training ring

Where fighters spar

A training ring is an enclosed circular or rectangular area where animals or athletes practice skills under supervision.

Horses learn gaits and responses in training rings; boxers and wrestlers develop technique.

The contained space allows controlled repetition and close observation.

The young mare worked the training ring for an hour each morning.
