![Forms of Self Defence
Avoidance
Being aware of and avoiding
potentially dangerous situations is
one useful technique of self-
defense. Attackers will typically
select victims they feel they have an
advantage against, such as greater
physical size, numerical superiority
or sobriety versus intoxication.
Additionally, any critical situation
inherently puts the defender at a
large initiative disadvantage.These
factors make fighting to defeat an
attacker unlikely to succeed.When
avoidance is impossible, one often
has a better chance at fighting to
escape, such methods have been
referred to as 'break away'
techniques. Understanding the
'mindset' of a potential attacker is
essential if we are to avoid or escape
a potentially life-threatening .
De-escalation
Verbal Self Defense also known as
Verbal Judo orVerbal Aikido,[7] is
defined as using one's words to
prevent, de-escalate, or end an
attempted assault.[8] It is a way of
using words as weapons or as a
shield.This kind of 'conflict
management' is the use of voice,
tone, and body language to calm a
potentially violent situation before
violence actually ensues.This often
involves techniques such as taking
a time-out, and deflecting the
conversation to individuals in the
group who are less passionately
involved, or simply entering into
protected empathic position to
understand the attacker better.
Lowering an attacker's defence and
raising their ego is one way to de-
escalate a potential violent
situation.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/selfdefenceppt-180717071957/85/Self-defence-ppt-8-320.jpg)
![Legal Aspects
The self-defense laws of modern legislation build on the Roman
Law principle of dominium where any attack on the members of the family
or the property it owned was a personal attack on the pater familias and also
on biblical sources, namely Exodus.[13] In Leviathan (1651), Hobbes argues
that although some may be stronger or more intelligent than others in their
natural state, none are so strong as to be beyond a fear of violent death,
which justifies self-defense as the highest necessity. In his 1918
speech Politik als Beruf (Politics as aVocation), Max Weber defined a state as
an authority claiming the monopoly on the legitimate use of force within
defined territorialboundaries.Modern libertarianism characterizes the
majority of laws as intrusive to personal autonomy and, in particular, argues
that the right of self-defense from coercion (including violence) is a
fundamental human right. In this context, note that Article 12 Universal
Declaration of Human Rights states:No one shall be subjected to arbitrary
interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to
attacks upon his honour and reputation. Everyone has the right to the
protection of the law against such interference or attacks.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/selfdefenceppt-180717071957/85/Self-defence-ppt-11-320.jpg)

- 3. Introduction Self-defence is a countermeasure that involves defending the health and well-being of oneself from harm.The use of the right of self-defense as a legal justification for the use of force in times of danger is available in many jurisdictions, but the interpretation varies widely.
- 4. Types of Self Defence • Physical • Mental
- 5. Physical Self Defence Physical self-defense is the use of physical force to counter an immediate threat of violence. Such force can be either armed or unarmed. In either case, the chances of success depend on a large number of parameters, related to the severity of the threat on one hand, but also on the mental and physical preparedness of the defender.
- 6. Mental Self Defence Mental self-defense is the ability to get into the proper mindset for executing a physical self-defense technique. Many martial arts schools and self-defense classes focus primarily on the physical nature of self-defense and often neglect the mental aspect. If you are skilled in the physical aspects of a defensive technique, but lack the mental toughness and tenacity to execute it, you will not be able to perform - especially under certain conditions.
- 7. Law of Self Defence The use of reasonable force to protect oneself or members of the family from bodily harm from the attack of an aggressor, if the defender has reason to believe he/she/they is/are in danger. Self- defense is a common defense by a person accused of assault, battery or homicide.

- 9. Personal alarms Personal alarms are a way to practice passive self-defense. A personal alarm is a small, hand-held device that emits strong, loud, high-pitched sounds to deter attackers because the noise will sometimes draw the attention of passersby. Child alarms can function as locators or device alarms such as for triggering an alert when a swimming pool is in use to help prevent dangerous situations in addition to being a deterrent against would-be aggressors
- 10. Education about Self Defence Self-defense techniques and recommended behavior under the threat of violence is systematically taught in self-defense classes. Commercial self-defense education is part of the martial arts industry in the wider sense, and many martial arts instructors also give self-defense classes.While all martial arts training can be argued to have some self-defense applications, self-defense courses are marketed explicitly as being oriented towards effectiveness and optimized towards situations as they occur in the real world. It should not be presumed however that sport based systems are inadequate, as the training methods employed regularly produce well conditioned fighters experienced in full contact fighting. However, there is a difference between MartialArts, and Self- Defense, and therefore as a general principle, MartialArts is unsuited for Self-Defense application.There are a large number of systems taught commercially, many tailored to the needs of specific target audiences (e.g. defense against attempted rape for women, self-defense for children and teens). Notable systems taught commercially include:
