GETTING SMART ABOUT DEFENSE

Dam Well Better with The Iron Beaver - A podcast by Liz Beaver

Categories:

Miyo Strong is a world champion brown belt out of Unified Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Utah. She holds multiple medals across multiple belts and brackets, plus has had some fantastic wins in submission only superfights. Miyo is a BJJ athlete, a Gym Jones certified instructor and heads the Smart Defense Program at the Elizabeth Smart Foundation. Her goal is to give women the education and tools to empower themselves in a world where rape culture and sexual assault statistics go hand in hand. I was lucky to catch her in between training and driving her daughters to football practice. We have a great chat about self defense, what the Smart Defense program is all about, sexuality, setting boundaries. and the insidious ways our culture devalues women and becomes a permissive environment for sexual abuse and assault.
