Dude, i saw a lot of shorts from you. I hate self defense. I usually think it doesn't work. It doesn't work without a real training in combat sport and a real physical condition. So i love how you work. I came on your channel from a short that i liked. So i decided to see your latest video. And it's amazing. Self defense i usually see, an ex-UFC fighter that i like (Cyrille Diabaté) calls it "mytho-jitsu" (liar-jitsu). But what you do is real, because it's your job and you know how to deal with it. I also work in a security job and i love what you do. Using one opponent to make a shield between you and the other, and staying in one vs one situation is smart. Keeping the fence is too. I follow you and will watch your older vids! I'd like a guy like you to teach your knowledge in my job, where you can sometimes feel alone with some colleagues who don't know how to deal with violence or an angry guy. Thanks for the content.
Hey! I like your content very much. Been following you almost a year by now. You gave a lot of good information in this video like any other video you produced. How you were reacting so calm and coordinated in this situation, also the guys disrespected your personal space / fence is very amazing. Me personally, I would have reacted (punchred) earlier especially the guy in the blue jacket. Keep on giving us the good quality content! Heartly greetings from your neighbour country Germany 👊😉👍
As a Security guard in England this is absolutely fantastic training material. You are so spot on, you are defensive, talking to them, trying to stop them verbally, keeping good distance. Amazing. Then they pushed too far and had to go to sleep. Great work.
This went quite deep into the wrestling with ego, fear, adrenaline overload prompting a new and dangerous element, but when you have skills all of this can be brought under control, (with enough training!), but I did love when you showed your empty hands up and right there tattooed on your left side of hand I think it says in Chinese (it’s very blurry but I think the first character is I / me) “I am a and the second character looked like shi, loosely translated (because the character can’t be translated into English properly) a sort refined person, or gentleman of sorts, more the refinement of a Samurai, a soldier, a true combatant“ and the last character I couldn’t see clearly. So I’m guessing in that sort of vain. Pity they couldn’t read that, because you showed the refined side and then the other side and showed them the error of their ways! As always; food for thought for those that work the doors and the general “Joe”. Food for thought to be in control of yourself, even when the proverbial is about to happen, or already in its swing, unless in outright war, you have to be aware of what is deemed as necessary in the eyes of the law and therefore, make that first strike(s) haymakers and continue until you have negated any further threat and pause in your mind. There’s always cameras about nowadays and justifiable response, even if preemptively, is acceptable in the eyes of the law if you are indeed in fear of your person or about to be killed, when every response is allowed and make sure it’s the right response for the right “incident “. The jewel of all this is “Awareness!” Great video!
I was a bouncer in Canada for 20 yrs and it was in a mining town where there was a lot of scraps and we could have definitely used a fella like yourself with that much self control, intelligence and fighting skills to handle a lot of our skirmishes. Excellent video and commentary. Extremely well done
One of the best examples of handling multiple attackers as well as doing everything possible to de-escalate a situation I have ever seen. Thanks for sharing this video.
@schoolofselfprotection brother, you are. You have little ego, teacher sometimes, student always. You are a true warrior and your teachings are a blessing. Well handled brother. Your teachings have helped me much to assist others. Thank you!
I've seen my JKD/Kali/Thai instructor fight 2 times in real life. We had to step in to keep him from getting his ass kicked both times. He's semi-famous and renowned in the JKD/Kali world and even now when he openly discusses his altercations in his current life his JKD/Kali goes out the window. He himself says he falls back to his Shooto/Thai Boxing training to solve the problem. He's one of the reasons I stay away from papertiger, cultural dance teaching "Martial Arts" instructors and why I follow @schoolofselfprotection, Michiel, and Lee Morrison. P.S. Common mistake Thai Boxers and other Kicking emphasis art practioner's fail to take into account is what the Turd in the blue jacket did. They don't take into account their footwear or the surface they're standing/kicking on. As strong and effective as Thai is I've seen plenty of practioner's, my former JKD/Kali/Thai instructor included, slip and fall on their ass trying to use a Thai roundhouse. Another mistake is believing all people have a common response to being kicked in the leg, specifically the sciatic nerve portion of the leg. Some drop like flys, absolutely. And SOME just flinch, smile, and keep coming. My2cents.... Late
Top tier video. The amount of patience and self controlled you showed here is off the charts. There are so many guys talking about "i would do this and that", BS. Too few are the real deal like this.
I've never seen a real-life self-defense situation explained so well. It means a lot to us ordinary people to know what to do and how to respond to things like this. Thank you very much. And keep up the good work.
Key here for ordinary ppl; when everyone is safe, stay safe. This guy was working as security and should not go outside if he was not working. He did an incredible job as a security guard tho!
