
