Can someone do a video post on how to self defense your way out of a choke hold from behind, please? I keep seeing chokeholds, and I think they are training ICE to put them into practice. People should know how to defend themselves. Thank-you.

A blow to the throat or Adam's apple can stop some, stomping on the arch of the foot or kicking the knees can at least slow them down or use a "genital doorknob" move were the types of moves my father told me to do 8 6 4 7

A small canister of pepper spray in each front pocket. you'll have at least one hand free. Spray at the nose enough should splash up into the eyes. Even if your low a gator is not a mask they'll still breath it in.

In a self-defense class I had decades ago they always said stick your fingers in their eyeballs sockets - or as others have suggested go for the manhood

I would defend against that by shooting the perp in the head before they manage to execute it.

๐จI have seen it in wrestling and other self-defense methods. I am sure people who do Karate/martial art will know the techniques. I will pass this along, LoveKat. ๐

I would like to think a knife deep into an arm ought to release a chokehold. Paradoxically (?), A chokehold can literally kill someone, whereas a knife stab wound to the arm likely would not. But yes, I too would be interested in the self-defense you are seeking for all of us.

Elbows up sharply; step sideways; use your elbow to strike backwards into the midsection of attacker; step back, grab arm and twist back until attacker falls. Step on his head.

Find the pinkie and rip sideways, then foot-stomp (if you can see it) with all you got. If you can drop low enough, hard backwards elbow into the crotch. And then run like hell because there will be more of them.

Grab eyes, ears, nuts, whatever is available, throw head backwards into their face, or jump full force up and backwards so they lose their footing and you land on them. It's time for the citizens of this country to stop cooperating or allowing these individuals to continue their illegal actions.

If you are standing,grab the attacking arm as you simultaneously drop to one knee using the attackers weight against him as he flies over your shoulder and the grip is broken. The faster the better , if he locks in and has a significant weight advantage heโll end up on his back/side still choking u

One more important tip. As soon as you feel a reverse attack on head neck Get that freaking chin down. I used to sneak behind my daughters and put them in a rear naked. Not hard or fast. But they got really good at putting their chin down and buying time Head lock much better than a choke hold

If you get the chin down and the arm. You can also spin out and run. Everything is situational

Going for the eyes works best. If the person is in front of you target their neck with as hard a punch as you can. Most appear fat so forget about their solar plexus, just kick them in the kneecap. Stomping hard on their foot above the toes will definitely cripple a fat mommaโs proud boy ex-con.

This is one of the 25 kata we practice to help our situational awareness. This video is slow, easy for untrained eyes. Twice, the karateka brings fists and forearms together in front of chest. Imagine someone behind him with arms around his chest. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Sxh...

Donโt forget to use your elbows to fuck them up. Do not hit the front of their head with the back of yours. I hope none of us ever have to use these techniques.

I hope so, too. I would rather have an idea of what to do if that day comes, though.๐

Young karate student fascinated by his elderly master. One day, followed the man home where the old man tended his garden. How strange, thought the boy. Why garden? He could not decipher the puzzle. He asked, โWhy?โ Answer, โIt is better to be a warrior in a garden, than a gardener in a war.โ

... oh, but, if you can smash their nose as they come at you from behind, like a woman being grabbed by a man who is taller than her, DO. Ram the back of your head into their fucking nose ...

Hereโs me to the right of my master the day I was awarded first degree black belt. (That was years ago now.) Sensei Toryu has been teaching at JKA Boston for nearly 50 years.

Here's a better answer: Shoot the assailant in the legs BEFORE he can get behind you to get you in a choke-hold.
