Starting with "The -3- Goals of Self-Defense," you will learn that, when confronted with an aggressive attacker, your response can be firm and gentle but definitely in control. I have been teaching this system nationally for over fifteen years. It is easy to learn, easy to remember, and easy to apply, and with the proper application, it will provide you the tools to deal with an attacker and to gain time to escape. Learning how to "Be a Hot Stove !" is the next topic you will be introduced to. There is a commonly held belief that, in order to win over an attacker, you must punch their lights out. Not true because there is another and better way to win. This commentary explains how. The next two commentaries introduce the existence, effectiveness, and power the "Pressure Point Defense." Knowledge and understanding of this topic can lead to an unfair advantage against any attacker. The introduction of "The Highest Goal of Self-Defense," also known as "Can Killing Be Justified ?," commentary reveals the high moral ground of ethical self-defense. It identifies and explains the four levels and how they are applied in confrontational examples. We complete the commentaries with the "Commonly Held Self-Defense Myths," also known as "Lies My Fathers Told Me." The myths, and there are five, are presented with viable alternatives when experiencing confrontations with others. It is my profound belief that you will find these commentaries educational, thought-provoking, and valuable in your journey of self discovery. In the words of the Orient - "To say thanks would cheapen the gift."
