Men dominate in the KB program at my dojo we have a lot of teenage girls and women in the tae kwon do and Krav maga programs, almost more women than men in TKD.

Cardio kickboxing - yes
Actual kickboxing - no.
I personally believe that cardio-kickboxing cheapens the sport. |

MMA for females is growing too, and I think you're seeing that. See www.fightergirls.net
Good on 'em!
