Importance Of Self Defense

 When it comes to self defense, it is better to have the power and not use it than to need it and not have it.

The ability to protect oneself physically from harm is a basic human right that should be accessible to everyone. Self defense is an often overlooked skill in today’s society, but it is of utmost importance.

We generally hear different stories about rape, murder, kidnapping, burglary etc in the news everyday. There always won’t be help at hand. You need to learn to defend yourself. Self defense is not only for women who need to protect themselves but also for men.

In self defense there are NO RULES!! If you are in danger, in trouble, or in anyway threatened, you do anything and everything in your power to get away and get to safety.

Here are a few reasons why self defense is important:

• To Protect Yourself : There are a large number of people out there in the world who can cause you harm and hurt you, but if you know some basic self defense techniques, then you have better chances of keeping yourself safe at all times.
• Boosts Your Confidence : Knowing that you learnt to protect yourself from harm, you boost your morale and gain confidence you never knew you had.
• Improves Physical and Mental Strength : Learning martial arts improves your physical and mental strength. You develop balance, speed and overall body coordination. It surely teaches you to face your opponent.

As they say it is not called violence when it come to self defense; it is called INTELLIGENCE.
