Summary: It is something that we do not want to admit. Male or female, most of us do not want to live in a world where violence is directed toward women. However, the facts can not be denied, and unfortunately, women are targeted for a variety of violent crimes. The National College Women Sexual Victimization Study estimated that between one in four, and one in five college women experience completed or attempted rape during their college years. The study also shows that men tend to be major perpetrator of violent acts against women. While this sends chills up anyone's spine, it becomes painfully obvious that we have to protect ourselves. We have to rise above the fear of experiencing a violent attack, and learn to do something about it. If we let the threat of violent assaults control our emotions, we are giving those aggressors just the thing they are looking for. As women, we have the power to rise above the these threats. The principle way to do this is to learn how to defend yourself.

In this free video series, learn how to get out of a variety of holds and grips. Our expert, Fred Mastison, is a fifth degree black belt. He shares his knowledge with you. Learn how to get out of a shirt grab, a wrist grab, and a crossover grab. Also, learn how to get out a choke, bear hug, and hair grab. These techniques are simple, and it does not matter how strong you are. Most of them are about controlling leverage. So, before you have an attacker, take a moment and learn how to defend yourself. Self defense is one of the most important lessons you could ever take the time to learn.
