Self Defense For Women

The statistics on violence against women are staggering – even overwhelming. Often, women are thought of as the weaker sex, unable to defend themselves effectively against a strong male attacker. It’s this kind of thinking that hurt women.

Self-defense isn’t karate or judo. It isn’t learning how to shoot a gun or handle a Taser. It involves knowing how to avoid situations that put you at risk then coupling them with evasive techniques that can help keep you safe and sound.

There is an ongoing debate regarding the use of weapons by women when defending themselves. We’ll look at that debate and give you some facts to help you decide if carrying a weapon is the right route for you.

You owe it to yourself to stay safe. Don’t let the criminals win – prove to them that women can be strong too. Learn self-defense and be confident that when the time comes, you’ll be able to defend yourself. There’s no time like the present!
