Kicking her way to the top

Ingrid Katzberg,(left) the Canadian women’s
lightweight kickboxing champion, divides her time
between training for the Japanese championships in
April /89 and completing her second year of Arts
courses at Cap.

Ingrid began kickboxing one and a half years ago;
she has five years of karate under her belt already, and
recently discovered a new variation of the Japanese
martial art, called shoot boxing, which she says is
harder and involves more contact. The 5’4" fighter won
that title in Japan in three, three-minute rounds.

Kickboxing is still a relatively unpopular sport for
women — Ingrid laments the lack of sufficient
opponents — but is beginning to attract more attention.
Ingrid says “The girls are so aggressive. The guys are
cautious and pick their spots (to attack) more. We were
really going at each other.” She adds, “I don’t want to do
that. I want to fight like a man — with style.” Katzberg
won the B.C. title at SFU last March, and has her far-
ranging sights on the world title.
