The focus of my grappling training has been primarily competition oriented, but I am fully aware that these same ground fighting techniques are also useful in real-life self-defense scenarios. As a smaller woman, I’ve learned how to “take the path of least resistance” and use speed, agility and finesse to hold my own. That being said, there are important factors to defending one’s self on the street that aren’t present in the competitive arena. This naturally raises questions like: What if my attacker tried to kick me in head? What if my attacker pulled a knife? What if there was more than one attacker? What if my attacker is so much bigger and stronger than me that finesse isn’t enough?

Lori O’Connell answers these questions and many more in this book, addressing issues that are not always regularly discussed in submission grappling schools. It provides a complete look at all the major positions and defensive situations, with detailed, easy-to-follow instruction that walks you through every move step-by-step, making it an ideal choice for learning practical, effective techniques for real-life self-protection.
