What are some self defense tips useful for a woman?
The best self-defense strategies and techniques work equally well for men and women, but letâs face it: Women really need them because theyâre assaulted more often than men.
1. TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS
Too many women enroll in a self-defense class after theyâve been assaulted.
2. PRACTICE TARGET DENIA
Donât make yourself an accessible target. The outcome of a battle is often determined before the first blow is struck. When you have the opportunity to escape from a situation before it turns bad, take it.
3. PRESENT YOURSELF WITH CONFIDENCE
Be aware of the message your body sends to those around you. Like animals, human predators target those they consider the weakest or most vulnerable.
4. SET STRONG VERBAL BOUNDARIES
Good verbal skills are an effective self-defense tool, one youâre likely to use more frequently and successfully than any physical technique.
