LBCI aired a report on International Women’s Day featuring Siham Al Kassir, a Lebanese woman who works as a professional bodyguard and personal trainer. Al Kassir won the title of “Strongest Woman in the Arab World” in 2024 and owns her own gym, SeeSaw. Notably, Al Kassir also serves as a bodyguard for one of the Lebanese MPs, though her interview did not specify who (it could possibly be Paula Yacoubian).
Siham has built an all-female security team and aspires to make it the best in the Arab world. It’s an ambitious goal, but I admire her confidence and wish her the best in her endeavors!
You can watch the LBCI report on Siham, although I’m not sure why they chose the James Bond theme for a professional bodyguard, and the stunts felt a bit over the top.
