The Safe Woman was born from experience

In December 2024, I shared my story. It wasn’t easy. I had found myself in a frightening situation—one that left me feeling vulnerable, isolated, and unsure of what to do next. That moment changed everything.

I made a quiet promise then: No woman should ever feel that helpless again.

So I began to build. Armed with formal training in Self-Defence and Mental Health First Aid, I brought together everything I had learned from a life of walking boldly—whether travelling solo across continents, working in high-risk zones, or completing Hostile Environment Awareness Training.

But I didn’t do it alone. I’ve had the immense privilege of learning from those who have been at the sharpest edges of safety and security - dedicated police officers, military veterans, national and global security experts. They stood behind me, sharing their knowledge and believing in a future where women are prepared, not scared.

Most importantly, I listened to women like you. Your stories, your questions, your fierce wisdom and everyday fears. You helped shape The Safe Woman into what it is today:  A movement. A method. A sisterhood.

This isn’t just a training workshop. It’s a quiet revolution in confidence, clarity, and readiness.

It’s safety training for women, by women.

You don’t need to wait for fear to find you. You can stand ready now.

For every woman between the ages of 16 & 80.   

Unlike traditional self-defence classes that emphasise combat techniques, The Safe Woman offers personal risk assessment, personal safety advice, avoidance, de-escalation, and escape techniques designed specifically for women. 

These workshops are adaptable to women of all ages, body types, fitness levels, and abilities, including those with disabilities or mobility challenges. 

All training is designed to fit within the context of everyday life, whether at work or in social settings.

You can wear what ever you feel comfortable in!   Whether this is the clothes you wear to work, at home, out socialising or in the gym. 

Just be yourself!
