Whip Fighting- A uniquely Australian method of Stress Relief.

‘It’s amazing really’, she muses, ‘when the fights over and the fencing helmets come off, the breathless belligerents are often highly emotional, sometimes sobbing with relief and almost always laughing and hugging’.

Nemeth reckons her uniquely mock-violent method of stress management might not meet with enthusiastic approval in more easoteric psychiatric circles but has seen some wonderful and heart warming results.

Whip Boxing. ‘It’s noisy, the crack of the tip two inches from your ear really tickles you up’, she enthuses, but no one gets hurt she emphasises, ‘except for some ego’s perhaps’.

The originator of Whip Boxing Gayle J. Nemeth, is a master whip maker and in considerable global demand, her reputation is far-reaching and diverse. Invest even a short amount of time travelling in The Outback or anywhere there are cattle and the cattlemen that drive them and probably a cowboy will be expertly wielding his most essential tool at a bunch of rampant bullocks, a Nemeth stock whip.A seven foot kangaroo hide stock whip also makes a unique fighting tool.
