The combination of an increasing crime rate and staggering rape and gender-based violence statistics in South Africa has clearly defined the need for a book that not only empowers and encourages women to acknowledge their capabilities, but shows them how to defend themselves. The South African Womans Guide to Self-Defence is such a book.In this book you will learn how to:identify potentially dangerous situations and how you can avoid them;identify patterns/styles of attack and understand the best defence response for each pattern;identify opportunities to defend yourself should you be compromised;identify and use vulnerable body target areas onto which to apply your techniques;identify and change your own limiting beliefs and mental programming concerning your rights and capabilities; implement easy, yet highly effective self-defence techniques.Aimed at every woman, regardless of fitness level, age or physical ability, the authoritative text, step-by-step instructions and 250 full-colour photographs clearly demonstrate the various techniques and make learning self-defence easy.
