Women's Safety
A local author's latest release is all about helping women learn more about self-defense and staying safe.
WOMEN INTERESTED IN reading about self-defense and practical safety tips are in luck, thanks to
local author Logan Doughty and
his upcoming release, "Fearless: A
Woman's Guide to Personal SelfProtection."
Doughty has been involved in
the martial arts since 1984, and
is an instructor-level practitioner
of Shaolin Kung-Fu and Filipino
Arnis. He is a certified instructor in threat mitigation and OC
weapons (pepper spray) through
SABRE's® Public Safety Academy.
Doughty's experience applying
martial arts and defensive tactics in
real-life situations helped him develop repeatable principles that can
be applied in daily life, and help
take the guesswork out of how to
respond in uncomfortable and po-

tentially dangerous situations.
"Fearless" is a written version
of his self-protection class, containing theories, concepts and
principles regarding personal
safety. The book contains practical advice in dealing with disruptive and potentially dangerous
behavior, along with original illustrations for readers to understand and practice the simple yet
effective physical actions needed
to protect themselves. Access to
online demonstration videos is
also available with book purchase.
One of the main objectives
throughout "Fearless" is to remember to change the situation,
or escape, rather than stay and fight
and risk injury or worse. Doughty
hopes women who read his book
will be able to live a more active,
energetic life than ever before. The
information lays the foundation
to recognize danger in your surroundings and react in a safe, positive way.
"My mission is to help reduce
the fear of assault by teaching
physical, mental and environmental preparation techniques,"
Doughty says. "A woman...can
take charge of her surroundings simply by looking at fearful situations as a problem to be
solved...rather than a terrifying
event that, once it is in motion,
is completely out of her control."
Readers will learn principles that
can be applied to daily life, such
as developing awareness, recognizing threatening behavior, physical
preparedness and environmental
preparation. Doughty stresses the
practice of keeping people from
encroaching on one's physical or
emotional comfort zones.
"Fearless: A Woman's Guide to
Personal Self Protection" will release in late March and be available across multiple platforms.
