Ellen Snortland is a writer, director and producer who has been a women's self-defense advocate and instructor for most of her career. Her seminal work, "Beauty Bites Beast" has gone from book to film and chronicles not only her own journey in self-defense, but the journeys of women across the world who have developed a powerful sense of confidence and self-esteem as they have developed their potent ability to physically defend themselves.
