Zoë Swift is a White Belt training out of Parity Martial Arts and so far has lost every match to submission. She shows up with resilience and tenacity to keep going on her competitive journey despite the initial setbacks. Zoë really is a role model for any of us in the early part of our BJJ careers. She also shares challenges in decision making for her study and work life.

Training has given Zoë balance for her life now she has embarked on an HR Apprenticeship. She is inspired by her partner, his challenges and growth in MMA and BJJ. Supporting other women is really important, whether they are friends that haven't yet started training or fellow training partners. Shows like ENYO really highlight the female BJJ talent in the UK, their next event is Saturday 4th April 2026.
