Combining boxing and dance is unconventional and out of the box, as they are not usually seen together - a dancer wouldn't typically be found in the ring, and a boxer might not step into a dance class.

After six months of interviews and research, with Darren Hamilton a British Super Lightweight Boxing Champion, and Jasmine Haque, a dance teacher at the Werburghs "Find Your Fierce" dance club, this project uses typography to illustrates the grace in boxing and the ferocity in dancing.
