The Best Self Defense Device Ever – Your Cell

July 20th, 2009 FighterStreet No comments

Use Your Cell Phone for Self Denese Purposes

Are you in danger? Use your cell phone to call for help!

The Best Self Defense Device Ever

Though you might not yet know it, right now you carry one of the MOST COMMON SELF DEFENSE DEVICES ON EARTH. This self defense weapon is called …the mobile phone (or CELL if you like it better).

Among all the self defense devices, this is the on that almost everybody have, but nobody really use for self defense purposes.

I don’t mean to throw it on your assailant and run away… though it might be quite effective if you have the aim and you cell is one of the heavier ones.

But how would you use it for a self defense and why do I still call it a self defense device, when there is no pepper spray function in it? …another nice idea, don’t you think?

It’s weapon character is hidden in it’s basic purpose and that is to call somebody.

For example when woman feels she is being followed. The basic instinct tells her to go to the safest place and hide there …and that is sadly her home. So this way she would SHOW THE PERVERT WHERE SHE LIVES. Do you think that is a good idea?

May be using a self defense device like a pepper spray would be good, but who actually have the guts to use it? It still is a self defense weapon and people have problems with using weapons and I must say, my students always tell me that they ARE AFRAID to use even self defense devices.

The beauty of the cell phone is that it is inoffensive kind of device. What the women from our example should do, is to take her cell, identify the place she is at and call her man friends to meet her somewhere near. Or simply call the police.

If your battery allows it, DON’T HANG UP! Just put it back to your pocket. The voice evidence will help you and police in further investigation.

Another good example is when you are trying to escape when someone is chasing you (may be to try to rob you or kill you). What you should do is to take the only self defense device you can reliably use during run – your cell. Dial and call the police. Tell them who you are, where you are and what is happening.

The thing is, that the assailant might get caught while chasing or fighting you. Or you might be found when there still can be done something to save your life.

Using this modern weapon will RAPIDLY INCREASE YOUR CHANCES.

You see self defense is not always about kick and punches, but also about the technology and it’s clever use.

Tell your wife or friend how to use it and how can she benefit from it. Tell even YOUR CHILDREN. Self defense is something that should not be overlooked and now that you have realized what kind of self defense device… no …a weapon you have, you have done a big step towards your safety.

Kids Self Defense Tactics – Keep Your Kids Safe

July 20th, 2009 FighterStreet No comments

Selfdefense Tactics

Teach your kids self defense tactics developed exactly for them.

Kids Self Defense Tactics

I hate when people think of a kids self defense as of putting their child in some martial arts school and then they think that their eight year young kid is able to fight a grown adult vith violent intentions.

Let me tell you something. Martial arts classes are a beautiful way how to teach your child how to defend him/her self among peers against bullies for example, but as for kids self defense against adults – there are different and still effective ways how to keep them safe.

When talking about self defense for kids, I would suggest you would teach your kid these gambits.

Kids Self Defense tactics #1
RUN as soon as you see any kind of danger. Leave EVERYTHING BEHIND and run. Use the environment to your advantage. Disappear behind some obstacle, hide among the people, anything would help. Create DISTANCE between you and assailant!

Kids Self Defense tactics #2
SCREAM OUT LOUD! Let people around know that you are IN DANGER!

Kids Self Defense tactics #3
Run towards any source of HELP – group of adults, cop, any people around..

Kids Self Defense tactics #4
Throw anything you got to your assailant’s legs. School bag, books, overturn the dustbin …just do anything to gain some time and slow the guy down. Every second you win more is worth treasure.

Kids Self Defense tactics #5
When being caught, just make it as hard as possible for the one holding you. Twist, bite, scratch in the eyes, turn… just move and don’t stop. Make your self a hard target to get.
Nice tactics when being lifted is to mimic the running. Just run and turn. This makes it very hard to keep strong hold.

Kids Self Defense tactics #6
Fight for as much time as possible. You need time to raise your chances for the help to come, what means for the assailant to have a bigger chance to be caught. As I said before – SCREAM like hell and try to draw attention on what is happening to you.

Kids Self Defense tactics #7
Buy your kid a cell phone (mobile phone) and program your phone numbers under each keyboard button, so the dial would be easier and shorter. Teach your kids to call you whenever they feel they are in danger. Mobile phone is a modern weapon for general self defense and people forget to use it.

Teach your child NOT TO TRUST ANY STRANGERS. They should never ever believe any one they, and especially you as a parent, don’t know. Never ever go anywhere with them.

If they would listen to scum bags and go with them somewhere, there is a chance they will be dragged somewhere in a car or elsewhere.

Kids Self Defense tactics #8
Give your child a PERSONAL ALARM or a SAFETY WHISTLE. This is good for getting attention of other people. Personal alarms are very loud so it can be heard on a very long distance.

Kids Self Defense tactics #9
If your kid is put somewhere near the keys from the car’s ignition, tell them to grab them and TOSS OUT OF THE WINDOW.

Kids Self Defense tactics #10
When being kept on a back seat or in a room, don’t forget to USE THE CELL PHONE (mobile phone). Dial the number and put it in your pocket. Them try to DESCRIBE the WAY and the PLACE are going to. Use sentences like: “Baker street? (simply the name of the street) – Where are we going?!” or “Old hangar? (some description of the place).. What is this place?”

Kids Self Defense tactics #11
Buy your kid a spare cell phone (mobile phone). If your kid will be taken, he/she might be searched for this device. These days you can buy very tiny and cheap cells with only the function of phoning and texting. That is a beautiful thing …you can call it a concealed weapon.
If the common cell will be separated from your child, he/she may have another one with which you can be contacted lately.

Whenever your children are going to be somewhere alone or for example on some trip where you can not have any control upon them, you better teach them these basic kids self defense tactics for their safety.

Kids self defense is taken wrong by teaching them the same regular self defense tactics and martial arts like for adults. You better understand that kids are different and need to be taught more specific systems of self defense.

Be a good parent and be interested in what your children are doing. Become friends so you will get involved in their lives and especially in their protection!
