The Dirty Dozen

Self-defense isn’t pretty, it’s nasty. If you want to be able to defend yourself by hand, when necessary, you have to be prepared to use hardcore techniques that will get the job done.

U.S. Army Special Forces veteran Larry Jordan was given a unique assignment by his commanders: come up with a truly down-and-dirty hand-to-hand fighting system for his fellow Green Berets and U.S. Army Rangers. The goal of this system was to give soldiers a handful of hard-core techniques that could be easily learned, easily mastered and effectively applied in any close-combat situation. Jordan devised a set of 12 techniques that were surprisingly simple, shockingly fast and brutally effective. He has now adapted this military system for civilian self-defense. He calls it “The Dirty Dozen.” The 12 self-defense lessons in this book are specifically designed to provide the average citizen with a series of easily learned techniques that will enable him or her to prevail in any violent situation. Besides the ever-present threat of violent crime, the recent terrorist attacks on 9/11 show that people can no longer rely on “somebody else” to protect them. Preparing to resist and defeat evildoers is everyone’s responsibility now. That’s where The Dirty Dozen comes in.

You can use Amazon to purchase Jordan’s book, Dirty Dozen: 12 Nasty Fighting Techniques For Any Self-Defense Situation.
