Self-defense & Assault Prevention for Girls & Women is a complete book of instruction in basic, practical self-defense which can be used as a text in physical education classes, in women's studies, assertion training groups, for young adult counseling and guidance, and as a home study course.

The effective, easy-to-learn defense actions are clearly explained and fully illustrated, step-by-step. Self-defense is not viewed as preparatin to become a skilled fighter, but as instruction to avoid becoming the victim of assault. The physical defenses are a back-up for prudent behavior to minimize the posibliity of assault and assertive responses to the threat of assault. Although they derive from ancient jujitsu techniques, the defense actions have been adapted to the needs and capabilities of women living in the modern world.

Self-defense, as presented by Bruce Tegner and Alice McGrath, is an aspect of general competence and self-reliance and is appropriate for health and safety education.

Bruce Tegner is a world-renowned authority, teacher and writer in the field of the martial arts. His many books on specialities of weaponless fighting skills for sport, recreation and fitness, and self-defense constitute a virtual library. They are used by schools, clubs, individuals, recreation centers and law enforcement training academies throughout the world. Bruce Tegner books have been published in French, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch and German editions; they have been praised by professionals in physical education and library journals.

Alice McGrath has been teaching and researching self-defense for women and children snce 1957. She was trained by and taught with Bruce Tegner at his school in Hollywood, California. Together, they developed a special course of self-defense for girls and women which Miss McGrath introduced at the California Physical Education Workshop in 1967; this was the first practical self-defense course to be widely adopted in physical education classes.

Bruce Tegner & Alice McGrath have given scores of workshops, lecture/demonstrations and in-service training programs for physical education teachers. An educational film is based on their course for girls and women. Both hold California Community College teaching credentials.

Here are all the instructions-everything you need to learn basic self-defense. The simple techniques are fully illustarted and explained, step-by-step, in easy-to-follow terms. Any girl can learn to defend herself by this method because the techniques can be used by smaller individuals against a larger assailant; they can be learned without danger or injury and without special equipment; and they are effective but not vicious or violent. For professionals, physical education and YWCA courses, group leaders and home study.

Bruce Tegner is America's outstanding authority in the unarmed arts for sport and self-defense.

Alice McGrath has been teaching self-defense for girls since 1957 and has instructed physical education teachers in this method. She has given numerous lecture-demonstrations to high schools and colleges.

Aikido, like all other maartial arts, Asian and European, derives from fighting skills originally developed and used for hand-to-hand combat. It has evolved into one of the most beautiful of the formal, stylized representations of the ancient jitsu, now practiced primarily for recreation, fitness, and self-expression through movement.

Three styles of aikido are presented-an early style, a classical style, and a modern version using characteristic aikido actions and gestures.

Bokata solo routines are represented by three examples of kata performed with the aikdo long staff.

This is one of the most complete collection of jujitsu katas ever presented in one volume. From among the hundreds of styles of jujitsu practiced in Japan during the past century, Bruce Tegner has selected and adapted routines which are appropriate for developing and maintaining physical fitness, flexibility and agility. The katas are excellent for self-improvements and self-expression through body awareness and body movement.

Martial arts enthusiasts, physical education teachers and librarians will find valuable instructional and reference material in this book.

Bruce Tegner is a specialist in sport and self-defense forms of the martial arts. He is regarded as one of the world's outstanding authorities and innovators in the subject field. He was born in Chicago, Ilinois in 1929. Both his parents were professional teachers of judo and jujitsu, and they began his formal instruction when he was two years old! In a field where most individuals study only one specialty, Bruce Tegner's background is unusual. His education covered many aspects of weaponless fighting as well as sword and stick techniques. At the age of twenty-one, after he had become California state judo champion, he gave up competition to devote himself completely to research, writing and teacher-training.

In the U.S. armed forces, Mr. Tegner trained instructors to teach unarmed combat, he taught miltary police tactics and he coached sport judo teams. He has trained actors and devised fight scenes for films and television. From 1952 to 1967 he operated his own school in Hollywood, California where he taught men, women and children, exceptionally gifted students and blind and disabled persons. He has devised many special courses, among them self-defense courses taught in physical education classes.

