Description
Originally published during World War II, "Hands Off!" provides practical self-defence techniques for women, tailored to address their physical limitations. The book explains twenty measures to help women deal with potentially threatening situations, including wrist holds, strangulation prevention, and self-liberation methods.
These methods, developed by Major W E Fairbairn, were originally designed to enhance women's efficiency in the war effort. Despite being written over seventy years ago, the techniques remain relevant and effective today, making this book a valuable resource for anyone seeking to improve their personal safety and self-defence skills.
