You can become a boxing coach without any qualifications, but there are certain things that you won't be able to do. (Source: StockSnap)You can coach without a coaching qualification in the UK. However, you need to ensure that certain legal responsibilities are met in terms of health and safety, protection from abuse, insurance, transportation, and ethics. This is paramount for anyone coaching any sport.Coaches are required to give appropriate advice and guidance and not offer any sort of advice that’s beyond their level of qualification or experience. Once you’re being paid for coaching, all these legal responsibilities will apply.You should consider taking boxing courses, legitimising your skills as a coach, affiliating with a boxing federation, and being a consummate professional. Furthermore, this will also be a huge plus legally.Whether you want to work in boxing gyms, boxing clubs, leisure centres, or offer private training, some professional boxing training will help and, in many cases, is obligatory for trainers.Consider some of the following boxing coaching courses...England Boxing CoursesLevel 1 Boxing Coaching CoursesThe level 1 coaching qualifications are for those wishing to coach competitive amateur boxing in England Boxing-affiliated clubs.

After all, a huge number of people are using boxing to get fit or get in shape rather than to get in the ring. These fitness classes are often referred to as boxing fitness and have you doing a boxing workout while working towards your fitness goals rather than dreaming of lifting the title. Fitness boxing is popular for those that want to get healthy but don't necessarily want to box. (Source: xusenru)The Ricky Hatton courses combine boxing training and fitness and are useful for both one-on-one training sessions and group sessions.The Fundamentals and Advanced course is designed for those wanting to offer fitness boxing sessions. This includes high-intensity fitness boxing drills and exercises.On the first day, you'll learn about basic techniques, combinations, and exercises. This included punching techniques and pad holding techniques, boxing combinations, speed and power drills, safety, and correcting poor form and providing advice.On the second day of this two-day course, you'll move onto the boxing-specific techniques such as defence moves and advanced technique combinations. You'll learn how to plan your sessions for advanced users and how to tailor your sessions to your clients and how to incorporate high-intensity cardio exercises.The third level of these course s is the elite course. This is where you'll learn how to use defensive techniques and how to incorporate them into your boxing classes. Again, you'll learn how to identify incorrect techniques and teach the correct technique to reduce the risk of injury. After all, you are their trainer and whether they're throwing punches at a heavy bag or doing a full-body workout, your job is to ensure that they don't get hurt.In addition to the fitness boxing courses, there's also a Strength and Conditioning for Boxing course. These are for those who plan on providing boxing workouts rather than fitness training and are designed with strength training and increasing punching power. The training that boxers undergo is also useful for those who don't box. (Source: skeeze)Now you know more about becoming a boxing coach, you can start passing on your passion for boxing to aspiring champions.  Whether you want to teach in a boxing gym, fitness centre, or as a private tutor, the most important thing is to enjoy what you're doing. Whether you're interested in a Muay Thai, kickboxing, or traditional boxing class, you can find someone to teach you how to box, coach, or plan a fitness class or boot camp.You can learn more about boxing from our other articles or even get boxing tutorials from one of the many experienced and talented tutors on Superprof. There are many boxing coaches around the UK and all over the world ready to help you but you need to choose the right one and the right type of tutorials. There are three main types, face-to-face tutorials, online tutorials, and group tutorials, and each has its pros and cons.Face-to-face tutorials are between you and a tu tor and are a great option if you have very specific requirements since the tutor usually tailors their sessions to you, the student. Since you'll be getting a bespoke service, the tutor will usually put in a lot of hours outside of the sessions planning and preparing and all this extra work comes at a cost, which is why face-to-face tutorials tend to be the most costly type of private tutorials. However, they're also the most cost-effective!Online tutorials are also just between you and the tutor but your tutor won't be physically there in the room with you. Thanks to the internet, anyone with a webcam, microphone, and decent internet connection can get tutorials from tutors all over the world at any time of the day. While these types of tutorials are better for academic subjects, with the right tutors, you can learn almost anything remotely. Since these tutors don't have to travel and can schedule more tutorials a week, they tend to charge more competitively since they have fewer outgoings and higher potential earnings.Finally, group tutorials include several students being taught by a single tutor. Of course, you won't get lessons that are tailored to just you since the tutor has other students to think about. That said, you will benefit from all the other students also paying their share of the tutor's time, making the lessons cheaper per student per hour on average than face-to-face tutorials or online tutorials.Think carefully about your budget, your goals, and how you like to learn before choosing your private tutor and remember that many of the tutors on Superprof also offer free tuition for the first hour. While this isn't usually a proper session, it's a good opportunity to meet your potential tutor, find out how they like to teach, see if you get along with each other, and agree on the details of your private tutorials.

