Amazonia - School of Self Protection

12/06/2026

Been thinking about why not many women sign up to learn self protection…🤔

EVERYBODY thinks it’s not their problem, so NOBODY does anything about it. Then SOMEBODY gets hurt, and EVERYBODY gets upset. Truth is, ANYBODY can learn how to protect themselves!🤷🏼‍♀️

You’re not TOO old
You’re not TOO weak
You’re not TOO inexperienced

You ARE however…
TOO precious💎
TOO loved❤️
TOO needed🙏🏻
TOO important🧐….to NOT learn self protection!

Just sayin 🤷🏼‍♀️

Sat chatting to a woman on a plane the other day and it came up in conversation what I do for a job…well, some people call it a job…I call it my passion and mission….anyway, back on topic!
She told me she would love to learn self protection, but needs to be fit enough first before she comes to class😳🤔
That’s like saying you need to wait till you’re educated enough before you start school🤷🏼‍♀️🤓

My reply….Don’t wait till you’re strong enough, fit enough, slim enough, hard enough, able enough.
YOU ARE ENOUGH…right here, right now 👊🏻💪🏻👌🏻

Just start with walking through the door of Amazonia School of Self Protection…where we Empower, Educate and Enable. ALL women ALL abilities. ALL the time.

Weekly classes in Saddleworth and Prestwich. Message me to find out more!

A few weeks ago Amazonia was asked to join the podcast ‘Practice Matters’ - a regular podcast sent out to the veterinary community.
Lately there’s been more concern raised about the safety of lone working female vets…Ranging from personal protection when attending late night call outs to remote farms or dealing with highly activated and aggressive pet owners in their treatment rooms.
Thank you to Practice Matters for asking Amazonia to be a guest on your podcast…🙏🏻🤓🐶🐱🩺

Amazonia SOSP spent the weekend at The Westwood Camp with Rick Faye, studying and learning the art of kali, BJJ, Thai boxing and even a little bit of Tai Chi to chill us all out before each training day.
It is and always has been Amazonias
mission to keep on learning in order to keep our students motivated and educated 🤓📚🥋🥊

…’Sometimes a Teacher, Always a Student’…

THIS is why I do what I do!👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

When one of your students has to leave class and gives you a card like this, it makes you realise that you’re on the right path…❤️‍🩹😌🙏🏻

Amazonia has been busy buzzing around the NEC for the last two days, working with Stamp Out Spiking to raise awareness for this trailblazing charity and its fundraising campaign - The One Pound Challenge - which encourages people and their employers to donate a single pound each to go towards education, support and frontline needs surrounding this issue.
With the high profile spiking case of Gisele Pelicot and more recently the heinous and abhorrent discovery of the ‘online r**e academy’, now more than ever we need more to be done.
And more is very definitely being done…Today Dawn Dines, CEO & Founder of the S.O.S charity is celebrating, because after 20 years of campaigning and fighting for spiking to become a criminal act…ITS FINALLY HAPPENED!
Today Royal Assent was granted in The House of Commons and the legislation was passed.
MASSIVE CONGRATULATIONS TO STAMP OUT SPIKING!!
🙏🏻👏🏻👌🏻🤩
