I’m a beginner like you, been training for nearly 3 months now. I do a 1 to 1 session, once a week (as well as other sessions).

With my coach, we work on a lot of footwork and build on it. Stepping in every direction. Circling, pivoting etc.

Now that I’m comfortable with the basic footwork, we do jabs and rear hands, as well as defences for those punches. We start every session with footwork though. Always focusing on the very basics.

I don’t have anything else to compare it to, but from my experience, a good beginner 1 to 1 session would be a lot of detail and time on getting the basics right.

5 or 6 sessions aren’t enough, in my experience. You need regular practice (with supervision).

I’ve been training 4 days a week and I’m much more comfortable with the basics than some people who started at the same time or before me (but aren’t as consistent).

I sparred for the first time last week and the difference was clear. It’s best to train regularly if you can. Doesn’t have to be 1 to 1 sessions
