  • what if it is a women that knocks you down ???

    do you kick them in the groin ????/

  • Practice and add to your toolbox. Build upon it and keep moving. And please enough with the "it wont work" comments from the (I wear a "Tap Out" shirt and watch every UFC experts). You win a fight, you survive an attack. You kick,bite,claw your way home against a bear or gator to survive. News reports say "Person survived an attack by a bear or gator" Never "A Person won a fight with a bear" Same with an ATTACKER not the same as an OPPONENT. In the ring you agree to fight. Not in a attack.

  • @COOLANDFUNDESIGN Kick in the leg or knee instead

  • Oh man - will she destroy her collar bone if she fall like that... NEVER EVER break the fall with your arm like that on a har surfice! If it was me I would have trapped the attackers heel and kick on the inside of the knee to take him/her down. The groin is overrated!

  • @justd3rd I get tired of those comments too.

  • GREAT! I teach womens' self defense and that's exactly the right move.

  • @COOLANDFUNDESIGN you can kick the knee :] that'd be good cuz you could hyper extend or break their leg and/or maybe strip their knee cap >:D

  • @7Mushrooms7 You have to kick REALLY hard to disable him by kicking the groin. You will need much less power to hit other areas with the same efficiency. Also, it is good to know how to work with other areas because a woman don't have groin, so it is even more difficult to use this trick against her (you need to be extremely precise to go that way).

  • The way she shows the kicks won't hurt that much, maybe stun him for a second or so but hardly much more. Hit the leg that is supporting his weight will be both much more effective, and easy (since the knee or the area just above the knee is much more easier to reach, and the fact that you will have more power kicking there thanks to a proper alignment with your body). If you can't kick, try to get your legs inside his advancing legs and work on the knee joint, either by breaking or bending it.

  • I had a man attack me in the grocery store parking lot one time. Little did he know I'm the daughter of a Krav Manga instructor. I quickly disabled him by thrusting the heel of my hand into his nose, breaking it, and striking into his clavical, disabling him. I like taking the pit bull approach and going for the throat.

  • @7Mushrooms7 depends how hard you kick. lol.
