Speed Matters - Learn Self Defense

I talk about different techniques of martial arts. Hope some of you will be inspired to learn self defense. We learn many things in life. You go to school and study because you need that in life. Education is the backbone of a nation and you should be educated.

If your life is in danger and you are being attacked, it is better to learn some self defense so that you can defend yourself.

When you are prepared, you can face the situation successfully. Learning self defense is not a fancy thing to do, it is a requirement for your self defense. When we talk about the fight, strike, counter-attack, it is not that we like to fight. What we all want is to save our life and go back home alive.

Sometimes I share videos and talk about different techniques and alternative techniques that you can apply in that situation. If you know the technique, still you might not be able to apply that successfully. It is because you are not fast enough. You have power, you know how to do it the correct way, still, it will not work unless you put speed in your movement.

If you are slow, you cannot react to the situation quickly. In a fight for self defense, you have to observe the situation, react to it fast. In this situation, you will see the speed and reaction time.

I have recently made posts about intercepting the intention. If you have not read that yet, I highly recommend reading that. Here's the link.

To intercept your opponent attack, you have to be very fast. If you want to intercept the kick, you have to kick your opponent before his kick reaches you. This is very effective in self defense. Likewise, if you figure out the attacker's intention, you can prevent him from doing that. And you can save your life.
