I took a while to work my way through this not because it was a chore but because it is very easy to read in chunks. It was a light and enjoyable read.
Some great quotes and a few self realizing moments had me finishing this book even when I became glossy eyed through much of it. This is a book that a present martial arts student might appreciate more than I did. I studied Aikido for 8 years and understood her stance, practice techniques and such but reading about them for hundreds of pages was mind numbing for me. I could have gotten much more from the story with it trimmed down to 50 pages.

Schorn tells her story with wit, a wry humor, excellent writing and a fearless, clear voice. There is a lot of Karate in this book, but there is a lot more as well. Thoughts about risk-taking, thoughts about women and safety and how our culture reacts to both: this is a book with a lot to say, and I hope you take the time to hear it. I promise, it's really funny and trachea-crushing gets mentioned more than once. What more can you ask for?… (mehr)
