Top 10 Martial Arts for Self Defense

Martial arts as spectator sports and a great way to get too big, but they really came when undoubtedly the final result is used for self-defense, for many of them. This list looks at ten of the best martial art, if you're interested in particular, to protect from attacks.

1.         Krav Maga

It is the Israeli national martial art, largely by IMI Lichtenfeld and disability survives designed dedicated for the purposes of the road. No. quarter is provided or marked.

It includes western boxing punches, karate kicks and knees, Greco-Roman wrestling, Jiu-Jitsu, Brazilian ground fighting of JIU-Jitsu Brazilian raised and adapted confrontation and above all "cutting", of Wing Chun. It is a defence and simultaneous attack: to block, rather than an attack and then type a response, you block the attack and respond at the same time, i.e., block with the left arm and push ahead with legs, beat with the right fist to the throat, all at the same time.

Also stressed are attacks on vulnerable parts of the body: eyes, neck, and bar. Attacker can expect testicular ruptures. The focus is also on they disarm attackers with knives and guns and turn these weapons on the attacker. It is also exclusively hand-eye coordination until defence requires second nature to the and no thoughts. And good Krav Maga instructors teach all of this to anyone, regardless of athletic ability, in only 3 to 6 months.

2.         Keysi Fighting Method

You see in Chris Nolan Batman movies. He was Justo Dieges and Andy Norman developed on the basis of experience, Dieges in Spain. Batman martial arts technique is the comic included in the price are more efficient to charge because Batman is a genius in the fight against crime and the time and effort to put criminals from waste. Ten or twenty bad guys how to systematically attack and Dieges and Norman designed style to defend against this many people. It seems impossible, but after 6 or 7 years of training in that document, which isn't too terribly long, everyone can perform the necessary movement. You are a machine.

Nolan looked never imagined for a style of fighting on screen, then rapidly close to each other, but fierce, quick and dirty. Classical Tae kwon do is beautiful to watch, but terribly inefficient on the street battle, where there are no rules.

Keysi fighting method has almost no kicks of any kind. He thrives on extreme close combat with all weapons in the body can quickly swing into a small space: fists, head, knees and elbows.

There is only one could know, and if you look, you can do it: "a man who thinks" with hands on head and elbow, head, neck and chest high. It looks like a man, his head in deep to keep in mind.

It should hit with sharp elbows and many Hammer fist, straight, much more powerful and devastating as punches, because they use the upper part of the body in society outside of the muscle, which comes from the root of the small finger, wrist, like a hammer against the target.

It is a mixture of styles, with elements of the confrontation of jujutsu and Aikido, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, narrow strike fighter land and the defense of the central line of Chung and Jeet Kune Do trapping method. Keysi fighting method teaches healers for protection from any number of attackers, 5, 10, 20 and even more, with a range of 360 degrees, aggression and all the objects in the environment, their potential to monitor firearms.

3.         Brazilian Jiu-jitsu

This hybrid mixture of permanent shocks with ground fighting and JIU-Jitsu throw co-edit and control the enemy effectively ends the fight very quickly pointed out. More ahead the easier it can be feet, with its focus against him and forced him to send (or fainting).

Once on the ground, the first thing Brazilian Jiu Jitsu teaches take branch and split it at the link: Kneebars for snapping knees or ankles, arms, elbows and wrist alignment bars to ensure a flexible and powerful legs torso forward to defender in the fight with fists or elbows to the ends.

4.         Western Boxing

You've heard the stories about potential aggressors to collect a poor old man into the Cup. The fight ends usually with swings. This is all you need. In fact, Boxer has (wrongly, in my opinion) in prison to protect itself, thieves, murderers, thieves, Bank, etc., on the grounds that their hands are lethal weapons. Boxer throwing blows stronger, faster and more accurately, like all other trained fighter on the planet.

