Self defense classes?

[big4life]

Does your gym offer them?

Have you ever taken one?


I used to set up classes for a shelter that I worked at, and I just think that every person, man or woman should go through one of these classes. They teach you a lot in a very short time about the items that you can use as a weapon that you might not think about using.

If your gym doesn't offer them, ask them if they could.

I would love to be able to take some of these classes. My dad keeps asking me if I am going to take them! I don't think he wants anyone hurting his baby girl...

Took Martial Arts for 3 yrs about 12 yrs ago. Made it to Brown belt level & still was very uncomfortable being put in a fighting position. They taught us how to kick but never how to punch. You know, after you get hit in the face about a dozen times you start to wonder if your really learning anything. Frustrated with it all, I quit. Later I started picking up some self defense tapes which demonstrated things that you never were taught in class such as : eye jabs, knee attacks, head butts, throat shots, elbow techniques, neck cranks, etc. To make a long story short, I felt I got much, much more out of those tapes rather than spending my money on stuff that I really didn't have much confidence in. Just my .02

Absolutely, martial arts is a great discipline to learn, but you can learn so much in a short time in a well taught self defense course.
