What you can do if someone grabs you underneath your
arms and around your body. By "Shihan" Farhad
Dordar
Any
time you are attacked your brain assesses the situation
you are in very quickly. Try not to get nervous and
remain as calm as you can. Believe in your self and
your ability to defend yourself. You will change your
life with this belief. Try to memorize each scenario
and practice it about 300 times with a partner until
it stays in your memory. In a real situation you won't
have time to think - you must be able to react as fast
as possible. A few seconds could save your life.
If someone grabs you underneath your arms, you can use your
attackers clothing to obscure their vision.
Reach down to your attackers waistline and pull his or her
shirt out from their pants.
Pull
your attackers shirt over their shoulders and then over his
or her face so they cannot see. The attacker will want to
remove the clothing from over his or her head so they can
see and he or she will release the grip on you.
As your attacker releases his/her grip, bring up your back
knee and knee your attacker in the face or groin. While your
attacker is down, take this time to run away and call for
help.
