Stuart Haskin's The Gift of Freedom: A Stronger, Safer You is built around two key
concepts -- being strong and being safe:
- Being STRONG means being prepared; doing everything in your power to
get ready for life’s safety challenges so that when and if they happen, you
are ready.
- Being SAFE means being willing to put all of your carefully prepared
plans into action. It means listening to your instincts and doing the right
things at the right time.

The Gift of Freedom is also about recovering or expanding your freedom.
Let’s face it; this world is not a safe place. Everywhere we look we see examples
of bad things happening to good people. But there are strategies you can use to
protect yourself. In this book you will find the keys to enhancing your precious
freedom.
After graduating from college, Stuart Haskin decided to open a martial arts
school. It wasn't long before he started to hear one heartbreaking story after
another from people who had experienced close brushes with violence. One day
he decided that he was going to do something about this, so he developed a
personal safety course, which would teach people how to protect themselves
from bad things happening to them or recover from the aftermath of violent
assaults.
That's when The Gift of Freedom was born. Now you can learn and apply the same
lessons that internationally recognized martial arts expert Stuart Haskin has
taught to thousands of students over the past 25 years. Lessons that will make
your world a safer place.
No matter where you live or what you do, there is something in this book for
you.
