There are simple tips that woman should know about self defense and street safety.
(PRWEB) May 31, 2007 -- "Criminals plan to attack someone who they think is weak or vulnerable. To counter this, women must have a plan too." says Fred Degerberg author of 101 Self Defense and Safety Tips. Go to www.DegerbergAcademyofMartialArts.com to download it for free.
Degerberg said, "If I had to choose the top 5 self defense tips every woman should know, it would be these:
1. Be aware of yourself and your surroundings. Don't let yourself be preoccupied with thoughts of work, school or home. When you're on the street you need to be alert.
2. The most dangerous thing you can do is feel afraid and not act. Fear warns you. Many victims afterwards say that they had a feeling something was going to happen and they ignored it. Listen to your intuition and take action.
3. When it is obvious that you are going to be attacked, take action. By fighting the attack, you only increase your chance of survival. The notion that you will only anger the attacker with your lack of compliance, making him more violent is false. The attacker is already angry and violent. Fight until you know you're safe and can get away.
4. Take aim when dealing with your assailant: the eyes, groin and throat are the most vulnerable areas to strike because they are composed of soft tissue. A successful blow to any one of these three areas on a male will almost guarantee you valuable time to escape.
5. Above all, do not allow the assailant to take you to another location. Do whatever it takes -- the situation grows deadlier when it moves to a more secluded location."
The above tips were excerpted from 101 Self Defense and Safety Tips by Fred Degerberg. Degerberg is a leading national authority on self-defense. He is the owner of the Degerberg Academy of Martial Arts, voted "Best Overall Martial Arts School" worldwide in Black
