O knihe

The term ¿Self-defense" is very broad and it is quite difficult to trace out its origin. It may not be wrong to claim that self-defense has been with human kind right since the dawn of society. Even the earliest human beings had learned how to protect themselves from attacks from animals and human beings, from that point of departure, Self-defense evolved into more advanced and disciplined forms within the generic rubric of ¿martial arts¿ and with specific forms such as jiu-Jitsu, taekwondo, aikido, karate, kickboxing, wrestling, kung-fu, etc. In relation to this, Women's Self-defense training is often traced back to the second-wave feminism of the 1960s and 1970s. Self-defense training actually reveals how the traditional sexist ideas find their way into the functioning of the body itself. Women Self-defense is for enabling women to internalize a different kind of bodily knowledge or reprogramming regimen of body. Women Self-defense is a set of awareness, confidence-building, verbal confrontation skills, safety strategies, and physical techniques that enable girls and women to successfully escape, resist, and survive violent attacks.
