Why Your Self
Defense Doesn't Work
Reason # 1 is awareness. By paying attention to
your surroundings you can see “what is wrong” with your environment
and be able to detect the attack ahead of time and respond accordingly.
Inner awareness is even more important because if you’re distracted
by thoughts or if you’re not able to remain calm, the attacker will
get the best of you...

Self Defense Tips
Do as much as you can to avoid a confrontation - "anticipation

Aiming
for the BEST Targets in a Self-Defense Situation!
When discussing self-defense for beginners and those new to the
realm of self-protection, I'm often asked "If I just want
to get out of there and need to shut this guy down fast, what are

and the need to make these arts instinctual. Therefore in those
days the combat arts were a lethal art. It was a war-developed form
of lethal hand-to-hand combat, which would render a man inanimate
by means of unconsciousness and or death, preferably within one
strike. Reason being, when encountering an enemy...
