Joanna Calderwood
Joanna Calderwood stumbled into her mixed martial arts career by chance. Her mother encouraged her to accompany her brother to a class so he wouldn't feel lonely. Joanna fell in love with fighting and convinced her mom to let her swap swimming lessons for martial arts training.
Calderwood holds the distinction of being the first Scottish female professional mixed martial artist. She debuted with the UFC as part of The Ultimate Fighter season 20 and is still striving for her first title shot.
