About Self Defense For Busy People
Steve Brass divides the book in three parts and covers the three important aspects of your life. Protecting your home, protecting yourself in different situations that arise in your daily lives, and how to fight back just enough to get out of the situation.
You might love to watch action movies and the 8os Kung-Fu dramas with high kicks and hole burning punches, but that is not how it works in real world.
And although the author agrees that knowing basic self defense moves never hurts, dealing punches is not the way or the solution. The author rightfully paints the real-world situation and how it very different from the classes you attend – even if you do get into occasional sparring.
