If you are looking at self-defence for the first time or are an experienced martial artist that wants to add to your knowledge, then ‘Principles of Self Defence’ is the book you need. Have you ever been in a fight? have you ever had to really hit somebody? The chances are, for many of us that live in peaceful law-abiding countries, that the answer would be no, never. Despite this the fear of assault is part of everyday life and we all ask ourselves what if? Most self-defence books available assume a level of physical strength and experience in conflict such as serving in the police, military or working security. What if you have never been in a fight, are not physical fit or are being mentally and physically abused? Alessandro has used his 27 years of martial arts experience to strip away any reliance on physical strength or combat experience to create simple but very effective techniques.

From the 1950s to the 1990s, the takeoff of karate enthusiasm was astounding. In 1954, few Japanese knew of karate, and those that did considered it a foreign (Okinawan) import. Because the Allied Occupational authorities after World War II considered it to be some kind of Chinese exercise, it was not outlawed like the other purely Japanese fighting arts. Some claim it was allowed because American GIs wanted to learn karate to improve their own fighting skills. This enabled karate to start on its remarkable journey.
