Rose Namajunas
Former flyweight champion Rose Namajunas may be known as ‘Thug Rose’ but in her private time away from fighting in the Octagon she actually enjoys more mellow pursuits, including being an accomplished classical pianist.
Namajunas’ mother tought her how to play piano when she was young and she would later go to a performing arts school, where she studied both classical and jazz piano.
“Not only can I express myself creatively on a piano but it stimulates my mind, helps coordination, and managing different things in my brain. You have to do your thinking ahead of time,” Namajunas told healthwellnesscolorado.com.
