LEARN HOW TO DEFEND YOURSELF!!!
Self-defense is a countermeasure for one’s own protection from danger. Self-defense can be physical and verbal. Physical self-defense is exercised because of the threat of physical violence. It can be unarmed or armed. The success of the defense depends on the ability of the attacked to defend himself and on the seriousness of the threat.
Unarmed self-defense
Martial arts are most effective in self-defense. With them, you train how to defend yourself against an attack with a punch, knife, or weapon.
Armed self-defense
Although there are many types of weapons that can be used for self-defense, there are strict legal restrictions. In order to use them, special permits and licenses are usually required and are valid for appropriate professions.
Water-based self-defense sprays and sprays with DNA markers that link a suspect to a crime scene are legal to possess. There are other products such as various alarms, whistles, tear gas, electric shock, etc. But learn to use them well or they won’t help you. Also, everyday objects can be used as improvised weapons for self-defense.
Verbal self-defense is defense using words to prevent or stop an attempted attack.
However, the most powerful weapon in self-defense is the knowledge and skill of self-defense techniques.
Self-defense training
It is recommended to have self-defense education. Training will give you confidence, and whether or not you remember everything you learned in self-defense class can help you become more prepared and aware of how to survive. Several types of self-defense techniques and behavior under the threat of violence are studied. Notable self-defense martial arts taught are Krav Maga, Defendo, Spear, Systema, Jiu Jutsu, Aikido, Bartitsu, Kodokan, Kickboxing, Muay Thai, Savate, Sanshou, Taekwondo, Judo.
Despite having self-defense education, an attempt should first be made to prevent an attack.
In your home
Do not allow strangers to enter your home.
Always keep your doors locked whether you’re home or not.
Use the hole to see who is at the door or open it very slightly.
Close the blinds or curtains so people can’t see in.
Light up your home both inside and out.
Outside the home
Be careful when you are outside
You avoid talking on the phone, listening to music, or texting if you go alone.
Have your car keys handy so you can unlock the car as soon as you get there.
When you get into the car, lock the doors immediately.
Do not go to an area where you do not feel safe
If you become the victim of an attack the following can help you get out of the situation safely.
Always fight back. In any situation, unless you are running away from an attacker, fight back at your attacker. When you fight back you have to hurt your attacker. You focus on the key parts of the attacker’s body: the groin, the eyes, and the throat, and fight with all your strength. Remember to get as close as possible to where there are more people who can see you and help you.
