Boxing Footwork for Beginners - Micro Movements 

www.myboxingcoach.com - When it comes to boxing footwork for beginners, less is definitely more in my experience. For a boxing beginner, mastering micro movements in for basic ways will lead to success. This simple boxing footwork drills set up will give you the best possible chance of building boxing footwork that gives you balance, power and economy of movement.
If you cannot master the simple boxing footwork patterns that I demonstrate in this video, then you can't control yourself. If you can't control yourself, how do you hope to control an opponent? The really big factor in nailing boxing footwork as a beginner is to aim for micro movements and avoiding the common beginner boxer faults.
The boxing drill pattern I use is about as simple as it gets. A simple cross can be laid out in duct tape and this will give you the perfect template to execute controlled boxing footwork movements. The boxing drill pattern gives you a fixed point of reference, and that is the power of these types of beginner boxing drills.
The 4 sets of boxing footwork movements are:
Movement in and out
Lateral movement
Diagonal movement (lead foot side)
Diagonal movement (rear foot side)
Once you master these boxing footwork directions of movement, you can evolve to layering other skills. You can add straight punches, hooks and uppercuts. You can also add in head movements, like the duck or the slip.
If you are a boxing beginner, layering on those additional skills will be a challenge. So, ensure that you master the simple boxing footwork for beginners elements of the micro movements. Only once you are comfortable with those skills, and you are avoiding the beginner faults, should you add in the other boxing skills.
