Definitive text on self defense for women

This book serves as a practical, easy to understand text on self protection for women. Valuable information is shared which allows even women with little martial art experience to defend themselves effectively. Escapes from stand up attacks and ground attacks are explained and illustrated clearly, as well as preventive measures for out-witting potential attackers. The origins of the female ninja explained in this text adds further to the richness of this work, adding an element of history that will intrigue the reader. Well done, Ashida Kim!

Nice Work Again, Ashida!

A nicely written book. While "Ninjitsu for Women" could work well as a stand-alone, it is quite helpful if you have read Ashida's other book "Secrets of the Ninja". Those two books, in tandem, create the ultimate course for the beginner Kunoichi.Perhaps the best part of the book, was the history of the Kunoichi. It was interesting to learn how women became ninjas, and what their seperate titles were. I only wish that section was longer!
