Fight Like a Girl

An empowering self-defence guide for all women

About this book

'Fighting like a girl says I can be powerful in ways that are natural to me; I have access to power too – it may not look the same as your power, but it's there and I can claim it.'

It should never be a woman's job to have to protect herself – but choosing to learn about self-defence can be incredibly liberating. Fight Like a Girl is a practical beginner's guide, in which women's martial arts expert and survivor Della O'Sullivan draws on her years of experience to give us the tools to protect our bodies and minds. A truly empowering illustrated handbook, it includes:

  • easy-to-follow self-defence manoeuvres
  • how to spot red flags and protect yourself against alarming behaviour
  • how to adopt the mindset of a survivor

It is the book you'll want to press into every woman's hands.
