In the late '90's, when I was still living in Dayton, Ohio, I used to take regular 3+ hour weekend trips to Coldwater, Michigan to train at Dan Severn's pro wrestling and MMA camp. This was before there was an MMA school on every corner like there is now, so there really weren't any other options if you were interested in MMA.
Anyways, Dan Severn was rarely ever there, and his head trainer was Becky Levi, who is also a Judo black belt that was a National champ and just an all around athlete. I'm 6'3" and Becky was only a few inches shorter than me but very muscular and thick, and she used to toss me around like I was a half full sack of groceries. I would come back to Dayton every Monday limping around and walking like I was the victim of a prison rape. Those were the days...
