HISTORY OF PEARLSIDE BOXING

Picture
Providing Fitness Boxing Classes and Boxing Training (for fighters) since 1997.
Also, now a ROCK STEADY BOXING Affiliate (for those with Parkinson's disease); to help with movement, strength, balance and slow the progression of the disease.
 


​PearlSide Boxing was founded in September 1997 when Pastor Norman Nakanishi offered up the warehouse at Grace Bible Church PearlSide. For years, coach Eiichi has had the passion to give back to the community, especially the young, the joy of getting fit through the sport of boxing.

Coach Eiichi had gained so much from boxing, winning 2 USA National Championships, representing the USA in international competition, was an alternate for the 1976 U.S. A. Olympic Boxing Team, he felt it was his calling to give back to Hawaii's young people.

We first established ourselves as "Tomorrow's Champions Boxing Club" but changed it to PearlSide Boxing, in honor of our sponsor church. Thus, we are a "Christian" based program and this is a personal ministry of Coach Eiichi and wife Robyn Jumawan.


Vision, Mission, & Purpose
​

VISION:   To impact lives, help people and our community through guidance, modeling, and programs (fitness, boxing, drug education, after school activities, community service projects, and mentoring).
