Another thing we didn’t know about Desreta is that nobody bett’ not ever try to mess with her, or her babies, because she can put a beat down on you something serious! She’s a trained black belt martial artist, who was trained by the Black Karate Federation (they trained Bruce Lee back in the day). She is now with Inner City Martial Arts. Isn’t that something?