THANK YOU for sharing explaining and breaking down in detail, the importance of showing several de-escalation opportunities first which shows (if a random camera is filming) keeping it legal, the single file stacking along with pointing out random people recording (Which will not help you thank you for saying that) which also could possibly go against you if not filmed in entirety. (single file is so important.. with putting multiple opponents as much as possible ..number of opponents matters and will not be as easy with 3-4 ect). I know you motioned were against/ feeling a certain way about showing/ breaking down a personal video of you in an "actual" scenario. I THANK YOU BECAUSE AS AN INSTRUCTOR TEACHER IT IS IMPORTANT to be able/have the ability opportunity to actually show as an extra added learning tool it and not just speak of it/teach it. It hits home of understanding much more effectively.. so... again... Michiel I applaud you and I Thank you!
Brother, as someone that grew up in Romford (Which is a bit of a party town in East London, England, a pretty rough place to say the least, I wouldn't be surprised if Lee is familiar with Romford as it was very popular among doormen, especially in the 90's) I've seen many fights and I've seen many Security Guards and Bouncers handling situations. You were SO kind to these two trouble makers, you gave them chance after chance after chance and you waited a LONG time before finally taking physical action. It's so clear that you really wanted to de-escalate the two guys instead of hurting them, and you were so measured in your response as well. My hat is off to your Michiel, you are a true professional and you have the patience of a saint! Edit: People need to understand that there are some security guards out there, that will kick the living fuck out of you just because you said something they didn't like or looked at them the wrong way. Michiel didn't lose his shit like that and was able to keep his cool, even with two aggressive men in front of him talking about a gun! The level of self-control that shows deserves a world of respect.
Im from Madrid, Spain, and I follow you since a time ago. I also work as a security guy, I practice MMA , and some of your videos are gold for me and my colleagues. This one in particular, teach us how to deal with this kind of threats. Thank you so much for your lessons and your videos and your time. You are a great professional and a great teacher. If I visit your city sometime, be sure I would go to join into your classes if you allow me that. Thanks again. Greetings
Another fellow PO, here. I think you hit the nail on the head "whilst on duty" but if you were off duty this would be your best course of actions. No kit, no immediate backup, and being responsible for your actions to a greater degree as well. This is pure gold. Just wish this guy was in my area.
Cool level headed approach. I like how you showed how you keep them at arms length which you emphasize in all your training videos. Some people never want to deescalate, you gave them all the chances to do it. Excellent video for training purposes.
Love your content, thanks for the good solid work. As a retired SF guy from the States, we've trained and used many of the concepts you teach and preach in combat to great success. Not knowing your laws, I feel like you were spot on with all responses, if not too restrained 😉 One thing that did make me nervous, though, and this is not a critique, was letting them get back to the scooter at all instead of keeping them away from it until the police got there and making them get it back from the cops. If the gun was in the bike, they could have started shooting back through the hotel doors at everyone inside out of anger. You do great work and have a solid tactical mindset!
You are a great example to professionals and the public alike. You tried to calm the situation down for far longer than you legally had to sadly they kept pushing provoking and attacking so legally and morally it’s their fault that you had to go to work Conscience clear and you did do the bare minimum. Well done my friend total respect to you keep showing the world how to defend its self if and when it sadly has to
Well done and explanation given! You can only apply this if you know what it's all about👍. Daring to do this is also something you can partly train, but it is not for everyone. Always realistic content, keep it up👊!
Muy buen control emocional y de la situación. Gran flanqueo y situación en línea de los individuos. Tuvo mucha paciencia. Intentó en todo momento la desescalada con posturas no violentas, algo esencial para nuestra posterior defensa judicial. Excelente trabajo 👏👏
Good job on keeping the guy away from his motorcycle as there could be a weapon in it and you need to drop your opponent as quick as possible if there's any mentioned of any kind of weapons. A gentle reminder to keep both hands up during engagement. Great content and have a pleasant day!
Wish I had the chance to train with you. I did a few workshops with Lee some time ago but ended up injured through judo and gave it up. He’s starting a wed night class again so I need to get back on it. Fantastic video mate and those 15 mins worth more than much of the bullshit combined on UA-cam about so called ‘self defence’ that will likely get you badly hurt. 5 stars!! You also seem like a top guy
Salute to you sir. Sir, can you make a video on how deal with gun or how to defend it. I understand people can easily put that into the category of bulsido self defense but so far you are the most realistic self defence instructor i came across in my life therefore I wanna your perspective on that situation.
