{Girls like...Roller Derby!} Guest Post with Roxy from grrfeisty

Here is Miss Roxy from grrfeisty!  I met her a long time ago when I noticed that she was a fellow teacher and blogger.  It's nice to have teacher friends that are as creative and fun as Roxy is!  Lately, I have admired her as a Roller Derby girl...that sport sounds so awesome and challenging, and she's here to tell you a little bit about it!

I've been involved in Houston Roller Derby [houstonrollerderby.com] for almost a year now.  Reasons why I like it?
The sport is completely empowering! You are constantly playing and practicing with strong, independent women, and if you weren't one already, it definitely rubs off :)
Meet your wild and dangerous side! So you didn't think you could take a skate to your hip bone? Stomach? Face? Who knew!
And although Roller Derby may sound completely tough, it's got a real retro theme! So every once in a while you get to look super cute [and not sticky and sweaty from a scrimmage!].

A lot of cities of recreational leagues you can check out, and a league you can join or try our for. Research what's going on in your part of town. If you are at all feisty, maybe Roller Derby is for you ;)
