SELF-DEFENCE FOR WOMEN - Its better to have and not need than need and not have. You dont have to know everything, you just need to remember something. Knowing one move is one move more than you had and maybe, the right thing you need at the right time you need it. Is it safe to know nothing? "Knowledge is Power".
For example; When I was training in submission fighting at a well known gym in Manchester UK, I could happily hold my own with the men, even guys bigger than me. But there was one woman who, despite giving away strengh and size to me, could beat me at will. In truth I never stood a chance. Simply because she had better technique and a higher skill level. Even though I lost I always smiled, because I knew by watching her that weaker framed people (such as myself), could gain an advantage, simply by knowing more than your opposition. No matter how we dress it up, an advantage is an advantage, and an awareness and understanding could be your savior.
I'm not suggesting this book will transform you into a fighter, but it can only improve your confidence and make some of the things that happen around you seem a little bit clearer.

By: yanary | 06/01/2010A day after failing to make weight for his fight against Matt Hughes, Thiago Alves dominated the former UFC welterweight champion en route to a 2nd round TKO victory.

Are Eastern Martial Arts Dojos a Good Fit For Americans?
By: Dr. Gary S. Goodman | 05/01/2010America is not homogeneous. We have more than 100 nationalities, so we should use caution in stereotyping. Still, there are overall proclivities and inclinations. And one of them is that there is more of a "Me, first" attitude here, than a "We, first." Do Eastern dojos suffer as a result?

The Effect of the Lensmen on Martial Arts

And all those old legends, a lot of them are good for not much more than washing the hog, if you feel like washing the hog.

SELF DEFENSE- Points Of Interest
By: Jester | 06/07/2009 | Martial ArtsLearning impressive techniques is one thing, but actually performing them in the middle of a threatening situation is another.

The Lines Of Balance
By: Jester | 21/06/2009 | Martial ArtsThe Lines of Balance Not a Self-Defence technique as such, more of a simple observation. When a lot of Martial Arts and Self-Defence coaches teach this, they usually refer to your ‘centre of gravity’. I personally prefer to break it down by using the ‘Lines of Balance’.