Detailed breakdown. Multiple attackers, yes, line them up, frustrates the hell out of the ones that can't get to you, good footwork. Your video and altercation completely affirm what I've been taught in the past 16 years of self-defense training for "the real world". You mentioned that if you are forced to act that you can predict how bad it's going to go for these two characters. Your ego was in check, not an easy task, but you're also working security, so you know the law. As for bystanders helping, that's a thing of the past, they won't take out their phones to call police, but they'll use the camera, and in many instances that camera footage will be more to your advantage than them getting in your way. Statistically, for those people that don't finish the fight, they are more likely to lose the fight. Running away is something I hate to hear. Especially when women are told to knock your attacker down and run. He's going to get up and catch you. So, like you said, "if you don't like me kicking the guy when he's down, I don't care, fuck you." LOL, so true. I'm sure that once you heard "gun" that's when you knew that you had no choice. Great work.
great job ! and really professional ..... not sure if i would have been able to stop there because of the gun thread and the adrenaline kicking in but your way is 100% the right one !!!
Great video learned a lot more from you from your videos than the years of classes see in the video looks like you used a punch instead of a palm strike is that cause you come from a Muay Thai background big respect M from Scotland
Love the content. Thank you for such a great breakdown. Can I ask why you punched instead of the palm strike which I see so much in your training material? Would love to understand if the context of the situation was better for a punch versus palm strike. Thanks again
🔥LEGENDS NEVER DIES🔥 Top video! Zeer goed dat je je eigen ervaringen deeld want dit gebeurt er daadwerkelijk op straat helaas. Je hebt een bekend gezicht heb je niet eerder getraind 10-15 jaar geleden in Leiden / Nieuwegein bij Mario en Branimir van Krav Maga Nederland toentertijd? Jouw kanaal is een van de betere NL YT kanalen in dit genre: “geen punten boksers”🔥🔥🔥 Amatooo 🥊😎👍🏽💪🏽👊🏽
Aight! Aan jouw manier van handelen en technieken die je toepast en vooral de explosieve style is herkenbaar. Mijn kids zitten nu bij Mario die heeft ook zijn eigen school Protect Invest. Be safe stay safe 💪🏽
Never thought to comment on something like this but here I go with my experience. Back in 95 or 96 my brother and I got into a tussle with more than 15 to maybe 25 guys. Just me and my brother in a free for all in the middle of the street ...... with just about all the neighbors on that block all outside their steps witnessing this event. No one jumped in. My brother and I are not trained but we had no choice because my mother , sister n law where with us and they would have also been victims. So my brother and I took all these guys on 2 or 3 at a time using that same strategy you used to keep one in front of the other. Footwork was so essential. For every 2 to 3 hard punches we gave ......we would receive one surprise punch to the head. We hung in tight and never fell to the floor. Me and my brother literally had our backs to the wall of a home ...shoulder to shoulder punching and head dodging away punches. When all was said and done the folks on that block were shocked that we fought so many guys and not once fell to the floor. We had 1 black eye ....broken glasses and a shirt ripped but we survived and even got a compliment from one of the neighbors saying a gave a guy a brutal kidney shot that sent him to the ground in seconds. I personally don't remember that. Any way , since that day I gained a sense of self awareness in the streets. You did a great job my friend.
That's the main thing about this type of situation and others...de-escalate if you can and escape. If you must engage, understand your surroundings, your opponent(s), threats of any kind, and respond accordingly. Great video and breakdown of the fundamental things you teach!
The worst part of being attacked today is, as you say, no one will help you. But they will happily film you, because getting "likes" on social media is more important.
Interesting observation of human behaviour. Passers by do just that. Pass you by whilst filming the situation. Blue coat feels brave with black coat in front of him. Black coat feels brave with his mate right behind him. They tried to intimidate you saying 'Get the gun'. Your restraint and reasonable use of force is worthy of your instruction. Physical encounters usually make one question the effectiveness of their methods. Your methofs are in my humble opinion, the best in the self-protection business. Thank you for sharing.
Dude, i saw a lot of shorts from you. I hate self defense. I usually think it doesn't work. It doesn't work without a real training in combat sport and a real physical condition. So i love how you work.

You handled that as a true professional.
Well taught,

I appreciate that!
Élő példa, hogy a harcművészet nem csak technika, a pszichológia is beletartozik! 👍
Its rare to see instructors actually in Fights! Amazing!
You are like the real Jack Reacher.
I’m nothing special brother. Thanks for the kind words!
@schoolofselfprotection Anytime man, huge fan of your work and Lee Morrisons of course.

There are so many guys talking about "i would do this and that", BS. Too few are the real deal like this.
