Publisher's Synopsis
Based on an eight-part Channel Four TV series, this book has become a classic and definitive guide to self-defence for women all over the world. A black belt in judo, Khaleghl Quinn has taught her pioneering self-defence methods for over 20 years. She knows that it is not enough to learn to defend ourselves physically, we must learn to change our attitudes and firmly reject the traditional passive role of the "victim". She encourages us to grow in confidence, place more trust in intuition and to use our body language to reflect this more positive approach.;This is both a fully illustrated practical manual of self-defence techniques and a guide to harnessing and conquering fear. It teaches us how to avoid physical conflict as well as how to deal with it and leads to a deeper understanding of how to recognize and resist oppression in all its forms.
