I really like the idea of boxing but I think I would be really terrible at taking shots to the face, although I would love to learn how to take care of myself, I guess it's a double edged sword.
U'll find somewhere mate!Where abouts are you from?Im from the North-East of England and i went to me old boxing Gym after i left it back in the days and was welcomed back with open arms.And i only wanted to just train up again,it was no problem with them.Their have a good Pedigree in the gym as well but there still had time for people who wanted to take up the great sport as a hobbie!It might be a good idea to get yourself a good size punching bag for the mean time until you find the right gym.After all it'll give you some good practise.Good Luck!
