It amazes me
just how much BS there is out there about defending against
more than one person. I have guys tell me stories how
they fought off three of four guys and came out without
a scratch. Or the one how this five, foot four inch guy,
took on four thugs with knifes and sticks and beat the
hell out of all of them.
I
say... Bull Sh...
Look,
I've been training and teaching self defense for over
40 years. Fighting more than one person at the same time
is not easy... even with proper training. Without it...
it's nearly impossible.
In
a real fight or self defense situation, the adrenaline
is pumping. Tunnel vision prevails. Cognitive thinking
is limited. Fine motor coordination is gone. Things get
crazy.
Hollywood
has us fooled!
The
movies have made martial arts heros look like supermen.
Fighting off gangs of armed attackers with flying kicks
and spectacular moves. Each would be killer, waiting his
turn to attack our hero, as they watch their buddies defeated
one at a time.
Here's
the truth...
I
am here to tell you that if you are attacked by multiple
opponents, you have the fight of your life on your hands.
And... expect to get banged up... at the least!
In
fact, I would venture to say that if you are not properly
trained the odds of you coming out victorious are slim
to none!
In
just a few seconds you will be swarmed upon with punches
and kicks coming from all directions. Not a pretty sight.
What
you can do about it!
To
have a fighting chance you need to know the proper strategies,
tactics and techniques that will give you the best possible
odds of defeating multiple attackers.
Armed
with proper knowledge and some practice, you increase
your chances one hundred fold of walking away from a gang
attack.
Look,
there are no guarantees in life. But doesn't it make sense
to at least prepare yourself for the eventuality of a
multi attack?
Multiple
Attackers DVD
For
a number of years now, many of my video students and subscribers
have asked me to do a video on fighting multiple opponents.
I have been very reluctant to shoot this video for several
reasons.
First,
there is so much misconception about what it really takes
to deal with multiple attackers.
Second,
so many, so called self defense experts, make it seem
so easy, I knew that I would be under heavy criticism
regardless of what I I turned out.
Third,
I know from my experience in adrenal stress response training
that even with proper training and practice that defending
against more than one person at a time is really tough.
My
video would be a guide. A tool to give my students the
very best odds... but not a guarantee of success.
Nevertheless,
I decided that it would truely benefit my students and
followers to have such a step by step training video on
multiple attackers that I finally did produce it.
It's
