Are you worried about defending yourself against a younger, stronger attacker? In this self defence video, we provide practical self-defence strategies specifically designed for older adults or those with physical limitations.
We start by discussing the importance of de-escalation and ways to avoid conflict altogether. You'll learn effective de-escalation tactics that can help diffuse a potentially dangerous situation before it turns violent.
But what if you can’t avoid the confrontation? We show you how to create a distraction to buy yourself valuable time and opportunity to pre-emptively strike. Next, we dive into the best striking techniques you can use to defend yourself, including how to leverage your body weight to increase striking power, or use improvised weapons from everyday items.
Whether you’re older, physically limited, or just looking for effective ways to protect yourself, this video provides a comprehensive framework for staying safe in dangerous situations. No matter your age or size, these simple yet powerful tactics will help you defend yourself when it matters most.

    Unless you are alone in an alley, the various moves that you showed in this video could result in you (the "victim") being charged with a misdemeanor or possibly assault, depending on which state you are in. You, having made the first strike, are not the "victim" anymore. You became the instigator, the perpetrator. In Calif, you could be sentenced for up to 90 days in prison &/or $400 fine - plus, you now have a permanent police record. So, when in public, the people that watch this need to assess the situation really well, wieghing the risk of fine, prison, & police record against just walking away. As you turn away, watch the dude while you can, and then watch his reflection off a glass, mirror, whatever. Be ready, be smart, don't be the perpetrator. There are several comments below that are of the same opinion. So , think before you act.

    Angelo; i've been karateka from 13th until 45th year. Now i'm training alone in my barn. And yes, i used to be much stronger and faster when i was younger. So now when it comes to fighting, you have to rely on youre experiences. Just simply but effective technics to take youre opponent out. Not so much the flamboyant movements you used to make, haha... The older i get, the more effective these simple technics become... And it works... ;-) To get stronger train 2 or 3 times a week, and practice youre pushups! They really make you stronger, in every way. 80 - 100 per session is very effective for youre body.. And you can punch a lot harder.... not all at once of course, but distributed throughout the session. 15 reps, another exercise and then again...

    Using even an improvised weapon whilst possibly effective in defending and probably injuring raises a potential A.B.H. assault to G.B.H. if a charge results. This can be the outcome even if you are defending yourself - if it can be shown that you have not retreated to the last resort! Beware.

    Letting someone up in your face in the first place is mistake number one. Mistake number two is believing that a groin strike will end the fight: It will hurt, but it is often possible to fight yourself through it by will, adrenaline and determination. What do you think a trained fighter will do if you pulled a stunt like that? It won't be pretty.

      @@raullm6820 The video clearly shows a groin strike, and the "victim" being unable to fight. The video is unrealistic, you say? Yes, that was kind of my point: It *is* unrealistic *and* a terrible idea if the other guy is better trained. Anyone doing that will be on the receiving end like Joe Son. Are you sure you want to go down that route? In the *rare* cases where moving backwards/walking away won't fix it, a grip and a Judo throw is a better choice than most. It likely won't get you in trouble, and it is much more humiliating for the other guy than getting punched.

      @@raullm6820 Many of these encounters can be avoided by staying away from certain places, times and people. Secondly, one can try to defuse a situation and not responding to challenges. Walk away if possible. If all of these fail, only then I would recommend self-defense. You can't get any kind of sensible preparation from a short UA-cam video anyway. What you do get, however, is a false sense of security. It is like those women's self-defense classes where they think their techniques will work against a large, muscular man. "Why be careful? I got this!" One needs proper training, and that generally takes years of practice and sparring/competitions.

I do have a handbag that is not very large but has a lot of stuff in it, so it does have some weight. In the scenario, assume I am at a free-standing table with space on either side of me, but as an alternative what would be the best defense if sitting in a booth or cozy banquette in the corner of a pub, for example. Late middle age or early seniorhood, not athletic, female. I have just discovered your channel and have subscribed.

As I got older he decided to show me as a female, what he learned prevented me from being raped.
