A lot of people have been asking me if/when I am moving to the USA now that I have signed a contract with Invicta. My answer is Im not going ANYWHERE! I have everything I need, right here in Brisbane, at both Integrated MMA and Team Compton Training Centre. I am blessed to already have the best of the best, coaching me and guiding me every day. Why would I need to go somewhere else? Sure, there are gyms in the states that have a higher public profile than our little home, however that doesnt make the level of coaching any better... IMA Head Coach, Dan Higgins, is the BEST MMA Coach in Australia. He has achieved elite levels in multiple disciplines, he has fought in the USA for the biggest MMA gym in the world, he has been graded by some of the most famous coaches in the world. He has helped me evolve my game into that of an entirely different fighter, in less than 2 years! He has brought my grappling and wrestling abilities from next to nothing, to being an incredibly strong skill set. And he still teaches me something new every time I train with him. Adrian Pang, is Australias best lightweight, and current One FC fighter. He has held multiple Aussie titles, as well as the Legend FC LW title. He is the most dangerous man in this country and also one of the best coaches. There is a reason he was asked to coach the TUF Oz vs Canada house! He is a picture of extreme dedication, never misses training, never falters, never slows down. Nelson Stewart, whilst he is not recognized by most, is a phenomenal grappler and boxer. No matter what I need to do, he is always there to help me. Whether its to roll with or hold pads for me when I am cutting weight. He has been with Coach Dan and Adrian for almost a decade, through thick and thin. He comes away to corner for every one of my fights and I know that no matter where the fight goes, he can talk me through it. Steve Compton has been coaching striking with Integrated MMA for a decade now and has been Adrian Pangs personal striking coach through all of his achievements. His style of striking is a blend of so many different styles, that it doesnt matter who you are, what your body type, what your existing ability is, he always has a way to combat and further it! Sean Hannam trained with Olympic boxers in Ireland and came over here with an untapped wealth of knowledge. He has brought me from being a punch shy girl, to having my striking style described as she punches like a man. Day in and day out, he is up before 4am to skip with me, run with me, watch me do bag work, hold pads, make me have rest days, and talk about xbox games. Every single day, I get to train with the best in the country. SO no..... I wont be going anywhere else!
