Women's Self-Defense Instructions.
Self Defense has been always essential in any era to save oneself. To train in Martial arts are the best way to learn to defend oneself. But what and how to train? What to train is very important. Women do join short-term courses and after learning a few moves and tricks feel that they are able to defend one. Having faith in moves and tricks shall never lead you to defend yourself and it is just going to give you an idea of how to save. Without proper training is like going in battle with guns but no bullets.
We strongly feel and firmly believe that every girl child or woman
should spend an average time giving importance to “Self Defense”.
Education is important to lead a successful career and martial arts important to survive for a career.
We have experience of 18 years in teaching martial arts to people of various age groups in India and abroad.
We have come upon the following facts which everyone should work upon for self-defense.
1. Keep yourself physically fit.
2. Analyze your weaknesses and work to eliminate them.
3. Learn martial arts skills thoroughly and apply them practically in training. Remember the way you train the way you will fight. (Only learning is not enough but applying it).
4. Learn the additional methods of avoiding confrontation (The highest martial arts skills are to win a battle without using martial arts).
5. Believe and trust in oneself. (It will only come if you are able and strong).
6. The most important is using your common sense and presence of mind.
Only learning skills shall not help you and at the same time, you should also learn how to use, when to use, and to tackle the situation with ease. Remember negative elements of society are not weak and we have to face and win them. For this, you need to prepare well. Don’t try to dig the well when it’s raining. But prepare before it is going to rain. Learn the “Self Defense” before something happens and not after something happens.
