  • Slap him in the nuts. Then run like hell. No, a woman needs to eliminate the threat then and there. Notice I didn't say "kill".

  • Is there anything I can do if some asshole puts his arm around my neck from behind? I'm bigger, but he wrestles. Thanks

  • OMG Really? Why is every single one of these videos way to complicated she could slap him in the Nuts from where she is.

  • sifu so tall!

  • Why can't women just use normal martial arts instead of inventing a new one?

    And by the way, it shouldn't be called self defence for women, but self defence against men, as it can be used by men aswell.

  • Not a bad move, but it'd be better if she aimed her knee strikes at his groing or thighs.

  • Howc the girl can do so much still under the choke she really must have strong lungs and neck?

    REmind me a bit of Fred Villari ShAOLIN kEnPO

  • good idea!!! its even better that the video!!

    lol

  • Thats not going to work. Her knees arent getting high enough, and even if the would, the attacker would just withstand them long enough to choke her out or break her neck.

    Grab his balls with your hand, squeeze and rotate them. This is gonna twist them REALLY fast and heavy with a rotating motion. This will him so excruciatingly bad, that he will become uncontious. Also this leaves him with a testicle-Trauma which can only be solved by a doctor.

  • i apologize in advance if i offend anyone.

    but, this move will not work especially for a woman.

    as lehapankov suggested, either grab his groin or knife-hand strike his groin. or you could even pinch his inner thigh to make him let you go.