How is Japanese Food Adapted Around the World

How is Japanese Food Adapted Around the World Do People Eat Real Japanese Food Outside of Japan? ChaptersJapanese Recipes: to Salt or not to Salt?Traditional Japanese Food... in Giant PortionsJapanese Cuisine: Let There Be Meat!It is quite common for people in lands other than Japan to proclaim a deep and abiding love for Japanese food.From the rituals of preparation to the presentation of dishes and the freshness of the ingredients, Japanese cuisine seems to earn much higher marks than, say, your favourite hamburger joint â€" no matter how high-end it is.Would you be surprised to find that what you have been eating and raving about this whole time merely capitalises on the idea of Japanese cuisine without wholly representing it?It’s not a matter of deceit, really. Those restaurateurs don’t have an eye on your wallet while providing thin slices of fish and small bowls of rice.However, they do have to obey the food safety laws of whichever country they operate in, which means that some aspects of authentic Japanese cuisine can only be experienced in Japan... and maybe a coupl e of other Asian countries.With the exception of oysters, people in the west generally refrain from eating anything that is still alive. By contrast, in Japan, eating live shrimp, octopus and fish is fairly common.Another sticky point from one food culture to the next is eating offal.With the possible exception of liver and the Scottish signature dish haggis, we in the west are not generally fond of eating animals’ organs or eyeballs but in Japan, fish eyeballs â€" and heads and organs are more than acceptable; they are a part of everyday eating.Of course, with more people advocating for more economical and sustainable eating practices in the west, nose-to-tail consumption of animals is gaining traction...Besides these two factors we just mentioned, how else does Japanese food around the world compare with traditional Japanese food eaten in Japan?our trademark fish’n’chips and even the ketchup we dip those chips in: we Brits live in a salted world. So does the rest of the west ern world.In fact, so overly-salted is our diet that the experts estimate we take in over 2 grams of salt more than is recommended by dietary guideline.Salt, or rather the lack of it is one reason that makes Japanese style eating so appealing to us.Does that mean that the meal you just enjoyed at your fav Japanese restaurant is in keeping with authentic Japanese cooking guidelines?Probably not.Japanese food is generally fairly bland in its purest form. Flavouring comes from fermented concoctions such as soy sauce, mirin, vinegar, cooking sake and miso.Most dishes served to Japanese people in their country are accompanied by condiments that elevate the food's flavour so the average Japanese chef doesn’t see salt as a necessary ingredient in food preparation.On the other hand, some ingredients used in cooking Japanese food have a naturally salty taste.Find some amazing cooking courses anywhere thanks to Superprof.Dashi broth is used extensively in Japanese cuisine to make soups and sauces and to simmer meat. It consists of fish flakes and seaweed; those ingredients combined create the impression of salt without actually using any.So, next time you dine at your fav Japanese eatery, disregard the saltshakers (and pepper shakers, too!) in favour of letting the natural flavours shine through.Get a start on planing your Japan trip: learn all about the various regional cuisines...A typical Japanese meal sees individual servings of bowls that are not full Image by Hirokazu Touwaku from PixabayTraditional Japanese Food... in Giant PortionsJapanese dishes run toward the small: small bowls, small plates and small cups for sake. Even Japanese rice dishes â€" donburi tend to be served in smaller portions than what westerners are used to.By contrast, portion size in the west... let’s be kind: would be enough for two meals. And that’s just the quantity of the food. If we’re talking calories, some meals represent an entire day’s recommended calorie intake!Wait a minu te, are we still talking about Japanese food?Indeed, we are. We’ll discuss ingredients in our next segment. Back to portion sizes, now.A typical Japanese meal served in a restaurant in Japan generally consists of a bowl of rice, three sides and miso soup of some sort.Those sides generally consist of something in season â€" the Japanese are big on seasonal availability of foods.What westerners are big on is having enough food to fill their bowls.Not that we’re greedy or anything but we tend to want the best value for our money â€" that makes good economic sense.Sing up for the best cooking classes London on Superprof.Unfortunately, that mindset has changed our relationship with food: the experience of dining matters less than the material value derived from it.That is another way that Japanese dining is fundamentally different than in the west: the quality of the