Defend Yourself (No Experience Necessary) is a breakthrough book in the self-defense genre. Unlike many systems that are too complicated for the average person, author Sean Ramey has assembled a series of seven steps which. if taken to heart. will have readers walking through life more confidently. The aim of Defend Yourself (No Experience Necessary) is to provide readers with a fundamental understanding of what to do when they are caught in a life-threatening situation. One does not need to be a super-athlete to put these steps into practice, as Ramey has geared his message for the average person who has neither the means. nor the desire, to step into a martial arts studio. Defend Yourself (No Experience Necessary) is for college students. business profes.sionals and stay-at-home parents alike. As Ramey writes, «Everyone -regardless of age, gender, size or athletic ability -should be able to walk safely through the world knowing they are armed with the tools to survive and thrive.»

Отрывок из книги
To the thousands of people to whom I’ve taught or with whom I’ve practiced martial arts. I have learned and become a better martial artist because of you. This book is also dedicated to you, the reader, for not forgetting the essential life skill of self-protection. Finally, I dedicate this book to our troops who have made the ultimate sacrifice in protecting our freedom. I am proud that a portion of the proceeds from sales of this book will go toward the education and financial assistance of your children.
I would like to give special thanks to all the students and black belts at Kentucky Tae Kwon Do & Fitness Academy. Thank you for allowing me to be your teacher and share with you the arts that have had such an impact on my life. Witnessing your growth has been immensely rewarding and gives me constant gratification.
