About this user

I am a father of three and I have been a T4-5 paraplegic for the past 25 years. I currently teach self-defense to people who are at a disadvantage relative to their attacker. If you are interested in self-defense, please visit my website
www.not-me.org. The 5D's of Self-Defense

DECIDE is the preparation step. It is the foundation of self-defense. It is made of education, acceptance, training, conditioning, avoidance, and strategy.

• Education: about crime, criminal behavior, and methods of self-defense.
• Acceptance: the realization that you are responsible for protecting yourself, and accepting the reality of the violence involved in self-defense.
• Training: learning and practicing techniques of verbal and physical self-defense
• Conditioning: subjecting yourself to stress and adrenaline to pattern an effective response.
• Avoidance: abstaining from behaviors, actions, or situations that are potentially dangerous.
• Strategy: utilizing a plan of action

DETER is the prevention step. It begins when you leave an area of safety and continues until the moment of the actions of DISRUPT. It involves repelling all potential aggressors and building your readiness for a physical assault. It is characterized by awareness, intuition, attitude and appearance, assertiveness, body language, boundary setting, and deception.

• Awareness: knowing what is happening in your immediate environment.
• Intuition: listening and responding to your inner voice.
• Attitude and Appearance: projecting conviction and confidence.
• Body Language: if you are physically and emotionally prepared, it shows.
• Assertiveness: conveying to others that you are not a victim.
• Boundary Setting: the method by which you determine possible bad intention and if necessary prepare for imminent attack.
• Deception: conveying misinformation to your attacker to gain advantage.

DISRUPT is the violent and most physical step of self-defense. Its sole purpose is to create the Opportunity to Escape. It begins with the Trigger to Act and involves the concept of attacking the attacker to surprise, shock, or cause injury to your attacker.

• Trigger to Act: the event that propels you into physical violence against your attacker.
• Attacking the Attacker: invoking violent mode and using any means available to disrupt and interrupt his plan.
• Opportunity to Escape: the moment when you transition from attacking to escaping your attacker.

DISENGAGE is the goal of self-defense. It involves your complete commitment to get away from your attacker. Alternatively, it is the sum of your actions that has caused your aggressor to discontinue the attack. It is characterized by your flight to safety, or the aggressor's unwillingness or inability to continue his actions.

• Flight to Safety: getting to an area where your aggressor is no longer able to harm you.
• Aggressor's Unwillingness to Continue: your actions have changed your aggressor's mind. He is now fearful of pain, injury or discovery.
• Aggressor's Inability to Continue: your aggressor is no longer a threat. He is unable to continue his actions due to physical injury or to other circumstances.
