KRAV MAGA -SELF DEFENCE

Most of us know that applying the pre emptive
strike when violence is about to kick of is
vital.

But sometimes we may NOT be as 'switched on'
as we should be - the attacker will have the
upper hand and you will have to rely on your
reflexive skills plus your defensive tactics. 

Kevin O Hagan is an expert in training these
types of skills, so we asked him for his
advice...

"If you are attacked, you will be initially
on the back foot and your natural 'flinch'
reflexes will come into play.

The 'flinch' reflex is important for YOUR
survival.

It is the impulse that pulls your hand back
from the heat of a fire or makes you shift
back quickly from a barking dog.

It is nature's way of protecting you, so you
MUST use it to your advantage.

Most people see the reflex as a weakness. They
feel they should stand SOLID and tall in the face
of danger but this is not always the best tactic.

If you are caught with a surprise ambush attack,
you will always flinch. It is how fast you react
from this flinch that will determine the outcome.

In my training, I get students to stand with their
eyes closed and they CAN'T open them until an
opponent grabs them in some shape or form.

They then have to immediately focus on the attack
and deal with it. This simulates as best as possible
the feelings of a surprise attack.

There will always be vital seconds of delay whilst
your brain registers what is happening and sends
a message to the muscles to respond.

Forget the simultaneous defence and attack
nonsense - that ONLY comes with prior knowledge of
the assailant's attack.

If it is an ambush or sucker punch you aren't
working with prior knowledge, otherwise you would
have pre-empted it or escaped in the first
place!"