This is because the Boxer on average 4 years of training to do just that: punch properly. They are not allowed to enter, while their hands, all that they have. View Rocky Marciano knocked out Rex Layne's right hand off balance, out of reach with a 16 oz leather gloves are covered. 10 feet above the ring from the throat and four of his teeth at the gumline beat this fist mouthpiece Layne destroyed.

Boxer also strengthen their religious authorities to intensify every day until their muscles for endurance and durability. You see not as hulkingly large as bodybuilders, but their muscles are so strong and hard as a farmer.

You kick, block, Bob and weave and punch, block, Bob and weave backward. Are you bored mercilessly Maxim "always protect yourself." hands on both sides of the head, squatting, so all the body ready for explosive strength and the fuselage through the forearm is protected.

Its purpose is to the side of the Chin, tear off the attacker's head on the page and his brain is cut by pinching the spinal cord in the neck. His strength and his role in anger. He immediately will be darker.

5.         Jeet Kune Do

Bruce Lee introduced the style of no style ", which seems absurd. But try to understand the concept of adaptation. Lee, in particular, stressed: "the worst thing you can do is predict the outcome of battle." you don't have to think how his attack and your response about everything. Disable all other thoughts in your head, or slow you down.

To make use of the situation, the situation of the Western fencing "warning". Stay forward, backward or forward, move, bouncing on the toes of the left, the right foot forward, to be able to interact with the other leg. Footwork is very important in a real fight, because it can determine how far away you are from an attacker.

Elements of the Wing Chun trapping close of hands and feet; Not feet, which is higher than the size, there are higher than in the groin and standing leg vulnerable; and simultaneous attack/Defense (see # 1).

Elements of JIU-Jitsu include body are discarded and strike deflection. The emphasis on speed combinations and well trained professionals, you can press the neck the attacker up to 10 times per second.

6.         Jiu-Jitsu

This is the most versatile style in this list. This is a true hybrid, festhaltenen complex elements, eye gouging, choke holds, bite, joint locks and defender of the center of gravity forward focus of awareness.

You throw an attacker by lowering your focus under sound and the shake it about you or with you. It's easy and effective. If he attacks with weapons, this hand catch, then deliver the punch knife collarbone, although push it back and down, locking the weapon wrist and splits.

When he accuses or one round hit, it must be on the other foot. The turnout you, kick, leg stretches and offer their own in his knee while standing back, then around her raised leg moves outwards. It will go down, and probably not much retaliation.

If he charges forward packs and your shirt, you won't go back. Go ahead and fold, RAM hips in belly, shoulder, on the one hand and on the other his access to his back and he hit on the shoulder with two feet above the press. 100-pound woman, it is very easy to make a 250 pound man. You can then put his hands and one to tighten his joints, this time below.

7.         Wing Chun

Wing Chun Kung Fu is an art that Yip man taught Bruce Lee and Li rebelled against as too slow and too formal for self-defense. This is quite misleading. This means that it is not enough to get him in the fight against professional martial arts experts like Jack Mann, with whom he fought a famous duel Wong.

Whether invented its own version of Wing Chun, # 5, due to a defect, the entry was that he noticed in Wing Chun. Using this method, he defeated WONG in 3 minutes, when almost anyone would have much more time, other fighters in the world and will hurt a lot.

He won with Chun stamp signature: using the hip, rather they are very fast, shoot fast left blowing on the right breast of the attacker, not the stomach, throat, but the sternum or solar plexus.

Block enemy attacks, on the one hand and fist react in his chest with his fist to go again, drilling you. Integer adds, makes the movement towards the front of your body, in connection with the weapons, the average woman 100 books, Pereklad about 300 pounds of force defeated several times in the chest from an attacker. Only the left is to practice your speed accordingly. 15 Photos, before the attacker reacting to is not forever. These brands have the advantage of the elbow close to the coast prevent grabbed forward keep punching hand.