Nice One. Some people say you are not into deescalation and just into preemtive striking. This one prooves those guys wrong.
Those who say that have absolutely no clue what we are teaching. Thanks for the kind words!
I've never seen a real-life self-defense situation explained so well. It means a lot to us ordinary people to know what to do and how to respond to things like this. Thank you very much. And keep up the good work.

Another excellent video 👍
That’s such a good point about bystander intervention - it never happens these days!
Brother, as someone that grew up in Romford
(Which is a bit of a party town in East London, England, a pretty rough place to say the least, I wouldn't be surprised if Lee is familiar with Romford as it was very popular among doormen, especially in the 90's)

Excellent analysis of an increasingly common situation. Thank you. Glad you are safe.
Much appreciated!
Another excellent video Michiel!
Amazing video, thanks coach

Would be a honor! Always welcome! Happy it’s helps you brother.
Awesome!!! You did right brother. Thank you for this , love your system.
You are very welcome!
Very instructive material! Thx for sharing!
Glad it was helpful!
Your information is SO valuable. Thank you!!!!
At least they made it into an educational video. Probably more they ever will achieve in their life's
Excellent. Thank you for sharing.
Great work man 🙏
Good job!
Walking the walk! Well done.
This is great!! Not for the unfortunate moment, but you understand, we can learn a lot from this video.
Awesome mate!! Very good control of the situation. You didn’t use more force than necessary. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks 🙏🏻
Great video again!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very interesting and I'm very impressed how you solved it!
Well done.
Many thanks!
Absolutely fantastic situation coach
Good video. Thanks for the feedbacks. Keep going!
Thanks for sharing, very informative.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for sharing.
My pleasure!
Great work. Excellent instruction, very informative and reasonable...rather gratifying, too, tbh. Thank you. Appreciated.
Glad it was helpful!
This dude is a real one. LOVE his videos and his approach to threat assessment and resolution. 🙏🙏🙏
Much appreciated!!!
Good job. As a Police officer, I wouldnt be so patient with them while on duty, but I understand why you want to play it save to avoid a law suite.
Another fellow PO, here. I think you hit the nail on the head "whilst on duty" but if you were off duty this would be your best course of actions. No kit, no immediate backup, and being responsible for your actions to a greater degree as well. This is pure gold. Just wish this guy was in my area.
Really good self-control and control of distance 💯
You fight with the intent to win. Great breakdown.
Great job
A great example, supported by a detailed explanation of how to act in such a situation!
Keep up the good work!
Glad you liked it!
Nice one!
Awesome video,good job!! Because of watching your vids and learning from them I want to learn Dutch now!!!
That's awesome!😂🙏🏻
Excellent after action break down. Glad you are ok and you fared well in court
Much appreciated John 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Good Video, thank you.
Thank you too!
Also AMAZING explanation on the use of force!! Well done sir!
Thank you kindly!
Great video! I like the structure. Would be great to see a little summary with the full ‘situational video’ playing in real time at the end.
You're Wright, good job👍
Love the way You think man!
I appreciate that!
Well done sir
Work of art. Respect!👍🏼
Much appreciated!
You did very good.
Very informative

Well done mate
Thanks brother
Knap gedaan kerel. Kudos voor jou!
Bedankt!🙏🏻
Good breakdown
Thanks!
You are a great example to professionals and the public alike. You tried to calm the situation down for far longer than you legally had to sadly they kept pushing provoking and attacking so legally and morally it’s their fault that you had to go to work Conscience clear and you did do the bare minimum. Well done my friend total respect to you keep showing the world how to defend its self if and when it sadly has to
I really appreciate your kind comment.
Well done and explanation given! You can only apply this if you know what it's all about👍. Daring to do this is also something you can partly train, but it is not for everyone. Always realistic content, keep it up👊!
Best explanation of a real video, we, ordinary civilians :), have a lot to learn from you.
You did what you had too! Amazing!!!
Thanks!🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you for explaining and sharing your professional advice on desculation. And how to deal with it 👍
Glad it was helpful!
Great breakdown. Would really like to see a video about how to deal with two or three people trying to grab or take you down.
Good job love your Chanel
Thank you!
I learned a lot watching your channel thank you
Great video, my friend,
Such a small ego for a man who is so capable,
A true professional,
Stay safe. 🙏
Very kind of you. Much appreciated🙏🏻🙏🏻
Well done mate! I'm sure they were sore and embarrassed!!!!
Always good to have real world experience
Masterclass about combatives' principles in a real life situation 👏 Proof that the pre-emption is the key that a lot of self-défense people need 👊
Michiel always great your explanation, respect the way you gave them so many times to walk away....bizar they even were allowed to try to sue you,
Yeah the world upside down. Thanks for appreciating!
