WHY YOU SHOULD TAKE A SELF-DEFENSE CLASS
BY JAVILL BYRON
IT PAYS TO KNOW HOW TO DEFEND YOURSELF. Whether you’re shopping at the grocery store, having fun with friends at a bar, or waiting for a tow truck after your car breaks down, you never know when someone could attack you. In these situations, knowing some selfdefense moves could come in handy. With that in mind, here are five benefits of taking self-defense classes.
BUILDS CONFIDENCE One of the more important benefits of taking self-defense classes is knowing you can protect yourself. This self-confidence will manifest itself more as you perfect your techniques and truly believe you can ward off any attacker in any situation. Self-confidence is important in everyday life, as well.
ENHANCES NATURAL REFLEXES Over time, and through continuous practice, you’ll learn what moves to use against different attacks and assailants. When your attacker grabs you from behind, for example, you may automatically slide your foot down his shin and stomp on the instep of his foot to get loose. In fact, your self-defense tactics will become so automatic for you, they’ll almost seem like reflexes.
GETS YOU IN FIGHTING SHAPE If you’re attacked on the street, you must have the endurance to execute the moves to subdue your attacker. When you take self-defense classes, you’ll build up your stamina so you can withstand the rigors of fighting and defeating an adversary. Maintaining a regular exercise regimen will also help you maintain your strength and physical abilities even outside of the classes.
Taking a self-defense class is a good idea for everyone.
Being prepared, getting experience, and feeling confident can help you stay strong and healthy.
