SELF DEFENSE CLASSES
Posted by admin in Self Defence on January 24th, 2009
There are different types of self defense classes that you can take to learn techniques that might save your life in an attack situation. Some self defense classes are based in martial arts traditions and teach a lot of martial arts moves while some classes are pure self defense and combine the grabs, punches and other moves from a wide variety of martial arts and fighting disciplines so that students learn the best moves that could keep them alive.
Self defense classes teach more than just moves you can use to escape an attacker. Self defense classes also teach you how to hone your senses so that you are more aware of your surroundings.
Most importantly, self defense classes can teach you how to react to an attack without panicking and without freezing. When you are in an attack situation it’s very important that you are able to react without freezing up or panicking and the only way to really train yourself to not freeze up is practice.
Self defense classes are a safe place for you to practice how you should act if you are ever attacked.
Another benefit of self defense classes is that you can learn how to get hurt and keep going. For most women the shock of being grabbed or being hit during an attack is enough to knock them off balance and make them stop fighting.
In self defense classes you can learn how to take a hit and not get thrown off by it.
No one wants to be in a situation where they are going to get hurt but if you are being attacked being able to get hit or injured and keep fighting just might keep you alive.
There are different styles of self defense classes. Classes that are purely martial arts based usually focus on learning kicks and punches and blocks.
Classes that focus more on teaching basic survival skills sometimes have an “attacker” that is used to put students through the experience of a real attack where they need to fight back.
Many women find this experience very traumatic. Often it takes women two or three times before they can find the strength to fight back.
Padded attacker classes are usually considered the best way to prepare for being attacked because you will be able to fight back full force, just as if you were actually being attacked, without having to worry about hurting the person who is playing the attacker.
Some people disagree though and think that padded attacker classes are not a good way to learn self-defense because the attack situation isn’t realistic.

Know when it’s time to get physical and how to get physical
Posted by admin in Self Defence on January 22nd, 2009
If your diffusing techniques aren’t working and you have to physically fight for your safety you need to know how to do that too. You don’t need to know a lot of complicated martial arts moves you really just need to know basic and effective self defense moves that will give you a chance to get away from an attacker.
You might think that you don’t need any self defense training to accomplish that but it’s harder then you might think to fight back against an attacker. Women are conditioned to not fight back, not get upset, and not hurt others.
You should really take some self defense classes where you will get to defend yourself against a real attacker so that you know what it feels like.
Defending yourself in a gym full of other women against a padded attacker is different than defending yourself against a predator with a weapon that might hurt or kill you but the important thing is that you learn to react without fear.
Fear is your enemy in an attack situation because fear can make you freeze up and if hesitate for even a moment you might not get out of the attack.
