The penultimate photo-blog post. This one packs a punch. With the motto “Train hard, fight easy,” the Boxgirls are in your face. Which doesn’t sound nice, until you know that it’s a strategic sport that improves physical performance, flexibitily, courage, tactical abilities, mental strength and technical know-how among women. At Boxgirls International, girls from different cultures and social milieus learn not only how to aim a power-shot, but also how to develop their mental leadership skills. The Boxgirls project also acts as a role model project on betterplace.org.
Anikka Bauer, a photographer with the Ostkreuz School, visited Boxgirls at the end of 2009 and took this series of great photos for our betterplace works brochure.