It is the protection of axial attack, such as such as a turret punch or Rotunda. The shortest distance between two points is a straight line, so instead of having to pick up more energy around to swing and rotate the hips, the attack hit at the same time one comes to throw directly into the womb. This will be the first time take up almost all of the legs if you as hard as possible.

The closer that this method helps shorter people, as a woman, to protect itself against the alleged rapist, etc. .. Two people, this is easy, because the shorter man penetrates into the larger person, effectively

8.         Aikido

Interesting art that is instantly recognisable. He moved some startling in it, but for the most part, it is based on the principle that if an attacker, it leaves some of their vulnerable defense. If you do not attack him back, you must remain defensive invulnerable.

Do not confront you, his attack. Use the momentum against him. Steven Seagal is the most famous practitioners of Aikido in the Western world. It could be that terrible actor, but this is real Aikido black belt degree and his signature move 7 FC important self-defense arsenal: Kote gaeši, or "Forearm return".

The attacker steps forward and throws the right punch. Dodge held her wrists to snatch you up and turn around in time with his kick. The law and make it completely out of balance, with its own dynamics, while you turn around and wrist straps. It may turn like a classic theatrics Seagal film, but violates his wrist may well. It's unlikely that more fight then.

Most critics of this art, that it is almost impossible for the average person, black belt kick catch and turn enough to move quickly to make, but it is not. This is actually a very simple process to learn and improve.

Aikido thrives shared locks that require not so much to do in Cote gaeši speed and extremely effective immobilization and the possibility of losing an attacker.

9.         Karate

Here, the emphasis on attack deflection. Most of the strikes or knives run slots directly to you, not in an arc. Some fighters are stupid, try a loop Turner.

So step aside, a lateral line of the front arm, strikes that the aggressor must be stamped or the knife with one hand, then quickly pull down his side, abdomen or back with the other hand. It is very hard to defend and probably not in place. To take driving and knee in his quadriceps muscle it hurts like crazy.

A strike with the face and head are important, but the attacker will expect that you, remedy, it attacks with a right hand with your left hand (or vice versa) for the block and as hard as you drill, the rotation of the hips with the other hand in a soft spot under the belly. This target is the solar plexus and beats his disability as effectively as a kick in the groin.

In addition, if he charges forward, you have to hit as hard as possible in his stomach or solar plexus, not the old ball with legs up. When one of the older lenses hit the attacker in the agony, the Centre of gravity of the connection will be forced. It is a front to refuse all support and is causing in the inguinal area in which you swing.

10.       Kickboxing

Firstly, and applies to all records, if you're on the street and a stranger to you, or worse, I don't know, probably, of the struggle which left swings for the fences and go into motion. "

There are some variations in Kickboxing is famous for Muay Thai, which roughly translates to "art of eight members.

Kickboxing for self-defense on the knee focuses its version of punches and kicks: fast-paced, annoying and all available openings. If the attacker has a gun or knife and hand weapons are used. Thus, the defenders has several arms, hands, feet, knees, elbows, head of the military.

Just go in the direction of the attacker (who has any weapon but a gun) and bring you the front directly against his Chin as hard as possible. Kickboxing thrives on this type of move and she teaches the practitioner works faster that an attacker can react with such extreme speeds this risk includes ' enter ' fantasy. This is right and this will almost always break his jaw, crush his larynx, his teeth break, forcing to bite his tongue, etc.. He would then fight. This type of kick is well prepared to the point that it really can be implemented effectively, that is to say, quickly and powerfully, without being telegraphed.

An alternate step aside to understand hand weapons of pirates and sling your forehead to his nose. It will give you no harm, as you might think. On the other hand would break the nose of the attacker, such as Fireworks.

Well trained kick boxer to practice something called "Qi for the fight, which is the physical part of the body, repeated injury, to whom he sends more than enough to make the pain signals to the brain about the man. Kickboxer strong enough to pain, a handful of Bat baseball top and bottom roll up for hours every day for 2 years. Tibia is repeatedly damaged and rebuilds itself stronger and thicker.
