Establishing the Clinch (Review)

• Measure distance to make sure nobody gets hurt.
• Step correctly.
• Block by combing hair with front arm/hand and covering the other side of face with arm/hand.
• Make contact with bad guys chest and wrap arms around.
• Front hand grabs wrist of arm that is wrapped around bad guy.
• Hips in and head to chest listening to heart beat.

Headlock Escape (Standing)

• Control bad guys far arm to avoid from being punched.
• Step back foot near bad guys foot. Your front foot will be between the attacker’s legs.
• Block bad guy’s far knee.
• Sit and spin ending in modified mount.

The next “Women In Control” women’s self-defense class will start September 6th. The class will take place on Saturdays from 9-10am. Early registration discounts are available. To learn more or to register visit the “women’s class” page.
