About Shane
Coach Shane began his journey and dream of coaching boxing in 2001 while he was teaching construction at Van Horne High School in Calgary. He started by recruiting a few students that showed a particular interest in the sport and started training them during spares, lunch and any breaks. From there, he built himself a gym in his garage and started training them there. Some of the kids went on to win Golden Gloves in Calgary and Shane realized his true passion for coaching. Since then, he has been involved in many aspects of competitive sports, ranging from competitor to coach and mentor in boxing, having experience in coaching amateur and professional fighters. Dynamite Boxing Club has come a long way from training fighters while he was a teacher, opening a gym in his garage to now having his own beautiful 5000+ square foot facility that he calls home. His passion for the sport has allowed him to grow and engage in the community, creating a place for all ages and levels of experience to step out of their comfort zones and learn the art of boxing.
