The attacker seems tough from outside and does something to scare you. Whatever the attackers do or try to show, they are weak from inside. Sometimes your voice and body language can send the signal that if they mess up with you, they will be in trouble.
Welcome back to Self Defense Situation # 136. Every situation is different and you cannot fit one thing in every situation. What works in one situation, that might not work in another situation. When you fight for self defense, your move should be based on the situation.
When you are scared, you usually do not do anything to prevent the attacker. Maybe you let them do whatever they want. Suddenly the attacker can push you or grab your shirt with both hands.
If you know what to do to defend yourself when the attacker is in front of you and he grabs your shirt with both hands, you can turn the table over. You can put the attacker in a vulnerable position and protect yourself in that situation.
Let's watch this video. Then we talk about it and what problem you might face while defending yourself. All video credit goes to Shahabuddin karate.
The attacker grabs your shirt and there is a enough gap between his both hands. You can use this technique that showed in this video. Grab the attacker's one hand and turn. Then you can strike to the attacker.
Sometimes I say some techniques are not that effective. It does not mean that instructor is not good enough. It is a good thing to have different opinions. We can learn from each other. I love and respect martial art instructors.
Let's talk about what you might face while applying this technique. First of all, you lower your head and turn. If you are not able to do it fast, the attacker can hit you. Of course, it depends on the attacker's skills. Since the attacker's hands are close to your neck. When you grab his one hand and are about to turn, the attacker can hit you on your neck.
If there is not enough space between the attacker's both hands, you cannot move your hand like this. So you need to consider that as well.
To defend yourself in this situation, you can use other techniques. If the attacker grabs your shirt tight, you can simply hit on his face. He would get distracted. You can grab his elbow, bend, and move him to the side, then you can go behind him.
So what would you do in this situation? Please feel free to share that in the comment section. That's it for now.
Stay safe. Always be happy!
