The Odd Choice الخيار الغريب | Ola Alshaar | TEDxSibkyParkWomen

With her uncommon choice in martial arts, Ola surprised a diverse audience of Syrian communities with the number of benefits martial arts had brought into her life whether on the personal or social or physical and psychological level and above all the opportunity of international exposure and appreciation, she encouraged more women to think again about persisting in their own uncommon but suitable-for-them choices!

مع اختيار غير مألوف في فنون الدفاع عن النفس ، فاجأت علا جمهور من مختلف أطياف المجتمع السوري بعدد الفوائد التي جلبتها الفنون القتالية على حياتها سواء على المستوى الشخصي أو الاجتماعي أو الجسدي والنفسي وقبل كل شيء فرصة الظهور والتقدير الدولي ، وشجعت بذلك المزيد من النساء على إعادة التفكير بالاستمرار في خياراتهن غير المألوفة ولكن المناسبة لهن!
Ola graduated faculty of Economics at Damascus University, she pursued an art career after graduating from Adham Ismael institute for fine arts, Ola is a very passionate artist who shares many of her works on her own YouTube Channel, Moreover, she is quite active in sports and community work where coincidentally she was able to find and pursue an uncommon interest-for-a-lifetime choice, especially for Syrian and covered girls in our society, which is Martial Arts!, she started with Kickboxing during her second year in university, a choice made completely out of curiosity, interest to learn a self-defense tool during the crisis and build confidence, then moved to Maui Thai boxing after having it re-legislated in Syria in 2019, the game which is more known as Street Fighting and considered the fourth most dangerous game in the world! even though she didn't get much support aside from her father, she was able to achieve much recognition nationally and regionally in both sports. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
