@coach-a-k
The girl on top. Her fight record is 1-1. I plan on making it 1-2 for her on October 20th, 2018, in Murfeesboro, TN @ Jonathan Ivey’s Cage Fighting Championships.
....update...broke my leg during sparring on 10/09...landed wrong on a judo throw...💔too soon to try to be funny about it...
First 3 steps to kicking ass at the mma gym... according to only me.
1. No pink anything.
I know there is an overabundance of pink boxing gloves, Hello Kitty handwraps, cutsie shin guards...It is very difficult to find mma equipment for women that isn’t pink. Do try. Pink is for guys who try to convince others how confident they are about their sexuality plus, it’s an old trend anyway. Pink is not new black. Black is always darn black. Do coordinate though! All my equipment is red, white, and black, and my nail color matching my mma gloves spells out a great kick ass day.
2. You pick the partner.
This is for the dreaded time when coach says ...”partner up”. Whenever you can, do it quick, so you practice with who YOU want to practice with. If you are not quick enough and get asked by someone to partner...do say yes. Even if they are new, can’t hold pads, make weird noises, wear those silk Muay Thai shorts, or are smelly (this last rule does not apply to ground work- picking a partner for grappling is another topic in itself). It’s bitchy not to accept an ask, you don’t want to be bitchy.
But heck, just be confident and go ask someone to partner with you first. Resist an urge to punch someone if they say no....
3. Ignore the ranger panties.
It will be difficult, but keep telling yourself it is normal for a grown man to come to the gym in underwear. Also...close your eyes during squat time. Ranger panties are worn by two types: Connor McGregor wannabies and male military personnel (active and retired). Training with the 5th Group dudes brought to light two painful facts for me: One, I realized that my potty mouth is not potty at all and I really could fit the word fuck in a sentence in at least four more ways than I’ve been...and two, the lack of government’s funds to equip our soldiers with proper excersise apparel.
So those are just first steps on your road to badassery. You can find cool and cute un-pink fight wear at mmawarehouse.com and blackwidowcombatsports.com.

Why...I train to be an amateur MMA fighter...in 4 or 5 Paragraphs ( new to this with a language barrier !)
Alright. To set things straight from the start...I could take down a grown man in 30 seconds with a combo of my mad krav maga skills, my potty mouth, and a killer smile, but in no way I can say I’m a good mma fighter, not yet at least. But, I am a fighter! In this blog, I will share my thoughts on training mma as a determined female in a male dominated environment ( please look forward to my thoughts on ranger panties...uhmm) and give you ladies and gentlemen some advice on how to handle yourself in close combat situations with various range of opponents...tall, short, overly sweaty, big boned, long limbed (ugh), Justin Bieber 2007 hair, high school cool kids, hot guys, guys who like you, guys you like, girls you like and girls who like guys and that’s why they are in this gym to begin with...yey, it will be so much fun for me to share!
Let’s start! So, in February 2017 I randomly decided that I wanted to fight in a cage. Well, perhaps me saying that it happened “randomly” is not all together accurate as for about a month prior I considered training MMA to be my new hobby...alongside joining roller skating derby team or hunting . But on February 6th, MMA won! And why not the other two? Well, I am not into team sports and don’t think I would fit in well with the derby girls...or spandex.
As far as hunting...it was on the table until I found out that one cannot just leave a dead deer in the woods. I thought for a sec about strapping a deer carcass to the hood of my Honda Fit...and that was it...a big NO.
But I think it did land on MMA because, sadly, I wanted to impress all the dudes I work with...or at least make them think...wtf is wrong with her...utterly confuse people about who I am, because I am confusing and unpredictable. And lastly, the deal was sealed over some T&Ts with a friend who just soooo amazingly marveled at the idea of me learning martial arts that right there at that momemnt I decided that I would not stop until I was being stitched up after a cage fight.
And then...there is that last thing...that I really do not know why...why I always run hundred miles an hour and fill my days with pursuit of crazy goals. I am just not sure yet...