experience is as important (or maybe more important) than the quantity of food consumed.To make that point, let us com pare the caloric content of sushi served in Japan versus what we are served in Japanese restaurants in the west:Tekka Maki, a type of tuna roll: 134 calories per servingTuna roll (western): 290 calories per servingUmekyu roll, made with pickled ume fruit and cucumber: 176 calories per servingDynamite roll, stuffed with prawn tempura and many other ingredients: 310 calories per servingNatto roll, made with fermented soybeans: 191 calories per servingSpider roll, made with breaded crab and avocado, daikon sprouts or cucumber: 400 calories per servingAnd then, there is the California roll; what most sushi lovers in the west consume, which differs vastly from the sushi that would be eaten in Japan.For one, it is rolled ‘inside out’, meaning the nori (seaweed) is concealed by the rice. This is done to appeal more to western senses.Additionally, the roll may be topped with other ingredients, such as salmon roe, and coated in roasted sesame seeds or in tabiko â€" what amounts to fish e ggs mixed with corn syrup and food colouring.That’s what that crunchy orange stuff on the outside of your sushi is.The second takeoff from Japanese sushi rolls is that it is stuffed with multiple ingredients; some may feature a condiment such as mayonnaise or wasabi.And they definitely feature ingredients that are not seasonal.One essential characteristic of authentic Japanese cuisine is that it relies heavily on fresh, seasonal ingredients sourced locally; something that we are only now really starting to take into account in our food choices.Join the discussion: what is traditional Japanese food?You may have beef in your ramen bowl but you are not likely to find western-sized steaks served in Japan Image by takedahrs from PixabayJapanese Cuisine: Let There Be Meat!Where meat lovers in the west are concerned, perhaps nothing could rank higher than a Japanese steakhouse.A typical menu would include several cuts of beef, all prepared differently â€" grilled, braised or fried, and l iberally sprinkled with Japanese words: teriyaki, okonomiyaki, soba, udon...We’ll talk about noodles in a mo; let’s talk about meat eating in Japan.Those fabled hibachi restaurants, so common in our corner of the world, are considered high-end in Japan; an exquisite dining experience that is not available everywhere.Even in Kobe, home to the world’s most expensive beef, you would be hard-pressed to find a western-sized portion of beef; the best sampling of Kobe beef one can hope for is thin slices on a skewer, sold be a certified vendor... and they are rather dear.That’s not to say that there are no beef dishes to be had in Japan: beef sukiyaki is widely available, as is hot pot with beef.Also learn all about Japanese food specialities...Likewise chicken: those plump pieces of white-meat chicken simmered in sweet teriyaki sauce is purely a western invention. Ditto the chicken stir-fry.You would not be likely to find any chicken on a restaurant menu anywhere in Japan - save f or maybe chicken katsu. Depending on where you are in Japan, the closest you might come to finding commercially prepared poultry might be from a street food vendor.These cuts tend to be a fairly equal balance of flesh and fat or gristle.The exception to that would be the chicken sashimi found in the Kyushu region: like the typical fish sashimi, this dish consists of thin, raw strips of chicken meat as well as chicken hearts. It’s not for the faint-hearted!Chicken is sold in food stores and generally cooked for holiday celebrations; true to Japanese ethos, the entire animal is consumed, except for the bones.What about noodles? They are very popular in Japan and served in a variety of ways... quite unlike the way they are served in the west.In Japan, Soba noodles are typically made of 85% buckwheat. In the west, we tend to prefer egg noodles, so most of our Japanese restaurants use that type of noodle in the place of authentic Soba noodles.It is more common for them to use Udon nood les; those are 100% wheat.In the restaurants we're familiar with, unless one orders a vegetarian noodle dish, those concoctions tend to involve some sort of meat; usually a substantial amount.By contrast, soba and udon noodles in Japan are seldom served with any meat; if there is any, it might be a thin slice of kamaboko (a processed fish product) or tempura soba, which features a large shrimp.Should you have the pleasure of touring in Japan, you might be quite surprised at the food typically on offer: sushi and sashimi, plain white rice, fresh seasonal vegetables â€" all served in such a way as to be visually appealing.Even the mochi you might order for dessert will be cute and appealing!However, you should be prepared for a completely different taste sensation than you’re used to... and, perhaps, way more raw fish than you ever expected to eat.Would you like to try authentic Japanese food?
