About the Book

This book is your first big step in learning some self-defense. The techniques are designed strictly for beginners and preparation and lessons are based on the asumption that you have no prior self-defense training. Each technique will be broken down step-by-step for you to learn easily. This book will serve at least three essential purposes for the reader: to alert and educate individuals on the potential dangers that are in our neighborhoods today, to realize the importance of self-defense, and to get you started on learning the self-defense martial art of Ken-Ryu Kenpo.
