Welcome
Welcome to the home page of the critically acclaimed “How To Be Your Own Bodyguard” by Nick Hughes. It’s the book containing hundreds of self-defense tips for men and women from a lifetime of protecting clients in hostile environments. Here you’re going to be able to find out about both the Kindle and the print-on-demand version. You can also find out about the accompanying app for smartphones. There will be links to both as well as the app. If you don’t already have them, this is the place to find out how to get your hands on them.
The Blog
There’s also going to be a link to Nick’s blog, which will cover more self-defense tips and simple advice pertaining to the field of self-protection. There will also be interviews with various credible instructors. Subscribe and receive pertinent hard-hitting advice from someone who knows what works firsthand and who isn’t just regurgitating theory. This will be a chance to get far more in-depth and stay current on the latest in the field.
Have any questions about the information in the book? You’ll be able to fill out the contact form and get a reply directly from Nick himself. Too many authors tend to be out of reach once the book is done, but Nick’s personal philosophy is that if you wrote it, you should be available to your readers if and when they need clarification.

If you’re interested in seeking out additional hands-on training, this will be your go-to source, whether that’s soft skills such as information about a particular destination, or hard skills, such as shooting and high-speed evasive driving.

Had a book signing yesterday at the Barnes & Noble in Birkdale Village, Huntersville, NC, and sold out in the first hour. Nice problem to have.