Bruce Tegner has many books in print in his subject field; they range from basic, practical self-defense to exotic forms of fighting for experts and enthusiasts. They are used in private and public schools in recreation centers, by law enforcement agencies and by individuals throughout the world. Editions of Tegner titles have been published in French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, and Dutch.

Self-defense nerve centers & pressure points is a practical guide to the most effective weaponless self-defense using the least possible force and selecting the lowest-risk-of-injury body targets. Addressing himself to the individual who has basic or moderate skill, Mr. Tegner explains how and why vulnerable body areas can be used for street defense. He discusses the importance of understanding the possible and probable effects of hitting at various body areas. He introduces modern knowledge and a modern vocabulary to a subject which has been obscured by myth and legend. He evaluates the so-called 'deadly' blows and the 'secrets' of the fighting arts in terms of acceptable scientific evidence and the reality of human anatomy. He corrects misconceptions about where and how to strike blows for practical self-defense as opposed to point targets used in stylized martial arts and contest matches. Students of any style of any of the martial arts specialties and teachers of self-defense and sport skills will find much valuable source material in this book.

Bruce Tegner has become familiar to millions of enthusiasts in the fields of self-defense, karate, jujitsu and judo as an outstanding authority, teacher, writer and innovator. His brilliant, original contributions and ideas have been widely adopted and have had considerable influence among teachers and practitionars of the martial arts. Mr. Tegner has literally spent his entire life in this field. Both his parents were professional teachers of judo and jujujitsu and they begen to instruct him when he was two years old! At seventen he was the youngest second-degree judo black belt (nidan) on record in the United States. After becoming California State judo champion at the age of twenty-one, he gave up competition to devote full time to teaching researching and writing. His many books constitute a virtual library and are used by public and private school teachers, clubs, law enforcement agencies and individuals all over the world.

Bruce Tegner is the most famous name in America in the field of Judo-Karate-Aikido-Jiu Jitsu and the allied forms of the unarmed fighting Arts. As teacher-author of more than a dozen splendid books, he has done more than anyone to popularize, explain and modernize the ancient arts so that they are practical for present day use. The Bruce Tegner method of teaching is serving as a model for many instructors, groups and individuals in this country. Mr. Tegner's formal training in Judo-Jiu Jitsu was started at the age of two! Both his parents were professional Judo instructors. He has spent a lifetime in study, research and teaching in this field. At his own school in Hollywood he teacher classes, supervises all instruction, and continues to give private lessons in spite of a heavy writing schedule. Students come from every part of the U.S. to take personal instruction from Bruce Tegner. Here is a complete guide to judo and karate sports ranks (competiton) and the formal degrees (non-competitive) of judo, karate and jukado (jiu-jjitsu self-defense). Competition rules and form requirements are those in common use by leading associations throughout the world. Instructor degrees are described for professional and amateur teachers. This book gives guidance to those who wish to instruct, coach, or start a club. For those who do not belong to an association (most Americans and Europeans do not) this book will define goals and outline proper procedures for attaining them. Rot those who do belong to an association, this book will braden their outlook and introduce them to teh variations in style and requirements of the many other fine systems. The growing numbers of English-speaking enthusiasts have been bewildered by lack of an authority to guide them or equally bewildered by the fact that there seem to be too many 'authorities' without a common guiding principle. This book is a reference and a help-not a dogma. Contents Requirements: How to apply them to your style Must you affiliate?

I bought this book in 1977 and cannot find a copy of its cover. The techniques shown in this book are still valid today. It is a very good book for beginners. Many of the new books just show the same techniques as are shown here. All techniques have a series of photos, so they are easy to follow. And the all work. I have taught and used them.

This is a good book for introducing an individual to karate. It is filled with good advice and 1000 photos. The book is broken up into two main sections: Self-defense and sport karate. I found the self-defense section to be very useful. In his so called sport karate section he shows Kata and two man routines per belt level. Tegner looks stiff in these photos. I do not recognize the style.
