AILSA
Ailsa is the founder of Hot Girl Boxing, a FLINTA Boxing Club operating in London and Glasgow.
A (semi) retired amateur boxer, Ailsa found a love and a home in boxing. Boxing spaces are heavily cis-male dominated spaces, and the barriers for people falling outside of that group are high. So she created Hot Girl Boxing, sharing the joy, the camp and sense of belonging to everyone, not just the cis-het men.
For any battle needing to be fought, in or out of the ring, Ailsa’s in your corner.
