Self-defense week was kicked off on Monday with reviewing of "Fencing" and how to hit those who won't stop on their "off" buttons: Groin, throat and eyes. The most important part of the lesson was to never allow someone to take you away. Once they get you in their territory, your life may be over. Instructor Eric explained many important points that can be found in SAS and Elite Forces Guide Self-Defense by Daugherty. This book is available through Half-Price Books.
On Wednesday, we reviewed Monday's lesson and practiced as the instructors role-played aggressive persons that the students had to deal with effectively. The students did well expressing aggression and fast responses.
Saturday was more review and how to kick properly. Many of the students needed to improve their kicks. We also welcomed a new student, Francisco. Special thanks to Canyon for being such a great helper this day!
Next week is sparring week. Be sure to bring your mouth-guards and groin cup. For recommended brands see this article.
