0114 – Tools of Unarmed Self-Defense: Your Knees
I love the fact that everyday we are walking around with a pair of sledge hammers to use to defend ourselves when the need arises. The premier striking tool we posses as unarmed combatants is without a doubt our knees. Today we will take a look at how our knees can be used as our most powerful tools of unarmed combat.
0113 – Tools of Unarmed Self-Defense: Your Elbows
Episodes 0111 and o112 laid some strong foundational information for the remainder the podcasts that will deal with the fundamentals of unarmed combat. Make sure you have given them a good listen before you continue on through the remainder of the unarmed combat podcasts.
0112 – Unarmed Self-Defense Tools: Your Hands
Other than our minds, the thing that distinguishes humans from most other creatures is our hands. It is the opposable thumbs of primates that allows us to use tools so effectively and this has allowed us to make the forward leaps we have throughout the generations. At times of violence, however, we may find ourselves without tools. It is then we may choose to fight using our hands as weapons.
0111 – Principles of Unarmed Self-Defense
I have been studying unarmed self-defense for a lot of years. I began as a student with Ian Kinder of Live Safe Academy where I gained an understanding as a student. Now as I continue to use Ian's material I have been gaining a new and better understanding of the material as I study it from the viewpoint of an instructor. As I have been reorganizing my unarmed combatives program I began to reflect on the principles of unarmed self-defense. Today as we begin an extended look at unarmed combat, we examine the principles that help to direct me as an instructor.
