128.214.175.78 Comments I have noticed that many martial art insturctors neglect to teach their students some things about self-defence situations, which may even be more important than actual fighting technique. A martial artist who was only defending himself with a successful techique might end up looking like a criminal himself, if no one noticed the actual attack.
Heads usually start turning only when the attack is over.
Often people don t know what their rights are while defending themselves and end up using either insufficient, or totally overkill force. Of course, most of these things can be handled just using common sense. I m not an instructor myself, I just attended a lecture on the subject.
