 Flight or Fight Syndrome

Martial arts styles emphasize motor skills, often using techniques which require fine and complex motor skills - which are unavailable to most people when placed in high-stress situations. A good self-defense program will focus on motor skills the average person can remember, and quickly perform, in unexpected situations.

Translation: there needs to be an emphasis on gross motor skills, which are available to most people when under high stress. This is often referred to as the Flight or Fight Syndrome.

We must also recognize how the brain works. When confronted with any task, the brain “scrolls” through its data base to find applicable principles to apply to the task. If there is nothing in the data base that is applicable, the brain stalls and does not know what to do.

The solution: self defense training and self defense tactics, mastering a PRINCIPLES-based program that works across all types of violence regardless of your experience or your age, size, speed, strength, sex or athletic ability. You can learn in months, not years with self defense videos, you can use at home.
