The Absolute boxing team putting on another stellar performance today! Matched with some strong opponents we came away with 4 wins 3 losses and 1 draw. Well done team, especially the first timers and those who went out to support them!

It’s time for few of these guys to start in the registered amateurs now!

What a day at the IBJJF World Championships! Shantelle Thompson – Barkindji Warrior is our newest World Champion! Shantelle trains harder than anyone and it’s paid off! Well done Shantelle!

Coach Livia Gluchowska also put on an outstanding performance, putting on dominant displays en route to the final where she won silver!

Congratulations to Nikki from Absolute South Yarra, winning Silver at the IBJJF World Championships in California and receiving her well-deserved her blue belt on the podium!

What an awesome way to receive your next belt!

Coached by boxing superstar Pradeep Sihag, the Absolute boxing team returns to action this Sunday from 10.30AM!

Absolute’s Sam Parsons, Joao Barbedo, Will McGreal, Lachie Swann, Jaskirat Chhina, Karen Ng, Mandeep Mandhan and Hung Nguyen return to inter club boxing! We have four first-timers and for some, this is likely to be the last inter club for some of the team before they make the step up to the registered amateurs!

“I rarely say this, but for me this show was almost perfect… The Exonerated is one of the best plays you’ll see this year. 5 Stars”

It’s awesome to see one of our boxers, Andrei Shiller-Chan, getting such amazing reviews for his powerful show, ‘The Exonerated’!

Inspired by the infamous story of Rubin “Hurricane” Carter, the African American boxer who was wrongly imprisoned for murder from 1966 to 1985, Andrei started started his own theatre company and is directing ‘The Exonerated’ to raise awareness about other people who were wrongfully imprisoned for crimes that they didn’t commit.

‘The Exonerated’ runs until June 7 so head over to Chapel off Chapel in Prahran before it’s too late. The Sol III Company proceeds are donated evenly between Rubin Hurricane Carter’s ‘Innocence International’ and Liberation Prison Yoga so it’s a great cause.

Check out an interview with Andrei.
