Oh hey. I have a fight.

Technically it is a Muay Thai tournament. And I have ALWAYS wanted to do one. But there is nothing like this up north. So guess we just have to travel to Orlando.

In 3 days 🙂

It has been 3 years since I have done any competition and it feels like no time has passed. I always have trained hard, even through the pandemic. But my style has shifted so much in the years following my son. Ground work throws my back out, so I gravitate to stand up. Especially after losing my only thai fight before. I finally spent time learning the rules and the differences between kickboxing and Muay Thai; I really feel good. I will always be a more kickboxing style fighter (sorry not sorry), but I can see where I need to improve for specifically Muay Thai. Clinch needs to be tighter, my showman ship needs to change; take forward steps, not bounce around etc.
*and please do not try and double leg her *

But I feel good. I am so ready to get back in.

Mentally I still feel fucked, but I just love fighting and feel ready for that again. The past 2 years have really been a trying time. Between all of my grandparents dying. One of my close friends and my brother’s father dying. Changing gyms, and then that gym shut down for Covid. Some violent traumatic events occurring for several months. Moving out of our place without a new one lined up(it worked out amazingly actually) and now drama at our home gym causing us to leave days before my fight. We can call it a really bad line up of events.

But I am still so excited to fight. Let’s just pray my toddler doesn’t act like an idiot while we are there. Or run away. Cause we have no sitter for this fight lol.

Thank you to anyone that read this far. And also thank you to all of my amazing sponsors.

New Year, New Gym

I have a new gym!

And no, not new like “new year new me” temporary new gym. Me and my husband are renting space to have our own gym to train clients out of. Right now we just a have a few classes, but hoping to find other trainers to join in and fulfill their passions.

I have been a group fitness/ martial arts instructor for around 6 years cumulatively. I very much enjoy teaching others, and helping them to find themselves. Not everyone wants to fight, but pretty much everyone needs to hit a heavy bag once in a while for stress. I can teach you how to do that properly and safely. As well as a truck load of other things.

I offer group training and personal training, at my gym, virtually, or at your house. As well as my women’s only beginner kickboxing classes; every Wednesday at 9am and Thursday at 6pm.

My Husband is also teaching Muay Thai here on Tuesdays. Each week we add a little more equipment to the space. Slowly and surely coming together!

Check out my classes here.

 

 

 

The cafe we are  inside of is the best healthy place a round. So make sure if you are in the Hampton NH area you check out Hampton Nutrition.  They have some bomb tea drinks and salads here.  

We used our old fight shirts to line the back wall, and added some of our medals too(it was so bare and white as you can see). Hopefully going to add some funky lighting next and posters too. 

We had pretty much all of the gear from traveling and training, but we are trying to make it look good and like a nice boutique place. Soon we will have a wall instead of curtains.

I am just so excited. I want to teach and coach other women. Not just to be fighters but to feel strong and powerful.

I get my leggings from Grrrl. In case you are wondering.
