Congrats to 10th Planet Rochester's Ashley Kennedy on her promotion to Purple Belt!

[Chris Herzog]

I'm so proud to have promoted our first female Purple Belt! Smashley, as she's know here in Rochester, has been training with me for over seven years now! She's competed several times both against men and women and constantly impresses! Has to be one of my favorite promotions of all time!

I love how hard Ash has been pushin herself lately. She also made some huge changes in her diet and fitness and its shows!

Nothing like watchin Ash run it on dudes in the gym, I think I get more excited when she taps out bigger, stronger guys then she does.
