A boxing coach who actually explains.
I'm Chris Persaud — founder of The Flow State Method LLC and creator of the Better Through Boxing program. I've spent the last decade making boxing accessible: working with absolute beginners trying it for the first time, returning athletes shaking the rust off, and active competitors prepping for fights.
Why Better Through Boxing.
Most online boxing instruction is recorded video on a loop — pre-made workouts that can't see what you're actually doing. That works for fitness. It doesn't work for technique.
Better Through Boxing was built around one idea: live coaching translates over Zoom if the coach knows how to teach it. Every session is private, real-time, and built around what you specifically need to work on. I see your stance, I correct your footwork, I push you when you need it, and I slow down when the technique deserves it.
I'm especially proud of how well this works for beginners. Walking into a boxing gym is intimidating. Showing up on Zoom from your living room is not. You get the same coaching quality without the gym anxiety — and you build the foundation that makes the gym feel possible later, if you want it.
What I bring to a session.
10+ years of coaching
From the corner of competitive amateurs to the patient first-day-ever beginner. Same eye for detail, different pace.
Patience built for beginners
Boxing is hard. I make it feel less hard. No yelling, no ego, no pressure — just clear technique and real corrections.
Deeply technical breakdown
I don't just demo a punch. I explain the chain — feet, hips, shoulder, fist — so you feel where the power comes from.
Real human accountability
When you book, I personally text/call to schedule. When you train, it's me on the other end of the Zoom. No assistants, no rotating staff.
“Chris doesn't just show you how to do something — he explains the movement in such detail that you can feel it.”
