The Smart Person's Guide to Self Defense
Challenging the Myths
We can take care of ourselves. Self defense isn't limited to those with the talent and fortitude for mastering the martial arts, nor is it the sole domain of certified "tough guys." Anyone can learn the basic skills of self protection.

This blog challenges the myths that leave far too many people scared and helpless and provides information to those interested in practical self defense.
