Violence thrives in silence. Connection creates protection.

One of the most powerful — and often overlooked — principles of empowerment self-defence is “Tell.”

Knowing who to tell, and trusting that you’ll be believed, supported, and never shamed, can make all the difference. It not only helps recovery after a traumatic experience, but can also shine a light on red-flag behaviour before it escalates.
When we share our stories, we realise we’re not alone. And when voices come together, they create strength, support, and change.

Recently, I adapted this principle for a group of 7–11-year-old girls. Using a fun, age-appropriate game and real-life scenarios, we explored who they could turn to if something didn’t feel right.

This is what teaching self-defence to young girls looks like: helping them recognise unhealthy behaviour, trust their instincts, and know that speaking up is a strength.

What does self-defence mean to you?

We believe it is more than physical technique — it’s confidence, boundaries and care that travel with you every day.

Our trauma-informed, evidence-based women's self-defence programmes in Leicestershire and the East Midlands blend situational awareness, verbal skills and physical drills so you leave feeling prepared and empowered beyond the training mat.

✨ “We are powerful.” ✨ Sometimes we just need a little reminder of the strength, resilience, and power we already carry.

Last week I had the pleasure of supporting my friend and fellow empowerment self defence instructor Maya .space at her workshop at The Bridge in London.

It’s always a joy to work alongside Maya — she has this calm, steady strength that instantly helps people feel comfortable. I always leave her sessions having learned something new or with a fresh idea sparked!

And sadly we didn’t manage to grab a photo of us in her very cool T shirts… so you’ll just have to picture it 😄💪

Are these just messy squiggles, or could they be your first self-defence lesson? This drawing came from a lively session with girls aged 9–10, as we explored which parts of the body are vulnerable and which are strong enough to use in self-defence. It's all about empowering young girls to protect themselves with confidence!

We teach whole-person empowerment — awareness, boundary-setting, de-escalation and simple physical responses — so you leave feeling calmer, clearer and more confident. Our trauma-informed, evidence-based approach has helped past participants across the East Midlands report measurable gains: higher situational confidence and ways to manage their anxiety.

As an instructor with experience of teaching a wide range of participants, I will tailor the material to suit you, and support steady progress at your pace.

We will be delivering 6 sessions of empowerment self-defence to their afterschool girls' group, teaching not just physical skills but increasing awareness of risk, effective boundary-setting and verbal skills to assert themselves amongst other exciting topics!
