ManTamers Academy

By Ken Phillips and Wanda Lea

Wanda (one of our authors) and Clare began teaching women how to handle men in a specific set of classes: Trap and Tap, Capture and Crush, Defeat and Dominate and finally, The Mixed Wrestling Dominatrix Certification Class.

The women showcased in this book received individualized instruction so they can take control of the guys in their lives and of men in general. In some cases the women learned to simply defend themselves with ballbusting and specific scissor-locks. In other cases, the women went on to defeat their men one-on-one starting at 'even'. We also have Readers' Choice Profiles which introduce you to legendary women that we've previously showcased. See what these amazing ladies are up to now!

I have been making friends with strong, skilled women for two decades. I have met dozens of these women and others I have gotten to know quite well over the phone or online. The women featured explain why they started learning to kick butt and their favorite moments as an Alpha-Female. It's MY passion and you'll see why I love it so much when you read this boo!

Clare 5’3 ¼" 139lbs 51yo (in 2023)

(First we have Clare’s bio/profile and then we have her involvement leading man-taming classes)

From Clare:

We go to great lengths in society to protect male egos. Many parents, wives, girlfriends and sisters come up with all kinds of excuses why the men in their lives are not coming in 1st place or succeeding the way they envisioned they would. This is a somewhat recent and growing phenomenon because the roles of men and women used to be different, but that’s not the case so much any more.

It was in late 2001 when Andrew (the author) 1st contacted me and I had just turned thirty-one-years-old. It was during the beginning days of the internet and I had posted something on some type of messageboard about our upcoming 4-dojo contest in southwestern Michigan. Somewhere in the post, I wrote that there would be 120-140-160-180-200-220 and 220lb-plus weight classes for grappling, point fighting, board breaking and boards. Andrew contacted me because he could tell that there would be males and females all in the same classes and it was possible that there could be some battle of the sexes going on.

Andrew made the 150-mile treck to see something that could possibly happen (intergender competition).

From Andrew

Yes, I was that inquisitive and desperate to experience some intergender competition in martial arts, lifting or wrestling! For me, a 150-mile drive was nothing, plus I was super-intrigued by Clare and her overall attitude along with what I saw of her pictures at the time. She also mentioned that it looked like she’d be in the same weight class as her 5’5" 138lb husband. Clarie, at the time, was in the mid-130’s and a couple inches shorter than Sam (her husband) and they were parents of a four-year-old daughter.

Clare, Sam, Anthony, Jack and Blair were all competing in the under-140lb weight class with Anthony being the oldest at forty-four, followed by Sam at thirty-four, Jack at twenty-two and Blair at eighteen. Thirty-one-year-old Clare was also ready to go as the only female in the group.

The different weight classes had a different order for their events and this group went from grappling to stand-up-point-fighting to forms to board breaking. This was a practical style and in some senses, almost a pre-cursor to MMA because the combat aspects were stressed MUCH more than the forms or board breaking. In their classes, these students spent a ton of time on physical hand-to-hand combat.

There was a Round Robin set-up to grappling where each person faced all of the others in their class. Clare’s first round opponent was Jack, a 5’8" 136lb twenty-two-year-old who looked very awake and ready, but not very well-built.

As they got down to their chosen grappling gear and got near one another, it was clear that while she was five-inches taller, Clare had an advantage when it came to having a strong base (thick legs) and more of an athlete’s posture. This was 12:00 of grappling, tap-outs whenever necessary. While the person with the greater number of tap-outs would usually win, the referee could over-rule that outcome.

My entire trip and all the research up to this point were smiling brightly as soon as this match began! Clare took control of Jack’s head and neck and did not let go for over two-minutes. By the time she dug her forearm into his neck, Jack must have known that he was on borrowed time. He tapped out, leaving Clare with over a minute left in the 1st round to try and extend her dominance and her lead. Clare did both by making Jack submit to an arm-bar near the end of the first round.

The second round was more of the same with Clare wrapping his legs into a hold where Jack seemed to be in a deep form of hell. He tapped out to that New-to-me-hold and then Clare made everyone wince when she wrenched Jack’s arm behind his back and scissored his stomach for the 4th submission in 2 rounds.

Jack laid on the mat during the break as Clare had troubles of her own. Clare’s hair was a bit long to wear down, so she had a band holding her hair in place, but her hair seemed to come out anyways. She battled harder with her hair  than she had been with Jack. Finally she seemed to get it worked out.

Jack, however, was not able to get things sorted out. He submitted the 3rd round and the match to Clare. Without making much eye contact he shook her hand and Clare smiled, but as she came nearby I could sense her frustration that her hair was now fixed, yet there was no male opponent left to vanquish.

Jack recovered but he lost his 2nd match in a close 3-1 outcome before facing Sam, Clare’s husband (at the time). Sam vs Jack was a very hard fought match where Sam squeezed out a 4-3 victory. Everyone was watching closely and I had the good fortune to be sitting right next to Clare. I just had to ask what she thought since SHE crushed Jack and Sam barely squeezed out a win against Jack. I will never forget Clare’s response;

Andrew, I’ve practiced a lot with my husband, but we’ve avoided that full head-on husband vs wife genuine match. I think he avoided it because he had a fear of the outcome. I did not avoid it, but I probably, deep down, wanted to delay it because I knew I could leave my husband either sucking his thumb or needing me to dig up one of our daughter’s old pacifiers. I can’t picture Sam losing to me, but I think we’re about an hour away from it happening..

This was everything I had hoped for!

By the time Clare was set to face her husband she had beaten Jack and she had also beaten the forty-four-year-old Anthony 3-0, getting one submission each round. Clare controlled the match from start to finish, but Anthony showed strong defenses and a seemingly huge desire not to lose too horrendously to a lady. Nevertheless, Clare handled Anthony with ease which Sam had the victory vs Jack and he had edged out Blair, the eighteen-year-old competitor.

The 1st round of the husband vs wife match was everything I hoped for. The submissions were fast and they were carbon copies of one another. Clare made her despondent, frustrated husband tap out twice to identical arm-bars. Once these were applied the submissions came quickly, but the fighting to get to that point was fierce.

In the 2nd round, Sam actually took control for the 1st minute, but then the tables turned and he paid the severe price for bringing out his wife’s competitive side. Clare reversed Sam’s advantage and she ended with with her legs around his mid-section, leading to two minutes of male-hell. And then, Clare took her big chance and swung her legs around Sam’s head and neck. Everyone could see Clare lock-on the headscissors and the referee was looking right at Sam to see if he wanted to submit. Even though the ref’s eyes were fixed on Sam, his loss of consciousness was instantaneous and lasted only seconds...but enough was enough....Sam had passed out.

The round was ended, Clare checked on her husband, but Sam said (rudely) I’m fine and he bargained with the ref to still be able to fight the 3rd round. Down 0-3 and probably somewhat shaken, Sam got ready for four more minutes vs his wife. Meanwhile, I figured that Clare was either ready to ease off on her beaten husband or she was made at him
