About Me

I am the founder of Chicks that Kick, an idea that was conceived in 2001 when I began training and discovered the unique challenges that women face trying to gain experience in Muay Thai. The vision was to create an ongoing platform and opportunities for future generations of women.Chicks That Kick became a reality together with the founding team and continues to be possible because of the energy and commitment of outstanding women that volunteer their time towards presenting the most significant fight event in Ontario.To contact the team, please vist: www.chicksthatkick.com
