If silence were golden, then for all the years that she has wrestled big but said very little, the regal Slovakian wrestler Klaudia should own Fort Knox.
When viewing her stellar women’s wrestling record, it’s an exercise spun in gold.
With awe, respect and wonder, I have been following Klaudia for almost two decades. She is living proof that women can wrestle at a high level in our sport well into their forties or fifties.
Like so many other Fem Competitors, Klaudia’s wrestling adventures has taken her all over the world having agreements with various private women’s wrestling companies and interesting industry leaders.
I’ve seen her wrestle at TPC, AS Film, Festelle, APL, Female Wrestling Zone, DWW and others. Her reputation is that she’s skilled, tough, resourceful and classy.

In a career that spans approximately 20 years, Klaudia has wrestled against some of the major industry names including Xana, Julia, Linda, Zara, Orsi, Star, Ina Black, Inferno, Rebekah, Lydia, Peril, Lourdes at APL; Bianca, Mary Roming, Laura, Sophie and Renata at TPC along with a laundry list of other stars.
The one thing that has puzzled me a little is her very quiet demeanor. I have heard more words from one female competitor in a ten minute interview, than I’ve heard from Klaudia in viewing her matches that span years. Truly.
I know we should be ourselves and be comfortable in our own skin but I’ve often wondered with Klaudia if she could have done a lot more if she engaged in more marketing and promotion, interviews and sessions. She clearly loves the sport so why not expand your audience?
Some of the experts can weigh in on this. The great filmmaker and Showman Maximus, Mel Brooks was quoted as saying “If you’re quiet, you’re not living. You’ve got to be noisy and colorful and lively.” His over the top films such as Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein were certainly a testament to that.
On the other hand I read quotes from spiritual wise men like Confucius who said “Silence is a true friend who never betrays.” There is also Lao Tzu who stated that “Silence is a source of great strength.”
Silence worked well for Klaudia. I just think that given her exceptional skills and beauty that her wrestling career would have skyrocketed if she was more publicly gregarious.
Like her persona, the country that she is from is somewhat silent in nature as well. When I read that she was Slovak, my initial thought was that the writer had abbreviated Czechoslovakian. Not the case. Slovakia is its own country with its own people and culture.
Female Competition International not only wants to entertain but educate as well. Let’s travel to Slovakia and it’s okay; you don’t have to remain silent.
Always a great foundation builder, let’s listen to Wikipedia build us a strong foundation. “Slovakia is a sovereign state in Central Europe. It has a population of over five million and an area of about 49,000 square kilometer.
Slovakia is bordered by the Czech Republic and Austria to the west, Poland to the north, Ukraine to the east and Hungary to the south. The largest city is the capital, Bratislava, and the second largest is Košice. Slovakia is a member state of the European Union, Eurozone, Schengen Area, NATO, the United Nations, the OECD and the WTO, among others. The official language is Slovak, a member of the Slavic language family.
After WWI and the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the nation of Slovaks and Czechs established their mutual state – Czechoslovakia. A separate Slovak state existed during World War II and was a client state of Nazi Germany (from 1939 to 1944). In 1945 Czechoslovakia was reestablished. The present-day Slovakia became an independent state on 1 January 1993 after the peaceful dissolution of Czechoslovakia.
Slovakia is a high-income advanced economy with one of the fastest growth rates in the European Union and the OECD.”
Excellent.
It’s always good to listen to other great minds so let’s continue in our exploration of this special country by hearing from The American Central Intelligence Agency. “The peaceful “Velvet Revolution” swept the Communist Party from power at the end of 1989 and inaugurated a return to democratic rule and a market economy. On 1 January 1993, the country underwent a nonviolent “velvet divorce” into its two national components, Slovakia and the Czech Republic.”
Like the heart shaped tattoo Klaudia often displayed on her upper thigh, now it’s time for some fun.
A popular travel site lonelyplanet.com speaks in a loud voice as though it read my mind. “No, it isn’t a province of the Czech Republic. Going strong over two decades as an independent state after the breakup of Czechoslovakia, Slovakia out-trumps the Czechs for ancient castles, which festoon the country like cherries on cakes, and boasts nature far wilder than its western neighbors. It savors wine over beer.
Slovakia’s small size is possibly its biggest attraction. You can hike woodsy waterfall-filled gorges one day and yodel from peaks soaring more than 2500m the next. Dinky capital Bratislava is awash with quirky museums and backed by thick forests. With its rabbit-warren Old Town, it might just win world prize for most cafes per city resident.”
Well. If Klaudia ever decided to speak about her country, she sure would have a lot to talk about.
Fortunately Klaudia continues to grapple and while she loves the semi-competitive world at APL in Portugal, she still will from time to time step outside the pond as she did when she wrestled super star Ariel at Female Wrestling zone. Make no mistake about it; our Slovak maiden still has the magic.
Robert W. Service was a British-Canadian poet and writer who has often been called “the Bard of the Yukon”. He is best known for his poems “The Shooting of Dan McGrew” and “The Cremation of Sam McGee”, from his first book, Songs of a Sourdough.
He was quoted as saying something that may lend to the thinking that maybe Klaudia has the right idea. Here it goes.
“It’s the steady, quiet, plodding ones who win in the lifelong race.”
Given how long Klaudia has been competing at a very high level, I think we could amend that. Not only do they win the life-long race but the eternal marathon too.

Some may find other women’s wrestling sites erotic in nature. If you are offended by depictions of women wrestling in erotic situations, please exercise caution in visiting women’s wrestling sites.
