December 9, 201114 yr Yeah, I like to get in shape, but then something like this might happen, and you might want to be ready:http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/more-sports/ufc-mixed-martial-artist-turns-tables-robber-beat-shot-leg-gun-report-article-1.987367 It's not what you do that matters, rather, it's how you do it that defines you.
December 9, 201114 yr Fantastic! Thanks for sharing. Makes me wish all the good guys knew martial arts. The mission of my blog is to explore the connection between the skills learned in the dojo as a student of the martial arts and the skills that lead to a successful life. https://www.lifeskillsfromthedojo.comhttps://www.facebook.com/lifeskillsfromthedojo
December 23, 201114 yr He certainly did a number on his face! This is one of the many reasons as to why I chose to be a martial artist instead of a boy scout (to elaborate, I had a choice between the two). Martial arts training is 30% classroom training, 70% solo training. https://www.instagram.com/nordic_karate/
February 24, 201214 yr Yay, one up for the good guys for a change!! ''Board's..........don't hit back'' The late and very great Bruce Lee, in the movie Enter The Dragon.
March 11, 201214 yr A daring move to say the least. One mistake and he could have been dead. I'd say that story is quite the opposite of self-defense as he was actually putting himself in harm's way, but still props to him LOL
July 31, 201214 yr Wow, cool. I wish everyone knew martial arts...well the non criminal people at least. Tang Soo Do - Red Belt (2nd GUP)
July 31, 201214 yr Guns... very very very dangerous weapons to defend against. I only started getting gun techniques at 2nd kyu. Scary stuff because if you execute the move wrong, you can get yourself, or a bystander shot. Shodan - Shaolin Kempo███████████████▌█
July 31, 201214 yr Guns... very very very dangerous weapons to defend against. I only started getting gun techniques at 2nd kyu. Scary stuff because if you execute the move wrong, you can get yourself, or a bystander shot.Forgive me, but what do gun techniques entail? I'd imagine that if the gun is drawn and they are close enough for you to do any technique, then you're already screwed unless you can talk them out of it. They'll be able to pull the trigger much faster than you'll ever be able to defend against it.My gun technique is to hand over my phone, keys, purse.. whatever they want. I can always get another. Getting shot isn't worth it. "Everything has its beauty, but not everyone sees it." ~ Confucius

The only time I would try to defend against a gun is if I knew I was going to get shot no matter what. Shodan - Shaolin Kempo███████████████▌█
