What I don't get is why in every video it is assumed that as soon as the bad guy is hit he's going to let go.

[chiefkamikaze]

isn't that cute lol..

[agostoDet]

aia aia???...incredible tecnique...no power. an attacker will be more powerful for adrenaline. I do not think they are real!women should be put in real situations



[danmarino1970]

you have a 250 pound nut on drugs.. not going to let go. your best bet os to secure the wrist and applying downward pressure while you step back.. then stick your thumb in his eye as hard as you can.. then if you can get if off.. knee kick to the face.. AS HARD AS YOU CAN.. then run.. run run..

@CheshireCatFun lol face plant. love that saying...

[robertgenito]

after they grab your hair, if you allow yourself to go down... it's not going to be such a great technique when they knee you in the face =\

ERRR.... BULLSHIT!!!

[redpillpusher]

soooooooooooooo not realistic. It still amazing to me that people with these lofty belt ranks are so incredibly inept when it comes to making a separation between martial arts and practical/functional "self defense". not their fault in actuality I blame their instructors and organization who ever that may be.

After watching several of these self defenses video's for women! I think the moves are good if the attacker is distracted long enough for her to pull out a knife,gun,tazer or mace. But don't count on these type of techniques to save your life alone. Most adult males are not going to be stopped by one or two hit's and women should carry some sort of weapon for protection.

Lol

What i he grabs and kicks in face so u cant lean forward to grab hand :D

[CheshireCatFun]

Why does she have his hand so far away from her center of gravity? Why not just keep his hand tight to her waist, and then use that to either face plant him into the concrete, or use the leverage to strike the elbow from behind to execute a joint break? He won't be grabbing anyone's hair after losing the use of his arm.

Likely attacks combined with a hair grab:

1-handed: slap/punch

2-handed: knee/simple drag to the floor

In the first case, bending forward and using both of your hands to grab their hands is likely to leave something open for an attack. On top of that, they're still in control until you release the grip, so taking a foot off the ground for a front kick is pretty much asking to be flung around like a rag doll.

In the second case the LAST thing you want is to bend over to meet their knee...
