Maiming and Lethal Self-Defense Combinations

Today, as opposed to sets of single pictures of good realistic martial arts combinations, I am going to show you the moving combinations of self-defense combinations in mpeg form. This film was taken during a private in home self-defense lesson in Wapahu HI located near Honolulu Hawaii (not far for an ex-mainlander anyway with a family in Honolulu HI) utilizing a self-defense drill called one step sparring which you can find in my printable ebook Bringing The Martial Artist Out From Within - Drills to Enhance Your Natural Biological Abilities to Defend Yourself.

What I intend to cover is to analyze these self-defense combinations and tell you what is correct about these self-defense combinations and what could be improved in these self-defense combinations. My self-defense student David, who has trained with me just a few months, going once a week when his schedule allows, does an excellent job with realistic basic self-defense combinations. He now hits so hard I prefer not to be hit by him myself. I am also not ashamed to analyze my own self-defense combinations in this Combat Martial Arts Ezine article since I am my own worst critic and always look for an opportunity to learn more as all good martial arts instructors and martial arts students do.

In most cases these self-defense techniques are illegal. It is up to you to use these martial arts techniques within state, federal, province, and country laws. I am only giving you the tools to survive an attack on you or your loved ones. You are completely responsible for the legal use of these self-defense techniques and the safe practice of these self-defense techniques.

These self-defense combinations will be simple to use, but will require practice. I know many martial arts instructors will say, “Yes in a fight it's okay to strike to the knee, but we won't do it in here because it's too dangerous. Guess what? YOU WON'T USE THEM. If you do not practice these self-defense combinations, when you are under the stress of a self-defense situation, you will not use them. You will, instead, use what you been practicing, perhaps a nice flashy flying side kick and then get your !@#$ kicked.

Not fooling around against a larger man (myself), David attacks the primary striking areas while controlling the arm I attempted to strike him with. The thankfully pulled technique to my face was an eye-strike. Notice also David does not attack a single area, but attacks high and low decreasing the chances of the attacker being able to block all of David's counter-attacks. Anyone of these counter-attacks could have put me down. By utilizing the counter-attacks in combinations such as this the chances of one or two of these techniques getting through increases by a large amount.

David dropped his right arm during my attack. His right arm should be in a defensive position for secondary defense. His (subscribe for 12 issues) strike was slowed down for my safety. He would have snapped into my (subscribe for 12 issues) and back into a defensive position. David's final strike to the (subscribe for 12 issues) was not the best form, though by utilizing a primary striking area correct form was not totally necessary to disable his attacker. David should have kept his back straight and bent at the knees as he struck with his downward knifehand strike thus getting his body into the strike. See my printable ebook on Internal Energy Strikes.

The best thing David did here that I wanted you to see is he followed my back during the spin. This is a great technique for ending up behind your opponent so follow this mpeg well. David then kicks me in the back of the knee to buckle my knee since my legs, due to practice, were not far enough apart for a groin kick, and utilizes my lack of balance and surprise to strike my (subscribe for 12 issues).

One thing to remember with this evasive tactic is that the closer you get to your attackers back the easier it is to avoid the spinning attacking technique. David could have followed closer to my back to make the evasive movement even more efficient. David could have also considered staying away from me and kicking me at a distance till I went down, or for pure survival, he could have run away once he got around to my back. That, however, was not part of the one-step sparring drill we were using that I had developed. David could have used his left hand to grab my hair and yank it back as a further way of controlling a larger attacker or even as a (subscribe for 12 issues) takedown. Instead of targeting my (subscribe for 12 issues) he could have attacked the (subscribe for 12 issues) with his fist or palm heel thus decreasing the chances of me blocking the attack.

David attacks me in this scenario with a left ridge-hand strike to my (subscribe for 12 issues). This attack would be the same angle as a left hook, which is a more common street attack. I block with an outside to inside knifehand block and utilize one of my favorite means of coutering the attack by counter-attacking the same side as the weapon hand I was attacked with. By doing this it means that side is exposed and my counter-attack less likely to be blocked by my attacker. I follow up on my couter-attack concentrating on the primary striking areas. When I execute my elbow strike I maintain a hold on my attacker's left wrist so he does not get away from me uless I feel I am out of danger and let him go. I finish up with a neck breaking technique by (subscribe for 12 issues) maintaining a hold still on my attacker's left wrist decreasing the number of weapons he can attack me with assuming in order to survive my attack I must use lethal defense.

By not striking immediately as I block I open myself up to another attack which I must be aware of.

David attacks me in this self-defense scenario with a roundhouse kick. I wasted no motion in setting my leg down after blocking and attacked his (subscribe for 12 issues) with a front kick . The other combinations were done according to the way my attacker reacted to my counter-attacks.

My students are never prompted to react a certain way as they pretend to be struck and are indeed scolded for expecting a certain reaction to a strike and not reacting to the way the attacker himself actually reacted. For example I will never tell a student to always bend forward when kicked in the groin for his/her partner practicing his/her counter-attacks. Indeed I will promote different reactions to the same strike to make the student think.

I had to reach a little too far on the initial front kick and should have used a slide with my support foot as I was kicking for greater follow through ability and greater damage to my attacker. My left hand went back a bit to far and was not in a defensive position as I executed my initial frontkick to the knee.

I like the idea of using the power of multimedia to show you the actual moving self-defense combinations. I think there is a lot more to learn from them than just observing still pictures of self-defense techniques and trying to figure out what happened in between the still self-defense pictures. A thinking martial arts student or a thinking martial arts instructor will see a lot more than what is described in the moving self-defense combination. The problem is it will make for short articles.

This file is already over 2 megabytes. I have quite a few more combinations I want to cover and critique in order to give you, my loyal readers and serious martial artists, the tools to survive a confrontation and protect yourself and your loved ones. I would appreciate your opinions on these combinations and will print them in the next Combat Martial Arts Ezine. Let me know also what you think about showing the moving self-defense combinations with mpegs.
