Women's Wrestling? That's right. And why not? Contact sports like women's wrestling are not for everyone, but the ladies that do it, do it because the love it. Why do they love it? Well, being that I have been in the sport for over 25yrs, and having made a living from it, I think it is safe to say that I know a thing or two about it.

Yes, women's wrestling, (also known as female wrestling or girl's wrestling) like other contact sports, is physically demanding and mentally challenging. The women that indulge in it are smart, competitive, creative and physical gals that love engaging in the challenges that women's wrestling offers.

In all the years I've been wrestling, it still provides a challenge to stay at the top of my game both mentally and physically, but it's also just plain fun!

Fitness Benefits

Women's wrestling has some great fitness benefits outside of just being great fun. It keeps you in excellent shape! Great muscle tone and great cardio! Plus, in this stressful world, it is a wonderful stress reliever! So why not women's wrestling? Let's just touch on a few items on health.

Women's Wrestling Provides Stronger Bones

In Pro Women's Wrestling, we constantly take what we call "bumps," or falls to the canvas. The benefits of these bumps are stronger, denser bones, which we all know that women need, especially as they get older.

Women's Wrestling Body Awareness And Confidence.

The body awareness you acquire is tremendous and carries over into all walks of life and all other sports.

Women's wrestling is also a huge confidence builder! Not only with some of the moves, which I call fear moves, but also in knowing that you have trained up and can compete, the confidence built up in engaging in women's wrestling is a great character builder. Just learning some of the moves is a wonderful confidence builder, knowing that you can take care of yourself and that you have excellent body awareness.

Women's Wrestling Offers Self Defense

And may I also mention self-defense! Lots of women are timid by nature, and that is a beautiful thing, but that can leave them wide open and venerable. Women's wrestling helps them develop the skill and confidence to protect themselves!

Women's Wrestling Offers Stress Relief

And again, stress relief! Go pound around on the mat, take some bumps, take someone down or be taken down, wrestle with all your strength, not thinking about anything else, except how to over-power or out-maneuver your opponent, and when it's all said and done, you're relaxed, calm, balanced. You don't need pills, video games, or TV. Just what comes natural to all of us, like kids-- just wrestle! It's super fun and aren't we all just kids anyway?

Women's Wrestling Offers Fetishes

I know you might be thinking - Oh, women's wrestling is a fetish. Might I say, yes, you're right. But there are also car fetishes, book fetishes-- you name it there is a fetish for it.

I will say though that just because we are women who wrestle, there will always be a sexual overtone just by association. That is simply human nature. If a woman is in the business of selling real estate, a lawyer or just selling hot dogs, there will always be some kind of sexual overtone. We are sensual creatures, and thank God for that! We understand this and don't care what certain societies label us. We love the fight game, studying our craft and looking damn good doing it!

Women's Wrestling And Mixed Wrestling

What's more fun than to really get competitive against the physically stronger sex! Either if you're in for a fun semi-competitive match with your husband or boyfriend, or a real competitive match, you're sure to not only learn your strong suits but you can improve on your weaker ones.

So that is why Women's Wrestling! Give it a try Ladies-- you just might discover the beautiful inner Diva you've been looking for your whole life!
