It should never be a woman's job to have to protect herself - but choosing to learn about self-defence can be incredibly liberating. This is a practical beginner's guide, in which women's martial arts expert and survivor Della O'Sullivan draws on her years of experience to give us the tools to protect our bodies and minds. A truly empowering illustrated handbook, it includes: easy-to-follow self-defence manoeuvres, how to spot red flags and protect yourself against alarming behaviour, and how to adopt the mindset of a survivor. It is the book you'll want to press into every woman's hands.
