About the Book

Over The Hill Self Defense will at first make you laugh. It is written in words that many thought were no longer in use, and also felt best kept that way! Then you become absorbed by his creative use of so many ancient thoughts and where he might have come up with them. Lastly you become aware of the techniques. The simple, yet effective techniques chosen from a wide spread knowledge of martial arts. It is then that you must choose to laugh or to kick some butt! Oh, fiddlesticks! Do both! You’ll live longer! This is really a must read for all ages.


About the Author

Howard Barber has been a long time student of martial arts techniques and a self defense instructor. He has also spent 35 years in Occupational Therapy working primarily with people of age and often includes Tai Chi as part of his interventions for optimum recovery and health. Karate, Tai Chi and Ninpo Tai Jutzu are included in Howard’s resume of martial arts experiences. A fascination with Poi staff and chain techniques have added a dimension and speed to his weapons approach beyond the usual martial arts instruction. As a minister Howard has remained keenly aware of two things: the need to turn the other cheek and get out of confrontations when able, and the need for people to feel a level of self protection in order to surpass the human experience and to then encounter the Divine.
