I’m Amia
Hey there, I’m Amia — the quiet girl with big dreams, a punchy right hook, and a serious love for hot chocolate and Harry Potter. ✨
I’m a Tulsa native, a mom of three, a kickboxing lover, a full-time life juggler, and on my martial arts journey. I grew up obsessed with competitive cheerleading, but when I met my husband, Randy — my very best friend and biggest hype man — I fell headfirst into the wild world of martial arts and combat sports. We’re coming up on ten years together of throwing punches, building dreams, raising babies, and sneaking in late-night Fortnite dates after bedtime.
Fun fact: I’ve been a licensed cosmetologist for 17 years. I still make house calls for my long-time clients because real connection matters to me — and because great hair is basically a superpower. When I recommend a product, you can bet I’ve actually tested it through workouts, toddlers, and everything in between.
When I’m not chasing kids or working up a sweat in the garage gym, you’ll usually find me lost in a book, plotting dream trips to travel the world, or buried under a half-finished DIY project.
Around here, I believe motherhood isn’t about losing yourself — it’s about growing into an even stronger, smarter, funnier version of who you already are.
I’m just here to share the real moments, the messy wins, and a whole lot of laughter along the way. 💖

About My Blog
Hi! I’m Amia — the voice behind The Kickboxing Mommy 💥
I’m a mom of three, wife to a professional kickboxer, and a fierce believer that motherhood doesn’t mean losing yourself — it means leveling up.
Growing up, I was all about competitive cheerleading — flips, stunts, long practices, and the thrill of performing. I briefly dipped into martial arts as a teen, but it wasn’t until my mid-20s, when I met my husband (a serious fighter from a family full of martial artists), that I really fell in love with combat sports.
We spent weekends ringside, traveling to events, and watching fights like most people binge-watch Netflix. Eventually, I traded my cheer shoes for gloves, and kickboxing became a huge part of my life.
How The Kickboxing Mommy Came To Be
In 2020, I was pregnant with my second child and — like the rest of the world — stuck at home during the COVID lockdown. With gyms closed and nowhere to train, my husband and I converted our garage into a home gym. And yes… I kept kickboxing through pregnancy. 🤰🥊
There was no guidebook for kickboxing during pregnancy. No blog. No YouTube rabbit hole to fall into. So I wrote my own story — one punch, one kick, and one contraction at a time. Just a lot of listening to my body, trusting my husband’s guidance, and showing up for myself every day. It was empowering, challenging, and honestly? Life-changing.
That’s when The Kickboxing Mommy was born.
