Our March student of the month is @amber_kristine_!!! Amber has shown incredible dedication and progress since joining last March. Get to know her a little better here and be sure to say hi next time you see her on the mats!
When did you start training?
We signed up with FactoryX last March. Going to kickboxing with @benjamin__ba is where the fun all started.
Why did you start training?
I didn’t really have a good reason not to. Ben was signing up and I knew what his goals were. I signed up thinking this would be a fun way to reach my health and fitness goals. I didn't have any expectations at that point.
What are your hobbies outside of the gym?
Loving on my pups and being outdoors with Ben and our babes.
Do you have any goals related to training/competing you’d like to share?
Getting my black belt is a long-term goal and in the meantime, I hope to be a reason that more women give BJJ a try.
Who inspires you?
This is hard to answer b/c the older I get I find that I’m inspired by a variety of people all the time.
What is your favorite food?
I would have to sum up my answer with Mexican food or else I could debate myself on this all day.
Favorite movie?
Edwards Scissorhands
Favorite book?
Currently reading Atomic Habits by James Clear
Favorite holiday?
Thanksgiving. Food and Family. @ Factory X Muay Thai / MMA / BJJ
