i am thinking of starting judo but would it help if i get in trouble on the streets

[realselfdefense]

Judo has a lot to offer but does take a significant amount of time to becoe proficient at. It's good to know how to handle yourself on the ground as well, but you never want to put yourself there intentially in a real altercation. Put your assailant on the ground and use your feet to get you away from danger. RUN!

vitals as you close the gap and make the move fuck him hes trying to kill you hes a worthless vicious scum snap the neck!!!!!

[realselfdefense]

I agree that you should never go into a confrontation expecting to get cut. That would be like crossing the street expecting to get hit by a truck. Immediately terminating the assailant is great for military purposed but can pose problems for civilians and law enforcement both legally and morally. It's not easy living with the fact that you've taken a life. In addition, in low light conditions or a sudden suprise assault you may not know that he has an edged weapon...

[realselfdefense]

... for this reason, your reflexive (muscle memory based) technique needs to closely resemble your technique against and unarmed assualt and target non-lethal areas of the anatomy. "I thought he had a knife" may not cut it in court if you snap someone's neck for swinging his fist at you.

@kensei85 Thank you for the link! And yeah, I'm going to study that video you sent and utilize it for my Next Belt Test.

[kensei85]

@HiddenAbilities I totally agree and suggest people study the Judo nage-no-katas, this video is good: watch?v=HGsFfVtos_c

eoi-nage (starting at 1 minute in) and uki-goshi (at 1.50) are effective knife defence throws (gives you an opportunity to escape or incapacitate). Aikido and Jiu-jitsu also have nice knife defenses, often involving turning blocks into armlock takedowns.

[HiddenAbilities]

@simpson4563 Yes, judo would be an excellent asset. In fact, I'm combining Muay Thai, Karate(Goju Ryu), and Judo for a knife defense for my belt test. Hopefully they allow me to combine them, as I have no experience in Muay Thai or Judo.

@LANO500 or just pull your own knife -_-

[CoachMichaelMarks]

@realselfdefense You are kidding right? Going into a confrontation with a knife wielding opponent is the absolute LAST thing you should do! Especially if you are unarmmed! Im sorry to inject a little realism in here, and I mean no disrespect, but You WILL get cut! Not if...YOU WILL! "in a knife fight the loser dies on the street, and the winner dies in the hospital."

[TheNewEmphinix]

I am thinking of learning martial arts. The real thing, not this Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, or Dead or Alive thing. THE REAL THING!

[LANO500]

Pull a Gun instead

[tnhl77]

Simpler then this dodge the knife jump backward works great and punch to the face right after the knife clears you body

@simpson4563

Good fun! A great foundation for fighting but not a whole building. You need more for effective selfdefence.

Better get some type of boxing skills in too or judo will get you knocked out, missing teeth.

Rolling around on the floor is the last place you want to be in a street or bar fight.
