Practical Karate - For Women Book 5 Description

FIRST let it be made clear that this series makes no ridiculous claims. It does not assure you that you can become a karate expert in a matter of weeks, nor does it try to convince you that you can learn to break boards in a few easy lessons. This is the fifth book in the Practical Karate series. Like its predecessors, it is a categorized collection of self defense situations and recommended karate responses. All methods described are workable responses based on meeting an unarmed, single male assailant. It might be of additional interest to women students of karate to study the fundamentals found in Books 1-4, even though these are basically books for male students. Mastery of the responses in this text will not make the reader invincible in personal encounters, but it will certainly better prepare her should defense of her life or that of others become necessary. But only practice will bring results.
