(Cheryl Delio Malham)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cI invited Rachel to come and teach me privately here,\u201d said Delio Malham.<\/p>\n<p>She originally trained in karate for five years but gave it up as an Orange Belt when her best friend and karate partner moved to New York. Returned to the art, she knew she wanted an individualized training, so she reached out to Lavin for one-on-one lessons.<\/p>\n<p>After working with Lavin, Delio Malham realized the effectiveness of her teaching and the benefit of learning how to fight from someone with a widespread understanding of various styles. She also considered how other women could benefit from Lavin\u2019s teaching if there was a space available for classes. Studio DelCorpo was the perfect fit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[Lavin] has this extensive fighting background, so that\u2019s where the idea came from for Girls Fight Club,\u201d said Delio Malham.<\/p>\n<p>With the advent of the program this past March, Delio Malham and Lavin set out with a few goals in mind to make the classes most effective and comfortable for their students. First, they decided to make Girls Fight Club specifically for women. After visiting other studios in the past, Delio Malham had an image in mind of what she wanted and didn\u2019t want Girls Fight Club to become.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI thought it would be more comfortable for the ladies to not have to worry about [men] being super-guys, alpha-males next to them, and sweating on them [or where] the music is cranked and there are black lights,&#8221; Delio Malham said.<\/p>\n<p>Lavin\u2019s desire to lead a woman-focused fighting class stems from an experience she had as a child, where she felt unprepared to defend herself.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was attacked when I was in eighth grade. And I decided after that that was never going to happen again. So, that really began my interest,\u201d Lavin said. \u201cI think it\u2019s really important to teach women how to defend themselves and to learn how to utilize their own power and strength.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Following the same guidelines as Delio Malham\u2019s Bespoke Fitness\u00ae brand, they also wanted Girls Fight Club to allow each student to gain individualized, face-to-face training. They accomplish this by keeping their class size to about a dozen women.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re getting individual attention because of the small size. You\u2019re not just getting lost in a room where somebody is yelling at you punching combinations,\u201d Delio Malham said.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_73952\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-73952\" style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-73952 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/news.medill.northwestern.edu\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/box-1331470_1920.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1275\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.medill.northwestern.edu\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/box-1331470_1920.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/news.medill.northwestern.edu\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/box-1331470_1920-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/news.medill.northwestern.edu\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/box-1331470_1920-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/news.medill.northwestern.edu\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/box-1331470_1920-1024x680.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-73952\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Boxing gloves hung up after a long workout. (Andreas)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Finally, Delio Malham and Lavin wanted to create a safe space for all their students, regardless of their fighting and workout experience.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll levels of fitness are invited to attend,\u201d said Lavin.<\/p>\n<p>They appear to be successful in creating this safe space, because they have regulars ranging in age from college students to women in their late-60\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think this is a better, safe environment,\u201d said Delio Malham. \u201cIt\u2019s welcoming because Rachel is welcoming.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For those interested in joining this community of women learning how to fight, Girls Fight Club\u2019s sign up is available online through Dabble or Classpass. The first 30 minutes of class from 6-6:30 p.m. costs $20. For the hardcore women out there, looking for a full hour workout, they can extend the class until 7 p.m. for an additional $10.<\/p>\n<p>Delio Malham and Lavin expect that it will eventually expand to multiple days a week as their clientele grows.<\/p>\n<p>So, go ahead.
