This is Christina’s favorite song
My name is Christina Riddering. I am a 25 year old female kickboxer and MMA fighter. My husband and I own a Pit training facility in Atascadero. This tough and violent sport has taken me all around the world, from Guatamala to Thailand.
I’m not sure how I fell in love with this crazy sport. I think I started because I wanted to make sure I could adequately defend myself, and ended up with a hobby that I desired to do all the time.
