4 out of 5 stars Great as a template for teaching self defense   December 30, 2002
Although the Karate influence on this book is hard to miss it is still an excellent template to how self defense should be taught. If you are an instructor you can use this book as a template to helping you design your lesson plans. If you don't like a given technique then insert one that you do like following the author's method and you will be surprised at the outcome. The method of instruction and reinforcement that the author utilizes will work for any introductory self-defense course. I've read this book 100+ times and I am still learning from it.


5 out of 5 stars Complete Self Defense Course Curriculum   January 26, 2001
This book is oriented to teachers of a women's self defense course. It contains class activities, drills, standards for sucess in each technique, descriptions for performing the techniques, and safety techniques. I find this book extremely helpful for any one teaching a self-defense course. I refer to this book frequently. I am a law enforcement self defense instructor and a 1st degree black belt in judo.


4 out of 5 stars Above average review text for self defense   May 15, 1999
I teach Kenpo Karate and have been active in Kenpo for over 26 yrs. The text by Joan Nelson is an excellent reference source for the lay public on self defense, but an invaluable tool for professional self defense instructors of most styles.
