I was really shocked hearing my mum speak openly about her experience with intimate partner abuse... all I know if that my love for my mum is beyond words. This video I ramble on a bit... I knew I was ready to speak and rise from domestic abuse, but I was so shocked at how brave and ready my mum was. This video is raw and might be triggering... but we're here to shine a light on the darkness that happens behind closed doors.
I'm so proud of you mum 💜

When someone puts their hands on you, everything can change in seconds.
The goal isn't to win the fight. It's to create space, protect yourself and get to safety. 💜

🥊 To the martial arts girls… this one is for you. 🥋❤️
As part of Underdog, it was an absolute honour to host, alongside the incredible Sienna, our All Girls Martial Arts Open Mat, bringing together striking, wrestling and jiu-jitsu under one roof.
A huge thank you to @underdog_evolution for creating the space for this to happen, and to every club, coach, woman and girl who came down and shared the mats with us.
There was something so special about seeing women and girls from different gyms, different disciplines and different backgrounds come together, not as separate clubs, but as one martial arts community.
We trained. We rolled. We wrestled. We struck. We laughed. We learnt from each other. And we built new friendships and connections across the mats.
No egos. Nothing to prove. Just movement, connection, learning, play and a whole lot of fun. ❤️
Thank you to everyone who made the day what it was.
Here’s to the martial arts girls. May we keep taking up space, supporting one another and never lose the joy of discovering just how powerful we are. 🥊🥋

What an awesome day of boxing!
Today we delivered boxing to 4 classes at Santa Maria Secondary College in Northcote, and it was such a pleasure teaching alongside the incredible @tenshidoma

A big thank you to @proactivityaus for bringing us in and giving us the opportunity to deliver these sessions.
What a high energy and very fun day! 🥊🔥
