self defense stories
Thursday, October 22nd, 2009
For most students of martial arts and self defense training is not a critical, life threatening mistake they are doing. This error is so important that if not corrected, you could find a worse self-defense situation for someone who never studied martial arts and self defense at all.
This critical error is part of what I call, the Karate-Myth. It, along with a host of other "false beliefs", "not only can do all your hard work, study, and martial arts defense training and completely useless …
… You can get broken, maimed, or killed in an attack in the real world of a criminal attacker is not going soft and slow, like their colleagues in their martial arts training or self-defense class!
And guess what?
Its not just a mistake that students are doing. This error is being made and transmitted to others by so-called self-defense experts and martial arts black belts too!
Let's get something clear before letting him into my little secret. And that something is this …
… It is not matter_
- how well you think you know martial arts technique, or …
- how good you are to make that move in self-defense – class.
All that matters when the rubber-meets-the-Road and is face to face (or worse) with a brutal attacker who wants you dead is …
… CAN YOU then?!
You must realize something now, and no mistake about it. You must understand that, unlike most people in your life – unlike her mother, a major arts martial, or partner or self-defense of students …
A real attacker:
- does not care what color belt
- care techniques not many know
- not impressed with the names of people who have studied under
- not going to help you his technique correctly as your friend in the class makes – and a lot of other things you can use to impress others with his skill and "knowledge".
Just think about one thing and one thing only. And that's one thing to smash or knock down and get what he wants from you.
That "something" "could be:
- win the argument they were having
- get your money
- get what is protected
- make a point or a statement (as in the case of terrorism or violence at work)
- make you suffer, or …
- have on your life!
So what is this big mistake? I think you have a very good idea by now, right?
The error I'm talking about is mistakenly believe that the formation in any martial arts or self-defense class without the knowledge, understanding and experience of what the real situation of a self-defense is like …
… be permitted to defend effectively against a street punk with a real knife, 280 pounds or a dock worker who got you drunk in a crushing bear hug and squeezing the life of your lungs!
Do not misunderstand me. I am not suggesting that you go into a lot of fights, or walking through the worst parts of town looking to get mugged so you can get real life experience of self-defense.
But at least you can ensure that the person you're training with – he is learning self-defense – has the experience and knowledge you need.
You should find a teacher, a mentor or teacher with real world experience or training end up being like the blind "-leader of the blind!" If you do not know what you need, you have to find someone it does. And if you do not have the experience, you should find a teacher who does.
A street fighting self-defense situation is not the time to discover that This has been spending their hard earned money, time and effort in the …
I do not work!
In a future article we'll discuss how you know if the program is worth something or not – even if you do not have a true global fight or defense experience. But for now, can do some basic tasks control some news and find out what some of the most common attacks you may have to defend themselves.
