90% of what you learn in strip mall dojo's, martial arts schools, self
defense seminars and dvd's will get you killed in a real attack on the
street.
What really counts in a fighting situation is avoiding injuries, while
inflicting enough damage with accurate timing to unload an explosion
of self defense techniques in under 10 seconds of the attack
beginning. Self defense needs to be simple enough to use in a state of
panic and be useful regardless of your shape, physical health or
experience.
