Produktbeschreibung
Gender-based violence is a frequent problem with serious consequences, encompassing the socio-cultural and psychological contexts of all those involved. Nowadays, movements have emerged with greater force to recognise women as strong, autonomous beings capable of exercising power over their lives, putting aside the stigma of passive, fragile and dependent women. As a result, the practice of martial arts by women has been growing, proving to be an activity that can have a positive impact on their mental health. The aim of this study was to verify the perception of women who practise martial arts regarding their empowerment to face situations of gender-based violence in society. The data collection procedure used interviews with some female martial arts practitioners. After analysing the categories that emerged, it was possible to deduce that martial arts can function as an instrument capable of promoting a feeling of self-confidence and empowerment in women, positively reverberating in their mental health.
