Where is the martial in the Martial Arts?


Recommended Posts

yeah good cycle of defense that... very similar to the responsibilities and requirements made by law [to be sure you're defending yourself]

if a situation escalade and looks uncontrolable, i attack first. Usually in very few situations ive been to, my confidence and calm dissuade people. I'll take that any time.

Thanks for the thoughts, guys...

If you do end up fighting, there are always ways you can control the amount of damage done, which is more likely what I would do. You don't have to axe kick the guy's collar bone into oblivion when you can armbar or wristlock him and hold him down until he gives up.

However, I would take Master Parker's advice (I don't know if he meant exactly in this instance, but...) and never leave your opponent on his feet. Armbar/wristlock/whatever...talk him down, then kick his legs out and get the monkey out of there.

Peace;