Well Done Sir ...... Bermondsey London England UK .......

Statistically, for those people that don't finish the fight, they are more likely to lose the fight. Running away is something I hate to hear. Especially when women are told to knock your attacker down and run. He's going to get up and catch you.
So, like you said, "if you don't like me kicking the guy when he's down, I don't care, fuck you." LOL, so true.
I'm sure that once you heard "gun" that's when you knew that you had no choice.
Great work.
Great real world example of the UC gameplan in action, great work.
great job ! and really professional ..... not sure if i would have been able to stop there because of the gun thread and the adrenaline kicking in but your way is 100% the right one !!!
It’s pretty challenging sometimes! Thanks for appreciating 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Excellent bro, controlled situation, greetings from Argentina... I also teach self-defense
Keep it up!
everyone who worked in security buisniss will see how critical your situation was and will understand. you did it right. i am with you in that case.
Great video learned a lot more from you from your videos than the years of classes see in the video looks like you used a punch instead of a palm strike is that cause you come from a Muay Thai background big respect M from Scotland
Respect back brother!🙏🏻
Love the content. Thank you for such a great breakdown. Can I ask why you punched instead of the palm strike which I see so much in your training material? Would love to understand if the context of the situation was better for a punch versus palm strike. Thanks again
Classic...Well Done Michiel, Well Done..
Much appreciated brother!
wow great video i see you tried and tried but they kept coming back at you you hendled that with class thank you for sharing that
You are so welcome!🙏🏻
🔥LEGENDS NEVER DIES🔥
Top video!
Zeer goed dat je je eigen ervaringen deeld want dit gebeurt er daadwerkelijk op straat helaas.
Je hebt een bekend gezicht heb je niet eerder getraind 10-15 jaar geleden in Leiden / Nieuwegein bij Mario en Branimir van Krav Maga Nederland toentertijd?
Jouw kanaal is een van de betere NL YT kanalen in dit genre: “geen punten boksers”🔥🔥🔥
Amatooo 🥊😎👍🏽💪🏽👊🏽
Jazeker! Ronny Ali ( van Brani) heeft me als eerste de kans gegeven om les te geven!
Aight! Aan jouw manier van handelen en technieken die je toepast en vooral de explosieve style is herkenbaar. Mijn kids zitten nu bij Mario die heeft ook zijn eigen school Protect Invest.
Be safe stay safe 💪🏽
Never thought to comment on something like this but here I go with my experience. Back in 95 or 96 my brother and I got into a tussle with more than 15 to maybe 25 guys. Just me and my brother in a free for all in the middle of the street ...... with just about all the neighbors on that block all outside their steps witnessing this event. No one jumped in. My brother and I are not trained but we had no choice because my mother , sister n law where with us and they would have also been victims. So my brother and I took all these guys on 2 or 3 at a time using that same strategy you used to keep one in front of the other. Footwork was so essential. For every 2 to 3 hard punches we gave ......we would receive one surprise punch to the head. We hung in tight and never fell to the floor. Me and my brother literally had our backs to the wall of a home ...shoulder to shoulder punching and head dodging away punches. When all was said and done the folks on that block were shocked that we fought so many guys and not once fell to the floor. We had 1 black eye ....broken glasses and a shirt ripped but we survived and even got a compliment from one of the neighbors saying a gave a guy a brutal kidney shot that sent him to the ground in seconds. I personally don't remember that. Any way , since that day I gained a sense of self awareness in the streets. You did a great job my friend.
Respect
That's the main thing about this type of situation and others...de-escalate if you can and escape. If you must engage, understand your surroundings, your opponent(s), threats of any kind, and respond accordingly. Great video and breakdown of the fundamental things you teach!
Thank you very much!
@@schoolofselfprotection you’re welcome sir! 🫡
The worst part of being attacked today is, as you say, no one will help you. But they will happily film you, because getting "likes" on social media is more important.
Absolutely! Frustrating to say the least!
Nice 👌🏼 the restraint you showed was impressive but when you had to GO …BOOM 💯🔥🔥🔥👊🏻…bad time for the bad guys 💯👊🏻🤙🏼
Interesting observation of human behaviour. Passers by do just that. Pass you by whilst filming the situation. Blue coat feels brave with black coat in front of him. Black coat feels brave with his mate right behind him. They tried to intimidate you saying 'Get the gun'. Your restraint and reasonable use of force is worthy of your instruction. Physical encounters usually make one question the effectiveness of their methods. Your methofs are in my humble opinion, the best in the self-protection business. Thank you for sharing.
