Self Defence is all about not getting into trouble but, if you do, getting out of it as quickly and safely as possible.
Self defence is for anyone who feels threatened by some one else, and now-a-days this can happen anytime anywhere. It could be road rage - with all the stress of today's roads, traffic jams and delays when you're on tight schedules its no wonder some people feel agitated by it all and some thing snaps. So most of the time a simple block or parry will give every one time to think again and realise that they have crossed the line they cool down, but sometimes the situation will need more drastic action, and that is were your KARATE training will help, because all self defence comes from at least one sort of martial art. It teaches control, so at least the Karateka should not suffer from road rage (we could add shopping rage, airport rage or any kind of rage you care to think of!)
There is a much more sinister threat today - it is worsening, and will continue to get worse - and that is DRUGS. With the growing number of people trying to legalise what they call 'soft drugs' it seems to be almost acceptable behaviour.
! There is no guarantee that anything will work !
