Hasina started learning MMA after being bullied at school about the colour of her skin and found it was a powerful way to develop more confidence. She now trains with Zahra. They discuss the benefits of training in an all-female environment, describing the gym as "a sisterhood where all women of faith can come together", and how the demanding nature of the sport has changed the way they think about physical contact.
