I noticed he is blocking her path. How does that figure into one’s choice of tactics? When one blocks your exit it could become dicey. Maybe she should turn around, walk around her car onto the grass then continue across the parking lot to the building ignoring him. I wonder if he would stop bothering her then. ? Just asking..
I see your point. …
I see your point. Thanks.

One other side note …
One other side note: Listen to how she uses the word “you” in the assertive portion of the video. It is “never” used as a directive phrase.
Other examples: “Wow, I never even saw (you) waiting.” or “I am sorry I (you) off. Would (you) like me to move?”
Never say never. …
Never say never. Although in clinical standards using I words is correct, in practice it is not such an easy absolute. Certainly I statements are directive and in some circumstances can aggravate the aggressor. But then there are times when being directive is the only way. How would you get a drunk beligerent boyfriend out of your apartment? “YOU need to go now!” is absolutely appropriate if he has not listened to your earlier I statements.

If the jerk is a real jerk raise your palms slightly below your chin and move slowly towards him. When you get within striking range rip a straight palm heel to the nose and make sure you hear the crack which indicates you broke it. Then do another one and kick him in the nuts. When he is on the ground back over him and then drive forward. Repeat till the attacker is an asphalt stain then shop till you drop.

never use the word YOU , even when being assertive. Use ‘I” statements instead.

Learn how to use your envirment to your advantage. Things you can use as shields. Trash cans, chairs, pillars, etc.
Use hot coffee as a weapon (I think Krav Maga teaches that). Know how to use common objects as weapons. A lot people like to be traditional. Training to use swords, sais, nunchuckas, knives, etc. These weapons are not street legal.
A rolled up mag, a drafters pencil, a metal tip pen, umbrella, keys as projectiles, get a small can of hair spray to use as a makeshift mace.

Now, that is the best self defence technique I have seen in a long time. Its about time people start mastering ‘mental akido’ it would not only keep morons from getting hurt but it would make the world a better place. Kudos on the true martial art wisdom. Keep up the good work!
In my early …
In my early security days, I experienced the “passive” response when I was threatened by an enraged homeless guy. As I backed-off and walked away, he cursed at me and he even yelled out some offensive, racial remarks. Last year, I ran into an irresponsible dog owner on the street. He lost his temper. I chose to be not too aggressive/passive, and he eventually did cool down. Will work in normal society, but gangsters/parolees do require additional experience/communication skills.

Good video. Relevant examples of the importance of a person’s response in conflict and how a response can lead to very different outcomes.
