7:30PM Thursday 27 November 2014 Bar21
Once described as a “nerdy kid who couldn’t fight her way out of a wet paper bag”, Rosi Sexton has had an unlikely career. On 11th December, she’ll talk about her journey from PhD in theoretical computer science to becoming the UK’s first female UFC fighter. Along the way, she'll take a skeptical look at martial arts and the self-defence industry, talk about why being punched in the face doesn’t feel like you might expect, and discuss some of the lessons she’s taken away from 15 years in the Mixed Martial Arts world.
