Robert Osorio

Our Athlete of the Week is Robert Osorio, owner of the Osorio Training Center on Foothill Boulevard in Hayward. Robert has over 35 years of experience in teaching boxing, self-defense, building confidence, and mentoring individuals. On Thursday, July 11, Osario, family, friends, and associates held a fundraiser to give free boxing lessons to kids. His Beyond The Ring group already sponsors eight kids with a free after-school boxing program. Osario aimed to raise $25,000 to be able to provide a safe space and mentorship for even more kids under 18 years old. He says the kids who most need boxing and martial arts are the ones who cannot afford it.
