Reality Check Self Defense

Currently exploring knife defense from hold up scenarios. Firstly, if your possessions are all that’s wanted, give them up. Ask yourself, what do you carry with you daily you are willing to die for?
Physical responses against weapons are always risky, so you should only move if you feel in real danger with speed, surprise and violence of action.
Feel free to contact me with questions, suggestions or observations. Next class this weekend.

Had another great class on Saturday with Pam. We worked more applications around a car, establishing boundaries and using them for pre-emptive striking. Also looked at using positional awareness for approaching and loading vehicles.
I also put on the headgear to get a bit more realistic and let Pam work her strikes full force. Plenty of room for more!

Having a class on Saturday if anyone is interested. Start time is 0930. Feel free to message me for details.

Had a great session with Hannah today. We worked basic releases from single and double wrist grabs and counter striking to various targets. We also discussed various less than lethal carry options and deploying them from the grab position releases. Explored everyday carry practicalities of the expandable baton, various types of pepper spray and saps.

Had a great session this Saturday working with Hannah. We drilled some basic striking combinations statically, then moving offensively, defensively and from defensive to offensive, working on creating then taking space as the situation requires. So gratifying to see her improve every time!
