Why Is It Important To Learn Self Defence?

By Mukhzani Mustaffa


Why is it important to learn self defence? Just buy a pepper spray, stun gun or even a gun. Use these instead of having to spend hours of time trying to learn self defence techniques. You will get the same result minus the time 'wasted' trying to learn self defence techniques.

However, just imagine you are in the same situation. Let's say that the attacker tries to rob you and your pepper spray is all the way in your bag. By the time you try to look for it, he has already grabbed your bag and ran away with it. Or even worse, you manage to pull out your pepper spray and there's a struggle. Then, your attacker manages to overpower you. You will be in a more dangerous position because your attacker is now pissed because you fight back and he's now holding your pepper spray.

Someone might say, just forget about your money because it's not worth it. Okay, let me give you another example. What if you are going to use that money to pay for your son's medical bill that is gravely sick with a critical disease. You sure you just want to hand over your money?

What if you just finished your work and on the way back to your car. Someone grabs you from behind. Instead of just robbing you, the attacker wants to rape you too. What if you got bullied, instead of just slightly hitting your head, your bully got carried away and starts punching you in the face. You can't just let him punches you. Dodge it and push him away.

Self defence is really important for all cases like these. You need to have the knowledge and reflex to respond in these situations. If you get jumped from behind you need to know how to free up yourself and just run away. You need to be able protect yourself and get away from trouble the best you can. Don't prolong the fight, respond and run away.

Most people don't want to learn any self defence technique because they think it will consume a lot of time. Well it's true. But only if you want to be Jackie Chan or some sort of mma fighter. The goal is, to have the reflex and technique to respond to your attacker and run away from danger as soon as possible. If someone grabs you from behind, you need to know how to break free and get away as soon as possible.

All you need is to spend 10-15 minutes 2-3 times per week, or better yet spend 30-40 minutes once or twice per week and substitute it with you weekly routine cardio exercises. That is all the time you need to build up your confidence and reflex.

Finally the goal is to protect yourself and your loved ones. If you simply do not have the time or unwilling to spend time to learn self defence technique, just get yourself any self defence product. Just make a habit of placing it at any easily reachable place. But if you have the time, learn some self defence technique just in case.
