WWhy, after extensive 4 week self defense training under one of our best 4th Dan in London, I was unable to defend myself from a real, simulated and unpredictable street attack by an aggressive commando in a commando judo club. A true simulated run of a street fighter, hell-bent on taking you down, takes approximately 3-4 seconds or less in a surprise attack.

I was very confident in the self defense training I received in London and it was very successful. I was able to confidently defend myself against a series of simulated urban attacks. In this simulated commando attack, he was unprepared for the speed of his attack. Also, I tried a typical judo self defense technique against an unpredictable, aggressive and fast attacker.

(To) I tried to execute a Judo throw against this fast and aggressive attack.

(B) In doing so, I tried to make body contact, to allow myself to execute that Judo technique – I entered your potential control area, your space.

With respect to (To), never attempt to launch a determined attacker who moves fast because it will never give you the proper opportunity to attempt that pitch. If you happen to be successful, he will most likely absorb that pitch when he hits the ground and that would really piss him off. Also, you are now entering their space. giving him the opportunity to physically attack you. As long as you are focused on stepping in to attempt your throw, his hands are free to hit you in any way and he can easily kick you; you are totally vulnerable to their attack and it is a dangerous move to attempt a throw in an urban area. fight or in a bar.

With respect to (B), avoid entering your space, because the main objective of an attacker is to get close to you in order to physically attack you. Therefore, it is very important to avoid close (bodily) contact with your attacker. When someone has grabbed you or tried to hug you, your first reaction is forever To try to escape from it, your animal survival instinct is to escape. Therefore, NEVER give anyone a chance to get close to you.

Tip – When faced with a command, don’t smile or smile at him. Honestly, he thinks you’re kidding yourself. No, you are not a friend of judo; you’re something he believes should be removed painfully – happy memories of a painful experience.

The 42 Commando Judo Club taught their family members and ordinary students the difference between defending themselves in an urban fight or in a bar against the deadly unarmed combat tactics the Commando uses against an enemy.

In a self defense scenario, you walk away of a possible lethal confrontation, avoid has a possible problem. Avoiding gives you a 90% success rate in self defense. I have met many Self Defense teachers in the past, whose students are very good at avoiding a confrontation or possible confrontation, and have not had to respond to a physical defense situation.

A commando is trained to search for his enemy, to maim or kill him; His mindset and purpose is to destroy and to be successful, he must use the most lethal means of attack. YOU ARE NOT A COMMAND.

In self defense, you should never attempt to throw your attacker, as mentioned above. Can you imagine a 10-stone girl trying to throw a 16-stone puncher, who would just grab her and take her with him? There are rare occasions when an attacker shows up for a pitch, but that pitch is not going to stop him.

Another favorite Dojo “technique” taught to vulnerable young women is to place a Hulk of a man into an arm lock when he grabs his lapel or arm OWO, shiny, and these are often taught in many Dojos for “Black belts“Can’t bear to think what she now, in a dark corner of a parking lot or side street, is she supposed to do with this man in an arm lock ??????

If 90% of successful self-defense is based on Avoidance and awarenessSo what can you do when all else fails and there is nowhere to run or get away? In those critical moments, you must execute your physical response with minimum effort and maximum effect.
