Featuring Garry Wooten

“Common Sense Self-Defense for Women” is a pioneering instructional video produced by New & Unique Videos in 1985. It features martial arts expert Garry Wooten. This practical and empowering program was created to teach women how to recognize danger, prevent attacks, and defend themselves effectively using easy-to-learn techniques.

Unlike complicated martial arts programs, this video focuses on realistic, common-sense strategies that women can apply in everyday situations—whether walking to their car, jogging, or facing a potential assault.

Key Topics Include:

  • Situational awareness and personal safety tips
  • Simple yet effective defensive moves
  • How to break free from holds and grabs
  • Using everyday objects as improvised weapons
  • Developing confidence and assertiveness

Presented in a straightforward, approachable style, Garry Wooten demonstrates techniques that any woman can learn and use, regardless of size, age, or strength.
