Going back a century again to the time of the Suffragettes, arise Bartitisu and Elizabeth Margaret. Garrud who established her own dojo (school) in London and trained members of the militant Suffragette movement, including the clandestine "Bodyguard" unit of the Women's Social and Political Union in Bartitsu and the defensive use of Indian clubs.
The WSPU responded by establishing a thirty-member, all-woman protection unit referred to as "the Bodyguard", the "Jiujitsuffragettes" and the "Amazons", to protect fugitive suffragettes from re-arrest. Edith Garrud became the very first trainer of the Bodyguard and taught them jujutsu and the use of Indian clubs as defensive weapons. Their lessons took place in a succession of secret locations to avoid the attention of the police. The Bodyguard fought a number of well-publicised hand-to-hand combats with police officers who were attempting to arrest their leaders.
On several occasions they were also able to stage successful escapes and rescues, making use of tactics such as disguise and the use of decoys to confuse the police
