Avoid Fearing Attacks By Learning Combat Tactics

By Thom A Huloe


Having just transferred to the city makes me mindful of my personal safety. Each time that I go by a dark street, I can't help looking over my shoulders constantly, worrying that if anybody ever assaults me, I am defenseless against it.

I have realized that learning how to protect myself physically can help me prepare for a risky situation. Following a word of advice coming from a close friend, I bought a number of self defense videos to be able to learn combat moves.

What I like with regards to studying techniques from instructional fighting videos, instead of attending a class, is that I could set the speed to my learning. I don't feel virtually any pressure to get a move fast to catch up with others.

Among the many self defense DVDs I have acquired is "Advanced Combat Tactics" by Shannon Stallard. It taught me to protect myself against more than one opponent. I also learned how to calculate my moves to minimize or eliminate missteps.

By simply practicing with "Combat JKD" by Chris Clugston, I came to know the best way to perhaps manage a group of enemies. Before watching these types of DVDs, I never thought that I am capable of getting physically aggressive to assist myself.

I learned movements very easily as every single trainer carefully explains and demonstrates those in the most basic ways possible. I guess they understand that the men and women wanting to know these types of moves aren't fighting specialists and have probably never been engaged in a physical fight in the past.

"Fight to Win" by Jim West, although kind of dark and brutal, coached me on throwing punches and kicks and the best place to land them to make them matter the most. Mastering these kinds of movements will assure that I can overcome an attacker regardless of his size as well as power.

Now that I have tried a few important combat techniques from my self defense videos, I feel a renewed sense of assurance. Despite the fact that I'm not stupid enough to start a fight to prove my skills, I could say that dimly lit walkways no longer scare me.
