A Special Note to our Female Readers

A special note to our female readers

This book is perhaps one of the most relevant and applicable books for women’s self-defense on the market. As co-author and editor, I feel that the materials and techniques presented here are feasible and even cater to the needs of women or people of smaller stature and build. We endeavored to offer situations with responses that were based more on the principles of physics and strategy than on the use of physical strength in overcoming an attacker. Also, all of the techniques, whether defensive or offensive, will work equally well for women as they will for men. Simply put, if a technique does not work for me as a small-framed, 5’ woman, against my father, a 5’6”, 185 pound man, then the technique is not worth practicing.





The goal of this book is to teach you how to train smart. In addition, you will find valuable information on awareness, the effects of clothing in a dangerous situation, finger reaps, and adaptive weapons, all of which are sections that women in particular should find helpful and eye-opening. Whether you are a female martial artist or just someone who would like to know more about how to protect yourself in our increasingly violent world, it is my belief that this book will prove useful and informative.
