About Us

About GurlFytrz
We are helping each other more through friendships, spirituality, groups we are involved with together, and tragedies we move through together. We are realizing we can do this journey because we have angels to pick us up when we are down, we have best friends we can call and cry to, and they listen. We are supporting each other more now than before.

We are becoming stronger but more compassionate, independent but not bitter about it, passionate in what we do, because we are learning to believe in ourselves as women, and because of all this we are becoming more successful at our jobs and better mothers, even if we are single. Having better relationships because we deserve the best and demand it. We are all on our own journeys, and we are strong, independent fighters of OUR lives, “GurlFytrz.” We are capable, and the world is watching us move up to another level now, yeah right now...

Women these days need to keep an attitude at all times with work and personal challenges. Nothing will slow me down. Second place is not an option! I am not just talking about sports, but life in general. To be the best mother, the best at your job, to have the best communication with your loved ones, to obtain confidence in areas of your life that make you feel good, so others look at you and say, “She is a fighter” ...a GURLFYTR!

About Marcia
Marcia Mason, Founder of GurlFytrz, is a powerful example of the GurlFytrz attitude. She is a 26-year veteran of the Martial Arts, and holds a 4th degree Black Belt in two styles! Marcia has overcome some deep challenges in her life, and wants others to feel as empowered as she does - and that one can overcome anything with the right attitude. Marcia retired from Sport Karate in 2008 after 25 years of competing locally and Nationally. Marcia is managing her sons full contact kickboxing career, coaching her daughters open sport karate competitions, and working on obtaining funders for Safe Ranch. She plans to still compete occasionally but feels she needs to put in more time obtaining funding, promoting the team and networking with other school owners so eventually there will be hundreds of schools around the nation offering martial Arts training to those in need.

Marcia also is one of the top competitors nationally in a sport called “O-Mok-See,” or Indian games on horseback. It is a very fast, fun, and dangerous sport, teaming horse and rider to challenge them against the clock doing a variety of speed events.
