Tae Kwon Do for Women J. Lawler

Tae Kwon Do for Women focuses on helping women emphasize their strengths and improve their weaknesses in martial arts practice. Some of the challenges that women in the martial arts face are not relevant to men, and many of the inherent skills that women have (speed, agility) are often overlooked in traditional how-to books. Tae Kwon Do for Women is intended to correct that problem. Beginner, intermediate and advanced practitioners will all find helpful information. The book covers principles, techniques and drills for the Tae Kwon Do practitioner, written with women specifically in mind. The book includes more than 400 photographs and a complete resource directory.
