CHANGING OF THE GUARD IN SELF DEFENSE
With most of my students and readers being already involved in the mixed martial arts they have with them some ideas on how to protect themselves in an all out violent altercation. But when they walk into my training centre that is set up as an apartment and back alley setting they quickly realize what they have learned in mixed martial arts class does not help protect themselves in a self defense situation because there tactics must be changed or altertered to be effective in a real life situation.
Lets take for an example being in the guard postion, in a mixed martial arts class you lay on a mated floor with a partner and do your thing. Now try being in the guard while laying on your couch or in a confined room what happens? You can move or do half the things that you normally could do from being on the ground in a wide open room. So practice the guard when lying on your couch or being in a furnished room and you will see to be effective you have to change things up.

TACTICAL SELF DEFENSE TECHNIQUES
When you train do your self defense techniques do maximum damage or are your self defense techniques haphazard. If you are just throwing techniques out hoping to hit or connect to your attacker than they are haphazard. The self defense techniques you execute have to mean business the first time around causing damage right away like blowing out his knee or causing him to gasp for air. Also when you hit someone it will cause a domino type of effect to your attackers body giving you time to follow through with a more devastating self defense tactic. Make sure your self defense tactics do damage on impact instantly.

SELF DEFENSE FROM CHOKES
The #1 thing to do when in a situation with someone trying to choke you out is to tuck in your chin so your attacker cannot take your airflow away. From there try to bite down hard and dont let go on his arm or hand and pull back hard on his figers. As you feel his grip loosen twist away immediately so you are out of the clinch.
Remember you are not fighting in a UFC match you are fighting for your life in the streets where there are no rules so get as dirty as possible to make the situation easier to handle for yourself. For there is no such thing as a dirty fighter only an educated one.

SELF DEFENSE STOMP TRAINING
In many of my self defense tactics I finish off on my attacker by stomping on his kneecap a few times to make sure he cant get back up. When training to get the most realism out of my stomping techniuqes I place a car tire flat on the floor and I stomp on it using my heel of my foot for this is the hardest part of the foot and prevents you from spraining your ankle for if you stomp with any other part of the foot your more pron to an injury. When stompping on the tire make sure when you make contact with the tire that tire flattens out, this then indicates that there is enough force behind your stomp. Remember to raise your knee high up to your chest then drop it down. To put your weight behind the stomp have your torso go slightly forward & down as you stomp.
