What is self-defense? Have you ever talked yourself out of a bad situation? Have you ever had a bad feeling about walking to your car by yourself so you had someone walk with you? That is self-defense just as much as blocking punches and kicks. Any action that protects you is self-defense. In fact it is often the other aspects of self-defense, such as awareness and communication, which are just as important as the physical aspects of self-defense.
Attend any good self-defense class and a good portion of the class will be dedicated to teaching students awareness skills. Learning how to recognize and avoid bad situations is the best way to protect yourself. Parking in well-lit areas, walking to your car with your keys in your hand, and being aware of what is going on around you will prevent you from getting into a situation in which you have to defend yourself.
What is self defense? We have all gotten into arguments. Sometimes these arguments can escalate into fights. Being able to talk your way out of these situations before fists fly is self-defense just as much as blocking punches. Communication and negotiation skills are self-defense skills that can benefit you greatly.
Taking martial arts classes, or a self-defense course, will teach you how to physically defend yourself should the need arise. But, there are other mental aspects of self-defense that are just as important. The good thing about martial arts training is that, if done right, they well teach you both; the mental and the physical.
