A good friend of mine, and fellow columnist for the Red Bluff Daily News, also happens to be the mother of one of the students who is taking the lead on the Eskimo Warrior documentary film. She has an excellent blog (in fact- she inspired me to do one). Check it out-

About Me
- Avery Vilche
- Red Bluff, CA, United States
- I am a female cage fighter who is working with Liz Merry to complete a documentary about my journey and experiences competing in the World Eskimo Indian Olympics in Fairbanks, Alaska in July of 2008. As for my background- *I wrestled for Chico State (most of my 11 matches were against men) *I was a Golden Gloves Champion (amateur boxing) *I was an IKF (International Kickboxing Federation) Bantamweight champion I retired from all of the above due to some injuries, but I always wanted to get back into fighting. After several years of healing, I felt like I could step back into the ring. But what I really wanted was to try UFC style fighting. I got so excited every time I watched a fight. I felt like I could do this- it's REAL fighting- a combination of boxing (my first love), kickboxing, wrestling and submissions. I always wanted to choke someone out- here was my chance! I had my first fight in October of 2007, and it was a BLAST! I won and came out of the match fairly unscathed. I've had a few fights since then and am always looking for more.
