Paul Wade
Paul began his martial arts career as a teenager in Dublin, Ireland. At 12 years of age, he quickly advanced past his fellow classmates and was taking on kickboxing students by the age of 17. With 55+ pro/amateur kickboxing fights under his belt, Paul brought his expertise across the pond, where he found a home in the heart of San Francisco. In preparation for the 2001 Golden Gloves championship, Paul returned home to Ireland to train for two weeks and returned with a dominant victory in the boxing event that stunned the crowds.
“Of the 100-plus fighters at this year's San Francisco Golden Gloves tournament, nobody created as much buzz as super middleweight Paul Wade. His punches are crisp, his nerves under control, his style polished. Wade moves around the ring with a confidence and determination that makes it clear he knows what he's doing.”
-SF Gate, 2001
Following his Golden Gloves victory, Paul sought to revitalize boxing in San Fraicisco, which has a long history in the sport, but according to Paul, had fallen into decline due to lack of authentic boxing gyms.
Thus, 3rd Street Boxing Gym was born.
20 years later, 3rd Street Boxing Gym is continuously awarded “Best Boxing Gym in SF” and is widely recognized as the last authentic boxing gym under Paul’s strategic, passionate, and authentic coaching.
Paul is now taking the opportunity to share his expertise with those who seek to understand and acquire boxing knowledge and functionality. This course reflects Paul's established and proven training style and equips prospective trainers with the required knowledge to educate others on correct and safe boxing techniques.
