Bam Bam Bam

This post may come as a surprise to a few of you out there. Believe it or not, I recently took up Muay Thai which is a form of mixed martial arts originating in Thailand. The first class was interesting. I walked into the gym and found about 10 dudes kicking bags and even a couple guys exchanging blows in the ring. It took me about 15 seconds to figure out that I was the only chick.  My initial reaction was to run like hell for the door. But before I could even turn around they had spotted me and there was no turning back. I was 'greeted' with smiles and an "Oh snap, there's a chick here!" Something inside me felt like I had to prove myself.  I ended up making it through all 2 hours of class and even had a good time. So now I'm hooked and have battle scars to prove it...
