msb12 | October 20th, 2008

There are so many variations on Jiu Jitsu Throws, some take advantage of the attackers momentum, some take advantage of momentum generated by the thrower, others require good leverage and others may require good mechanical technique. It is knowledge and practice of such areas that allows people to take on much larger and stronger opponents.

Jiu Jitsu forms the basis of Judo (Throwing Techniques), Karate (Striking Techniques) and Aikido (Joint Manipulation).Judo is one of the Arts that was extracted from Jiu Jitsu, so throws could be practiced safely in a sporting type arena. The Judo throws shown above are the same as the throws used in Jiu Jitsu.It is such variety that makes such a great Art for us to be involved in, the Jiu-Jitsu Throws are just one element that is very dynamic and attracts much attention.

Simple Self Defense Techniques
msb12 | October 14th, 2008

I just returned from a Self Defense Course where most participants initially have little or no belief in their ability to protect themselves but quickly begin to understand the need for Simple Self Defense Techniques, that is using everyday, Gross Motor Movements that everyone uses each and every day and use them to perform really effective strikes.

For example, there is reaching into the cupboards to grab a glass, now if you can do that then you have all the necessary motor skills to perform a real effective open hand strike and when targeted towards the nose, chin or side of jaw can be made super effective by anyone.

Other movements you make each day include reaching over your shoulder for your seatbelt in the car, if you can perform this movement, you have all the necessary motor skills for a solid elbow strike. If you can raise your foot, like when you place your foot on a raised surface to tie your laces then you have all the motor skills for a knee strike to the groin or thigh or even stamping on someone’s foot.

When some important additions are made, like showing the student how to rotate the hips and shoulders, strike through the target, to shout out when striking, to target weak and sensitive areas, these types of strike can become completely devastating.

Self Defense must be simple to be effective under pressure. People are simply not capable of carrying out complex movements in a high stress situation like that of an attack. It is essential that simple self defense techniques are learned and practiced.

There are so many simple self defense techniques that most people are already capable of performing and are very surprised at how quickly they can become confident in using them.
