Self defense moves & Tactics

Tactic Name: The “Stop and Strike” Method

Concept:

This tactic focuses on creating immediate distance, targeting vulnerable points, and quickly escaping the danger zone with minimal confrontation.

Steps:

1. Stop the Threat: Use a loud, firm verbal command like “Stop!” or “Back off!” to startle the attacker and possibly draw attention from others nearby. This also establishes assertiveness.

2. Create Distance: Step back quickly while maintaining eye contact and your hands up in a defensive position, ready to block or strike.

3. Target Vulnerable Points: Aim quick, precise strikes to sensitive areas such as the eyes, throat, nose, or groin. Use parts of your body like your palm heel, knuckles, or knees for these strikes.

4. Follow Up with a Breakaway: After striking, immediately push the attacker’s face or chest to create space and turn to run.

5. Escape and Seek Help: Run towards a safe location and attract attention by shouting or activating a phone emergency alert.

Why it works:

- Combines verbal assertiveness with physical defense

- Focuses on quick, impactful strikes to disable or distract the attacker

- Emphasizes immediate escape to safety rather than prolonged fighting

- Suitable for all fitness levels and can be practiced regularly for effectiveness
