Laura Jones

Instructor

Laura is one of only a handful of female Arakan instructors. Based in Brisbane city, she is dedicated to empowering women, ensuring they feel confident, safe, and powerful through their training.

Since 2014, Laura has immersed herself in the world of Arakan, and her personal journey through this martial art has been transformative. Starting as a young and timid 20-year-old, she has grown into a strong and empowered woman who now aims to guide other women on their path to confidence and self-discovery.

Laura's love for physicality extends beyond Arakan. She has actively participated in various sports and is a regular at the gym. Her passion for people is evident in her belief in the tribe mentality that Arakan fosters. She understands that the bonds formed within a training community can have a profound impact on personal growth and development.

Recognizing the holistic nature of personal well-being, Laura firmly believes that training extends beyond physical fitness. She emphasizes the powerful connection between mental well-being and physical health. Laura’s mission is to create a safe and supportive environment for women to challenge themselves and learn street effective self-defence skills.
