Located in Toms River, New Jersey, “Girl Fight” is America’s leading all-female Muay Thai Kickboxing academy. The academy was opened in 2009 by Prairie Rugilo, former WKA champ, who has become the first female to fight and win a title belt at MSG, been inducted into the NJ Martial arts hall of fame, and became a licensed Inspector and Judge for the State Athletic commission.
