Watching videos will help you understand the basics of self defence. These videos show you how to defend yourself against a frontal attack, such as a gun assault. Others concentrate on the use or a weapon. It does not matter if you want to defend yourself or help others.
Women's self-defense techniques
You've likely heard of women's self defense techniques if you're a female. However, most of them are overrated. For example, punching someone in the ribs is overrated because most women don't know how to punch hard enough. Elbow strikes and knee strikes are also considered borderline dangerous. They are close-range tools that are less effective against larger people. You shouldn't kick anyone in the head.
Students learn how to defend themselves in various situations. Students learn to use slow-motion techniques, full-power techniques, and body-shaping in order to strike back. They'll also be learning about biomechanics to help them move to their maximum potential.
Striking to the groin
Fear of being struck in one's groin is a great motivator for self defence. This is a very vulnerable area and many people cannot survive an attack without some form of response. These methods are not practical in real life. You might have seen some novelty martial arts, such as how to break steel bars with your hands and poke an apple with your fingernails.
Mirela demonstrates how to strike to the groin in this video. The basic idea is to strike with the outside of your target's groin, driving your knee forward. A front kick to the groin can be done by pointing your feet toward the target.
Striking continuously on the Bob Dummy
An important skill for any martial artist is the ability of striking continuously on a Bob Dummy. It is essential that you can strike repeatedly for several seconds. A Bob Dummy is available here. This will improve your strike power and keep your opponent guessing.
The BOB-dummy is made from polyethylene with a sturdy foundation that can hold up to 270 pounds water or sand. It measures thirty inches in length and twenty-two by inches in width. Its height averages 19 inches. It is approximately five to six and half pounds in weight. The Bob dummy can be used to practice essential combat moves, including jabs and cross, as well as self-defense.
Elbow strike
If you're close to your attacker, elbow strikes can be a great weapon to use to knock them off their feet. You should consider using a lunging elbow strike to throw your opponent off balance. This strike will hurt him or her in multiple directions. Watch videos about self defense to learn how you can throw an elbow strike.
There are two main types of elbow strikes: the vertical and horizontal. The horizontal elbow strike is the simplest and is the easiest to learn. This strike works well in both close range and in a clinch.

How To
How to properly apply pepper spray for self defense
To make sure that you don’t accidentally spray pepper spray in your face, gloves are the best option. This will help prevent accidental discharge from the gun.
The eyes are the second place to target when pepper spray is used. These are the most sensitive parts of the human body, and if the spray hits them, it could cause severe damage. Because the spray won't cause any burns, it is best to aim at the nose.
When you spray pepper spray, make sure to hold it tightly in your hand. Because pepper spray could explode if it is dropped, and the sprayer can start spraying everywhere. Once you're ready to fire, slowly squeeze the trigger. It's important to keep the trigger pressed down all the time, or else the pepper spray won't work.
Pepper spray works best if sprayed directly onto the eyes. However, aim for the nose if you cannot reach the eyes.
The pepper spray will start to make the attacker feel uncomfortable once it hits the mark. He/she may even become nauseous and dizzy. In addition, he/she will probably experience intense itching and burning sensations.
Once the attacker is dead, get away quickly. Don't let him/her get near you again. Don't hesitate to call the police.
