Some women think they can take care of themselves and some can. But if you are a man or a woman there are some situations that nobody can handle. You can take women's self defense to learn skills that might save your life or you can polish the skills you already have. Some people need to learn what dangers are out there and how to avoid them, while others just need to get a refresher on what they have already learned. Here the woman learns to use her hands, legs, feet, and head as a weapon when in close proximity of her enemy or assailant. She will learn the pressure points that will not only injure but demoralize her enemy. Using all the extremities of her body the woman solider will be able to take down a man twice her size. Carry something in your purse or on your person that will be a deterrent to your attacker. A can of pepper spray or mace is great. It is small and can fit into your pocket or purse easily. If you do not have that available use what ever hard object you can find to stop the attacker. A brush or even your purse makes an excellent weapon. The art of women's self-defense teaches women to use the abilities given to them by Mother Nature. Women are naturally stronger in the lower body and must not be afraid to use their legs when defending their person. The women's self-defense course will teach the female to kick or stomp on their attacker and when all else fails, run. The woman needs to understand what rape means so that the can recognize the warning signs. A rape is a sexual assault against a woman's will and without her consent. The victim does not have to be threatened with a weapon or physically restrained. If any sexual act in any orifice is done without consent, then the man has committed a crime. Bite him in the arm or face. Stick your fingers into his nose and try to rip the nostril. You haven't been kidnapped to go to a party. The attacker probably has very dubious plans for you. Attack him like you were fighting for your life. Once you have a chance and the car is stopped, run. If he is trying to get out of the car, stall him by slamming the door on him or picking up an object and smashing his hands, feet or head.
