Self-defense for the Individual offers a practical path to civilian self-protection.
This book presents a lean, action-focused system of in-fighting that emphasizes quick, effective methods for real life encounters. Written to help readers handle threats in a direct and non-sporting way, it frames self-defense as a series of usable moves rather than sports rules or parade ground technique.
From emphasis on leverage and behind-the-back positioning to straightforward ground and impact techniques, the approach aims to render an attacker ineffective in the least time. It includes simple instructions and examples drawn from real-world training and military testing, with an eye toward accessibility for beginners and practicality for daily life. The material stresses responsible use and urges readers to reserve these skills for defense when absolutely necessary.
