How Coach Walter Keeps Practical Boxing Alive with Forento

Meet Coach Walter

For over three decades, martial arts have been the heartbeat of Coach Walter’s life. His journey began with Capoeira, a discipline he helped popularize in Italy as one of the country’s first non-Brazilian instructors. Over time, his expertise grew to include Kickboxing, where he earned the prestigious WAKO British Championship, and eventually Practical Boxing, a unique fighting style that blends bare-knuckle boxing, wrestling, and self-defense techniques.

For Walter, martial arts are more than competition or technique. They are a way to inspire confidence, discipline, and personal growth in his students. Whether coaching children or adults, his mission is to make martial arts accessible and transformative for everyone.

Carrying on the Practical Boxing Legacy

The late Chris Price, Walter’s mentor and collaborator, developed Practical Boxing as a system for real-world survival and combat. Rooted in South London’s toughest neighborhoods, it combines the precision of boxing, the raw power of bare-knuckle fighting, and street-ready techniques.

After Chris’s passing during the COVID-19 pandemic, Walter became the sole living instructor of Practical Boxing. With a growing global audience reaching out to him, Walter realized he had both a mission and an opportunity: to preserve Practical Boxing’s legacy by teaching it online.

Taking Practical Boxing Online

Walter initially shared his expertise through in-person classes and YouTube videos. While effective, these methods couldn’t meet the needs of students worldwide who wanted structured, detailed instruction.

That’s when he turned to Forento. With its intuitive tools and streamlined interface, Forento allowed Walter to create a professional digital dojo. “It’s the best and simplest website builder I’ve found so far,” Walter shares. “Forento helped me speed up my workflow and save time.”

Walter’s platform now offers step-by-step lessons, guiding students through the foundations of Practical Boxing and beyond. From street-punching techniques to full-body combat training, his courses provide practical, adaptable skills that anyone can learn at their own pace.
