The
combination of an increasing crime rate and staggering rape statistics
(over one million women and children are raped in South Africa every
year) has clearly defined the need for a book which not only empowers
and encourages women to acknowledge their capabilities, but shows
them how to defend themselves. The South African Woman's Guide to
Self-Defence is such a book, teaching you how to identify opportunities
and implement easy, yet effective self-defence techniques.
Aimed at every woman in South Africa, regardless of fitness level,
age or physical appearance, the authoritative text, step-by-step
instructions and 250 colour photographs clearly demonstrate the
various techniques and make learning self-defence easy.
• Please note that the 2nd Edition of the book is available
only from Self Defence Workshops CC
