This companion book complements the self-defense techniques taught in Professor Kelly S. Worden's Personal Protection Program, a DVD for non-martial artists.
While the DVD focuses on self-defense skills that are easy for people with no martial arts experience to learn, practice, and use in a high-stress situation, the book seeks to explore the many ways to avoid an actual fight.
The book also explains why martial arts is really not self-defense, despite what dojos and martial arts schools across the world claim. It also explores the importance of trying to AVOID, DETER, and DE-ESCALATE a conflict.
If push comes to shove and there is no other way out of a fight, you have the techniques shown in the DVD. But if you want to avoid being forced to defend yourself, this book will show you how.
