Book excerpt: Some "experts" say that you should be submissive when attacked at home or by a stranger. You will not find that advice here, although you might use it as a ruse before you claw your assailant's eyes and annihilate his groin. Your ultimate goal is to get away but you don't achieve that by being meek and docile. You get away by drawing on that hardwired survival instinct to attack him like an enraged lioness protecting its babies. In this book, martial arts experts Loren W. Christensen and Lisa Place teach you to use your hands, forearms, elbows, teeth, knees and feet to survive the type of attack that unsuspecting women become the victims of every day. And you will learn that you're surrounded by a limitless cache of weapons that you can use to your advantage against a larger assailant. If you are ready to learn to fight back, Loren and Lisa know exactly what you need to survive an attack in your home or on the street.

Download or read book Staying in the Moment! written by Michael E. Andrus and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-01-05 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world is changing every day. It's not the relaxed, safe place we once knew. These days, it is wise to understand your surroundings, have better awareness and be able to defend yourself if needed. Those who say, "It always happens to someone else, never me!" may regret those words if and when a tragedy strikes. Having the confidence to face our new culture is important for a happy and healthy life.The book includes: • Effective self-defense techniques explained in simple terms • Easy to follow pictures to help you practice at home • Practical tips that can keep you out of trouble • Identification of vital targets and pressure points to maximize effectiveness.Master Mike Andrus has learned and developed effective techniques from many years of training in multiple styles of martial arts. For this book he has selected the most effective practical self-defense techniques for women to use against an attacker who may be bigger and stronger.His book, seminars and workshops teach self-defense for individuals and their families. The training includes practical techniques designed to properly defend against attackers in a home or car invasion and other scenarios related to real-world violence. His street-proven self-defense techniques also include awareness drills and tips to keep you out of trouble.The concept of "staying in the moment" came about from his research of how women generally respond to danger events and why. By understanding the reactions, Mr. Mike was able to design his program to educate women and help them change the way they respond to external encounters. The result is that by using his principles, women are more confident and more aware of their surroundings and can respond properly by "staying in the moment" to resolve the conflict. The training involves some meditation, awareness drills, education, self-defense and "the element of surprise" techniques, as well as discussion about applying what you learn. Being able to apply what you learn is KEY! The results have been amazing. We are finding that these principles and techniques can be used successfully in every area of life. The result could be the difference between life and death! What is interesting is that “staying in the moment” is not always about conflict resolution.By doing things with intent you can change the moment, the rest of your day, or the rest of your life!

Book excerpt: “Brave and ballsy . . . the internal chaos that prompts Sekules’ rage and desire to retaliate is a more original, fascinating place to visit than any gym.” —Salon.com The Boxer’s Heart is a brilliantly candid memoir of the world of women’s boxing, now updated and with a new afterword. Written in raw and vivid style, it tells the story of how a young everywoman moves to New York City to write and, through struggles and disappointments in her personal life, rises through the ranks at the famed Gleason’s Gym to box professionally. Sekules’s account unfolds with the pace and depth of a great novel, crammed with larger-than-life characters and piercing observations. Any woman who has grappled with anger and trust in her relationships, been nagged by insecurity at the gym, or wondered what it feels like to throw a punch will identify with this witty and honest account of “ the sweet science of bruising.” “It’s a knockout, folks . . . The Boxer’s Heart is a winner, on all cards.” —Newsweek “What is most captivating about Sekules’ love letter to boxing is how she reconciles the feminine proclivity for tenderness and nurturing with their simultaneous ability to knock one another out, to unleash fury in a controlled and respectful way.” —Oprah.com “Sekules . . . is appealingly self-aware . . . [and] gives us a sense of women’s boxing as a thriving movement.” —The New York Times Book Review “This is a story of self-discovery, about finding out what you love, and then doing it—with passion, with a boxer’s heart.” —Kirkus Reviews
