Basic self defense:

Within this article I would like to share basic self defense knowledge and give you the skills necessary to stay alive and protect yourself and beat down your attacker with the following tips and advice on self defense and the basic things you need to know:

Basic self defense #1 - If you are a smaller or weaker person you will want to incorporate eye gouges instead of punches into your counter attacks. Different self defense styles including military martial arts and krav maga incorporate this move extensively and I also recommend it!

Basic self defense #2 - You should be training in a style of martial arts that you can incorporate easily with the self defense training you already have. You want to be able to use and blend styles of combat and fighting into your over all arsenal of martial arts techniques. You want to use moves that are easy to remember and use in stressful conditions.

Basic self defense #3 - So what are some decent styles of martial arts? I recommend full contact karate, judo, kung fu, ninjutsu, jeetkunedo concepts including Philippine martial arts styles! You want to have a full range of martial arts training under your belt to incorporate into your reality based basic self defense training.

Basic self defense #4 - You should constantly be active and stay healthy keeping your weight to a healthy level and keeping your body healthy is essential to survive in a martial arts tournament or on the streets in the heat of battle if you get attacked by two thugs.

Basic self defense #5 - Another more passive aspect of martial arts styles is staying passive and avoiding trouble. Just because you have a range of skills and techniques to destroy someone doesn't mean you should be involved in silly battles based on ego.

Those five basic self defense rules can help make you a better martial artist and give you the skills to beat down a bad guy if you need too!
